B. Issues with Bookstore Access Codes
After purchasing an access code from a bookstore website please note there may be a slight delay in fulfilling your orders, however since they are fulfilled by the bookstores themselves please check in with their customer assistance by email or telephone.
If you have problems logging in with an access code from a bookstore then notify the bookstore to get a replacement or to look into the situation. Please note that individual codes can only be redeemed once, so if you have previously redeemed a code and created an account, log in at play.eigames.com/login instead.
- Account/ Login Issues
- Technical
- Up to date Chrome or Firefox (update / restart browser if necessary)
- Latest Edge
- Latest Safari
*We do recommend using up to date Chrome if you experience issues on Edge or Safari.
B. Checking your Internet connection
Are other sites experiencing slow loading times?
Are videos on other sites lagging as well?
Check if a better connection is available, reserving game time for times when you have access to a good bandwidth as the game relies on the use of video.
3. Checking your computer’s performance
Our games are interactive, so they need some computing resources.
If you are experiencing issues, please make sure browser tabs and other programs running in the background are closed completely.
Finally, restart the computer and try accessing the game with no other programs or tabs in your browser open.
In order to get the best experience we suggest when playing you should close all other internet windows and ensure you have a strong internet connection. If you are using WiFi then please remember that your connection is stronger the closer you are situated to the router.
If you still have questions or are encountering persistent issues please send us an email at Citizens@eigames.com answering the following questions:
- What operating system and browser are you using? What is the exact version?
- Are you experiencing any issues outside of the game?
- What is your bandwidth and connection speed?
- Please be as specific as possible and describe the issues being experienced. A screenshot or video demonstrating the issues you are encountering will go a long way to let us help you!
