Evony version 4.91.0 updates the internal menu structure of the Keep, adds automatic Soul Resonance notification badges, and increases yields across daily and recurring reward chests. However, the update also introduces severe freezing and input lag on the desktop PC client.
To adapt immediately, check your Keep to locate newly nested city management settings, process your pending Soul Resonance prompts, collect your upgraded daily activity chests, and switch critical combat actions to mobile until the PC client is patched.
Reorganized Keep Menus
The update replaces individual floating buttons with consolidated category tabs inside the Keep. Features that previously had dedicated quick toggles—such as monarch details, subordinate city overviews, and passive city settings—are now grouped under secondary sub-menus.
To adjust to the new layout without losing time during combat:
- Open the Keep overview to map where city management toggles currently reside.
- Check your peace shield status and defensive buff timers directly inside the nested menu to confirm they are active.
- Clear your device cache after installing the patch if any menu labels or icons fail to render properly.
Soul Resonance Notification Badges
Version 4.91.0 adds red-dot notification badges for the Soul Resonance system. Previously, tracking resonance upgrades required opening each general's profile manually.
When a notification badge appears:
- Tap the prompt to navigate directly to the eligible general pairing.
- Claim unlocked milestone stat enhancements immediately to ensure active marches receive their passive boosts.
- Convert idle resonance materials and duplicate general tokens flagged by the system.
Upgraded Activity and Event Rewards
Baseline yields have been increased across several daily and recurring reward tracks to better support higher Keep construction and research costs:
- Daily Activity Chests: Point milestones yield larger batches of speedups and refined resource crates.
- Recurring Event Tiers: Milestone tracks for cycling mini-events award higher-tier crafting material chests.
- Target Drop Bundles: Select victory boxes from recurring targets offer higher minimum drop quantities, lowering reward variance when opening chests in bulk.
Claim your active milestone chests before the daily server reset, as event progress bars may recalculate under the updated distribution tables.
PC Client Instability and Workarounds
The native PC version of 4.91.0 suffers from severe stability issues not present on mobile. Players report menu freezes, rendering errors, and game crashes when transitioning between the city view and the world map.
| Issue | Impact | Workaround |
|---|---|---|
| World map transition crash | Troop loss or dropped peace shields | Play high-risk PvP and SvS on mobile |
| Unresponsive menu buttons | Delayed building and research queues | Restart the client and clear local cache |
| UI and texture clipping | Overlapping text and misaligned icons | Lower the in-game display settings |
If you rely on the desktop client, avoid initiating rallies, reinforcing contested alliance buildings, or dropping shields on PC until a stability hotfix is deployed. Keep a mobile device on hand to manage combat situations safely.

The explanation is clear, especially for beginners.
Good guide for Evony players. The updates part was useful.
This saved me time in the early game.
I tried this today and it worked better than my old setup.
