Run an Empire 2019-2022 is back as EMPIRE GO!
Main Post:
We have decided to bring back a version of Run an Empire we discontinued a year ago.
It is now named Empire GO!
Some players have said that this was their favorite version so we decided to roll it out again. It's the same as it was before with:
- Significantly improved load time
- Fixes to the UI
- Some rebalancing
- Online castle competition with no sign-up required
You can find it on both stores:
- App store (iPhone): https://apps.apple.com/us/app/empire-go/id6447459537
- Google play (Android): https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.lgl.run.walk.empirego
Let us know what you think and what you'd like to see in this re-released game. We will keep discussion about the game on this subreddit for now.
Top Comment: If someone has a membership on the run an empire app, will it also count towards empire go?
I need an errand run? Or, I need an errand ran?

Friend says, "What do you need?" My response? I believe run is correct here but just want to make sure.
Top Comment: Take another verb with a 3-way distinction among its present root, simple past tense, and past participle. As u/playtio pointed out, "to run" has a 3-way distinction: "run, ran, run" where the present root and the past participle are the same. This is actually weird. More often, the simple past root and the past participle are the same. Consider a verb like "to complete" with a present root "complete", simple past tense "completed", and past participle "completed." Here, the simple past root and the past participle are the same. Inserted into your phrase, one would say "I need an errand completed." So you definitely need a simple past tense root or a past participle. In order to determine that, let's consider "to do" with a present root "do", simple past tense "did", and past participle "done." Ah, 3-way distinction! I need an errand do. I need an errand did. I need an errand done. Use the past participle. I need a letter written Past participle is used for completed actions, and: I need an errand completed.
