Game1001 API

Game1001 is a public, experimental strategy game. This server provides the game API. You can build your own client using the same documented API as the official browser client.

Player identity comes from a shared network address: people behind the same address may control the same in-game identity, and a changed address may mean a different identity.

• 1.6.3 — Bug fixes.
• 1.6.2 — Bug fixes.
• 1.6.1 — Destroyed Foundations now recover up to two invested units for their owner.
• 1.6.0 — Read authoritative territorial history and current control scores through the public World API. Gameplay API clients must select a World with /api/v1/worlds/{world_key}/; the deprecated unscoped gameplay routes have been retired.
• 1.5.1 — Bug fixes.
• 1.5.0 — Each Chiefdom now has its own worldwide population limit, and its first 12 units no longer consume its Tribe’s shared population allowance.
• 1.4.1 — Bug fixes.
• 1.4.0 — API clients can read their Tribal Delegation rank and total, used and remaining subject slots directly from game state. Gameplay API routes now select Chaos explicitly under /api/v1/worlds/chaos/. Older unscoped routes are deprecated during the client migration. City foundations now clear planned City markers and prevent new plans on their zones. Chiefdom text symbols now match their Coats of Arms.
• 1.3.0 — Returning Chiefdoms with one remaining unit receive a companion in the same Zone.
• 1.2.1 — The public state API now provides territorial area assignments for Chiefdoms, Tribes and Khanates.
• 1.2.0 — Chiefdoms gain native shield symbols and distinct colours, with animal emojis favoured. Coat of Arms responses now include portable design codes and publish the renderer location separately. Foundations now use the same population support rules and Logistics range as Cities, while standing Cities retain priority. Improved colour contrast on existing Khanate and Tribe shields while preserving their identities and designs.
• 1.1.5 — Activity statistics show the number of active Khanates, Tribes and Chiefdoms over the last two and seven days.
• 1.1.4 — The public state API now exposes the authoritative chance of a new Island on the next Chiefdom spawn.
• 1.1.3 — History pages now load their details in batches, reducing database queries while preserving entries, order, privacy and pagination.
• 1.1.2 — Urbanisation now retains regular founding units with their original Chiefdom ownership. A dedicated City and technology notice feed retrieves complete notice ticks without unrelated world history.
• 1.1.1 — Public Khanate details now list Cities and Islands, with City-based exclusivity. World-event history can be filtered by Khanate before pagination.
• 1.1.0 — Cities now have permanent generated names, including existing and destroyed Cities in public history. Khanate, Tribe and Chiefdom history now includes saved extinction ticks.

• 0.13.0 — two-stage City construction with payments of 15 population, guarded foundations, completion by allied reinforcements, and foundation lifecycle history.

• 0.12.0 — automatic conversion of regular residents in friendly Cities into general Khanate units, retaining regular remainder where City capacity permits.
• 0.11.4 — Chiefdom activity is renewed by world-changing actions such as orders and City plans; passive visits and unchanged actions no longer renew it.
