| − | Score |
+ | '''Score''' is a measure of how much a player has achieved in Polytopia. Points are earned in four categories: Army and Territory, Cities, Monuments and Temples, and Science. Points are lost if a [[city]] is captured by an enemy, a building is [[Destroy|destroyed]], or a unit is killed or [[Disband|disbanded]]. |

| − | === Earning Points === |
||
| − | There are various ways in which points can be earned. |

| − | * [[Units]]: 5 points per [[Stars|star]] of a unit's cost, e.g. 10 points per [[Warrior]] (since each Warrior costs 2 stars) |
||
| ⚫ | |||
| − | ** Note: [[Super Unit|Super Units]] "cost" 10 stars. This is evident when [[Disband|Disbanding]] them (doing so returns 5 stars) and by the fact that they are worth 50 points. |

| − | + | Cities: |
|
| − | * New [[cities]]: 100 points (excluding the 180 points from territory) |

||
| − | ** Population (harvesting resources like [[Organization|fruit]] and [[Hunting|game]], building buildings like [[Lumber Hut|Lumber Huts]] and [[Sawmill|Sawmills]], etc.): 5 points per population gained |
||
| − | ** The remainder between the points from population and the total of 50 points for upgrading the city is gained when the city upgrades. |
||
| − | *** Example: upgrading a city to level 2 requires 2 population (which provides 10 points). At the time of the upgrade, another 40 points are gained for the upgrade itself, for a total of 50 points. |
||
| ⚫ | |||
| + | * [[Cities]]: 100 points plus 50 points per level above level 1. |
||
| ⚫ | |||
| + | **Each [[population]] gained is worth five points, and upgrading to level 2 gives a 40 point bonus, upgrading to level 3 gives a 35 point bonus, etc. for a total of 50 points per level above level 1. |

||
| − | * Losing a city loses however many points the city is worth. |

| − | * When unit dies or is disbanded, its point value is also lost. |

| − | * When a building is destroyed, the points it provides (from population or from its status as a moument) are lost. |

| − | == Difficulty Bonus == |

| − | In the [[Singleplayer|Perfection]] game mode, a "difficulty bonus" is applied to your score at the end of the game. The base base difficulty bonus is 100% for Easy opponents, 120% for Normal opponents, 140% for Hard opponents, or 180% for Crazy opponents. An additional 10% bonus is added per opponent. |
||
| + | * [[Technology]]: 100 points per tier of the technology. |
||
| − | For example, a game with two Easy opponents would have a 120% difficulty bonus. If your score at the end the end of Turn 30 in such a game was 10,000 points, your final score (after the difficulty bonus is applied) would be 12,000 points. (Note that if you had the same score at the end of Turn 30 in a game with 3 Crazy opponents, the final score would be 21,000 points.) |

Score is a measure of how much a player has achieved in Polytopia. Points are earned in four categories: Army and Territory, Cities, Monuments and Temples, and Science. Points are lost if a city is captured by an enemy, a building is destroyed, or a unit is killed or disbanded.
The following is a breakdown of how score is calculated.
Army and Territory:
- Units: 5 points per star of a unit's cost. Super units are worth 50 points each. (They have a theoretical cost of 10 stars.)
- Territory: 20 points per tile in the player's territory.
- Exploration: 5 points per explored tile.
Cities:
- Cities: 100 points plus 50 points per level above level 1.
- Each population gained is worth five points, and upgrading to level 2 gives a 40 point bonus, upgrading to level 3 gives a 35 point bonus, etc. for a total of 50 points per level above level 1.
- Park: 250 points each.
Monuments and Temples:
Science:
- Technology: 100 points per tier of the technology.
