The School is a building that automatically distributes and sells Education and Magical Knoweldge to nearby houses, and will also research new Technologies. To check research progress and tech details, press ""r"" in game while building is not selected.

Houses must be connected to the School by pathway. A fully upgraded level ten house wants 3 points of Basic Education, and 6 of Magical Knowledge.

Inventory Items[ | ]

The School does not make items like production buildings. They have a list of items they will purchase to supply the houses. These items are what the School will purchase.

(Image, screenshot)

The buildings that provide goods for the School store are the Labratory (Natural Knowedge 1, 2, and 3, and Industrial Knowledge 1, 2, and 3) Workshop (Books) Lumber Mill (Paper) and Enchanter (Enchanted Book) for Education. Unlike Markets, the School does not provide coins but instead grants Reasearch Points in either General, Industrial, Natural, Magical, or Elemental. Star research points are gained at the Omni Temple. Points are spent to unlock new Technologies.
