   2. The world map, island map and town screens have been redesigned and now have a higher resolution.
      • The 'left menus' on the main screen have been replaced by new elements: the navigation elements on the world map are now located at the bottom of the screen and can be faded in and out by clicking on the control cross in the middle of it.
   3. On the island screen you can navigate to another island by entering the coordinates using a similarly redesigned menu.
      • On the left-hand side of the screen on the town screen you can now reach the 'Troops in the town', 'Premium-Trader', 'Dummy packages', 'Building construction list', 'Dismiss units' and 'Espionage' (in other towns with your spies) screens.
   4. The minimum resolution display of Ikariam (1024x768 pixels) remains the same as the old layout. However, the islands and towns are now larger, meaning that sometimes they may not be completely visible.
      1. By dragging the mouse, each of the displays can be moved so that the non-visible sections can be seen.
      2. If this method is not possible, you can also use the directional control at the bottom of the screen.
   5. The buildings and many elements of the main screen have been redrawn and adapted to suit the new layout.

   1. Can now be dismissed in all of your own towns, independent of whether there is a barracks or shipyard there or not.
3. Towns that can be entered
   1. Ally towns, occupied towns, towns with occupied ports and towns where you have a garrison right can now be 'entered' much like your own towns or towns that you spied on.
   • This towns can be recognized by a green arrow next to the town name.
4. Animations
   1. Alongside the whales and dolphins on the world map there are now a multitude of further animations in Ikariam.
   2. If the performance of your computer, or the internet connection not be sufficient for these, the animations can be turned off in the game options.
