Please leave comments/rep if you like this guide and start playing (or just if you like it ), I can go further, but won't unless I see intrest.

Hyperiums, The Endless Strategy & Diplomacy Game

Hyperiums is...
- a game of strategy & diplomacy
- played by thousands
- browser based
- playable from anywhere
- a very active community
- easy to learn, hard to master
- running since 01/2001

Hyperiums is not...
- a flashy 3D game
- a space ship simulator
- a First-Person Shooter

Ok, to start off, look at this slide show:
http://www.hyperiums.com/show/slide0.html

Like what you see? Time to create an account... Just go through the short sign up process, join "protected supercluster" (SC6) and bam, you have your account! Now you have gotten your first planet, and you have 600,000. What I reccomend to do, is first, research scouts tecnology (clicking on the tree in top left corner), then build exploits (as seen in the trade page) and set up trade relations to equal the amount of exploits you have built. unless you have a Xillor Techno, in this case, build 2 factories before investing in exploits.

Ok, so you may think hyps is looking kind of boring... but it isn't! don't drop out, now you need to find an alliance... if you have joined as I said, you are in protected superculster (SC6) therefore, you have a few alliance to chose from... these alliances can be viewed @: Hyperiums political maps - Supercluster 6 [I reccomend joining the alliance Pro], this can be done by contacting the alliance recruiters:

I reccomend player messaging them (not emailing)...

Alright now, you have messaged them, you have your planet, now what to do? relax, chances are, if you are looking at this, you play more then one online game, so play those... wait about a day. when you get back on, you should have some income generated... invest again in exploits, and wait again ^^

As soon as you are in your alliance, they are your family, they will tell you what to do now, so this guide is about finished .

I would like to make some extra notes about hyperiums however:

1] If you find yourself lacking time, then join the RLF game, instead of normal one.

2] There are quite a few unspoken rules... don't insult players that you see people respecting, and don't judge by rank... (for just a few, you will learn)

3] Join the mIRC channel! for instructions, ask your alliance memebers (if you want to download whole thing), but for an easy way, go to Mibbit.com Webchat, then go to "other server" enter: us1.irc.delgurth.com and in channels enter: #hyperiums and also enter your alliance channel.

4] Read the beginners guide! Do this by clicking "Help" right next to the logout button. Posting every little thing in the help forum is annyoing, so don't do it.

I love hyps, I can check it on my iPhone, whenever I want to, but it also provides a diverse community, where I can meet people from all around the world, and have fun .

Don't try and hack hyps, there are several bugs I will share with you if I get enough peoples interest, but for now, this is all.

Finally, if you have any other questions, PM me in hyps, my name is Belgarion, I am an experenced player, I have played for 5 years and am in a very good alliance .
