Quick answer

Classic is Xterium's fast-paced universe for players who know the genre: big mining numbers, endless progression levels, a global modernization center, and a second galaxy with bonus planets. Strong economy and active PvP. Played in the browser on any device, with no download.

What makes Classic different

Classic is the "old-school" Xterium in spirit, but with a high tempo and big numbers. Unlike War of Alliances, which focuses on collective alliance warfare, Classic bets on individual progression with no ceiling: levels and achievements here are endless, mining is measured in big numbers, and the second galaxy opens up bonus and alliance planets.

Who it's for

  • Genre veterans — players who came from the first Xterium, OGame, or Astro Empires.
  • Big-number fans — growth with no cap, endless levels.
  • Economy lovers — three resources, complex production chains, efficient mining.
  • Active PvP fans — faster attacks, shorter planet locks.

Who it's NOT for

  • Newcomers — the modern UI and onboarding are better in WoA.
  • Players who want seasons with progress resets — that's what Reborn is for.

Game tempo

High. Big mining numbers and dynamic development mean progress is visible fast. The global modernization center speeds up leveling, and endless levels give growth with no ceiling. This is a universe for active play, not for a slow "set it and forget it" approach.

Economy

Classic's strong suit. Three resources (metal, crystal, deuterium), complex production chains, and optimization by price-to-output ratio. Experienced players build real empires with resource exports and trade fleets.

Second galaxy

Classic's unique twist (shared with Reborn), which War of Alliances doesn't have: an extra galaxy with bonus and alliance planets. It expands the room for expansion and adds new development goals.

PvP

More active than in WoA: faster attacks, shorter planet locks — a more dynamic, "shooter-like" PvP. Fleet preservation is tougher — for players who like risk.

Alliances

Alliances exist, but they're less "mandatory" than in WoA. Many top players go solo or in small teams. Alliance wars happen, but less often and on a smaller scale.

Platforms

  • Browser only — Classic is played in the browser on any device, with no download. Classic has no native apps: those belong to War of Alliances (Android and iOS) and Reborn (Android).

Topics for experienced players

  • Mining optimization (resource min-maxing).
  • Deuterium-saving strategies for the fleet.
  • Endless levels — how to plan growth with no ceiling.
  • Second galaxy — when and how to settle it.
