Here is a guide to playing the game Territorial IO:

1. Choose a region/territory to start with. You only start with a small dot so pick a spot close to where you want to build up your territory.

2. Build up your territory by claiming adjacent land. Click on the unclaimed land next to your territories to claim it for your nation.

3. Use your armies wisely. Your armies march out automatically to claim new land. Try to use them strategically to claim key areas first.

4. Avoid overextending yourself. Make sure you have enough armies and strength to defend the land you claim. Claiming too much land when you’re still small can lead to losing territory quickly.

5. Work with allies. You can form alliances with other players by the same color. Coordinate to take over larger territories together.

6. Attack enemy bases. March your armies to enemy territory and capture their bases to weaken them. This reduces the number of armies they can spawn.

7. Defend your bases. Make sure to leave some armies at your bases to defend them from enemy attacks. Losing bases means losing armies and strength.

8. Upgrade your nation. As you gain more land and capture bases, you will earn research points to upgrade your nation’s strength, army spawn rate, and base health. Use these upgrades wisely.

9. Watch out for airstrikes. Larger nations can launch airstrikes which can take out large chunks of your territory. Try to rebuild quickly after an airstrike.

10. Have fun! The goal is simply to control as much territory as possible. Work with allies, take risks, and try different strategies as you play.

That covers the basics of how to play and be successful in the online territory controlling game Territorial IO.
