When you choose First Mission to play with game will introduce you to base gameplay first.
You can either follow steps in in-game short tutorial or skip it if you don't want to build in order that game will require from you. Tutorial will introduce you to the most basic aspects of the game so it's quite useful but some players enjoy discovering on their own so it's for you to decide which approach is better for you.
ImportantSave game feature has not been activated yet due to the huge amount of potential errors that may occur during development. This option will be added as soon as we deal with the first errors that bother other players.
All You Need Is Bread

Without bread you can't build, open trading routes or pay your people for their hard work and only thing they do is work for you.

![Builders of Egypt: Prologue - Complete First Mission Guide (Game Mechanic and Goals) image 14](https://gameplay.tips/uploads/posts/2020-03/medium/1583231530_4.jpg)
All of buildings in game need proper access so remember to build roads next to your buildings. If you don't do it, game will notify you about lacking access.
![Builders of Egypt: Prologue - Complete First Mission Guide (Game Mechanic and Goals) image 16](https://gameplay.tips/uploads/posts/2020-03/medium/1583231501_5.jpg)
Empty houses will trigger people arrival. Your houses will evolve once you met housing requirements.
Examples:
- House Level 1 - 5 dwellers.
- House Level 2 - 7 dwellers.
Houses and roads can be found in House and road TAB.

Bazaar And Fire Station
The most important thing in housing evolving process is to supply it with water and delicious, plain food - in First Mission available food are wheat and fish.
- Water is provided by well and regarding food - it's distributed by bazaar's workers.
- Well can be found in Sanitary TAB.

Transport routes for food:
![Builders of Egypt: Prologue - Complete First Mission Guide (Game Mechanic and Goals) image 27](https://gameplay.tips/uploads/posts/2020-03/medium/1583231502_8.jpg)
- Farm (wheat) -> Granary -> Bazaar - > House
- Fishing Wharf (fish) -> Granary -> Bazaar - > House
![Builders of Egypt: Prologue - Complete First Mission Guide (Game Mechanic and Goals) image 29](https://gameplay.tips/uploads/posts/2020-03/medium/1583231509_9.jpg)
One well can support only a few houses so it needs to be placed in strategic spots to cover as many houses as possible. Wells can't be build everywhere so remember to place them near "green zones".
![Builders of Egypt: Prologue - Complete First Mission Guide (Game Mechanic and Goals) image 31](https://gameplay.tips/uploads/posts/2020-03/medium/1583231544_10.jpg)
Second important thing is to prevent buildings from catching fire and for that we have Fire Station. It has quite large radius so you don't need to build a lot of them at the beginning. With your settlement expansion remember to check radius in fires tab and cover city area with fire stations.

Food Production - Wheat, Fish And Granary
As you can see above in order to have proper food distribution you need at least one Granary and bazaars. Bazaars amount depend on how big your settlement is. The more houses you have, the more bazaars you need to met your people expectations.
Wheat farm will not only give you wheat but also supply of straw, needed at Brick Maker to produce bricks .

![Builders of Egypt: Prologue - Complete First Mission Guide (Game Mechanic and Goals) image 56](https://gameplay.tips/uploads/posts/2020-03/medium/1583231588_20.jpg)
Trading with another city is the most beneficial part about this game.
Traders will pay you for your goods in bread. Once in a while they will visit your city and go straight to your Stockpiles to see what are you offering.
Goods for export can be set up in Economy TAB.
Important: Lowering wages or making your taxes higher won't give you the same profit as trading with another city.
Trade route costs 200 bread. In First Mission you can trade only with one city - Abydos.
Fulfilling First Mission's Goals
Once you fulfill all of First Mission's goals you can play freely and expand your majestic settlement!
From time to time other cities will ask you for additional goods such as clay, straw, brick, pottery. Try to fulfill them, the more bread you have the better for you, especially when you want to expand and build an empire.
