Small tools and helpers for a better gaming experience in Forge of Empires
Before you have any doubts. This extension does not violate Inno's rules. Since it does not make any clicks or other automations for you and only reads data in the background, it is permitted.
This little helper appears as a small menu and helps you with calculations or statistical analyses.
Furthermore, the extension currently shows in the form of a sidebar ingame:
- Cost calculator (costs of the respective places)
- own account calculator (order of deposits + own account calculator)
- own FP production (how many FP does my city produce?)
- Outpost - Goods overview
- Negotiation assistant
- and much more
You can send your city data to the website foe-helper.com to plan a city rebuild or give other players the opportunity to optimise your city.
Errors or wishes can be reported directly in the Github:

- Works Excellent. Complaints/Issues addressed on the GitHub, NOT HERE. I don't know why people complain here when they should be over at the GitHub. Before you post a complaint, PLEASE check the GitHub to see if other people have the same/similar issue and whether it is being addressed. A lot of the one- and two-star review complaints here have been fixed already. Negotiation tool is a lifesaver! The incident tool is also very helpful because it tells you how many and where they might be. There's so many tools and various features are constantly getting updated.

- The best addon to FOE ! Thanks for all the fixes you have been done caused of Innos neverending change strategy...
- Chris Armour
- Been playing for years and I would be LOST without this amazing bit of software...that fact that it is free and a labor of love for the dev team that keeps it running makes it even better IMO. Thanks team for all your efforts!!!!!!!!!!
- Lucy Fur
- An essential addon for Forge of Empires. This tool literally takes the pain out of the game by doing all the things Inno should have done for players. Unlike Inno games, the FoE Helper team actually listen to feedback and give people the things that improve game play. I would pay for this.
- Proudly Toxic
- Thank you FoE-Helper team for making this brilliant addon. I wouldn't be playing the game without it.
- Ruby Gloom
- I don't know why people are giving this tool a low rating. The addon didn't break, it was because of Inno changing things that the tool couldn't work and now they have fixed it. Its the best thing about the game.
- Maven FoE
- Absolutely essential tool for playing FoE. The dev team are highly committed and brilliant.
- Scott Stevenson
- GB Calculator just got broke. Only the most favorite tool in the kit. Broke. Thumbs down Edit... Thanks for explaining the changes. I will be more patient. I hope they cn fix it!!! Thaks again
- John Davenport
- I wouldn't play FoE without this tool. Kudos to the developers who volunteer their time for little or no reward. They have to deal with a lot of complexity and changes released by Inno without any notice. Shame on the those who do not understand this. My suggestion is you should not be using the tool. Go back to your caves.
- Henry Money-Coutts
- without this tool, I wouldn't play the game
- Boot Nreboot
- it doesn't do any good to write poor reviews here when it breaks. It breaks because FOE made changes to the game. Give them a chance to fix FOE-Helper once FOE figures out what they are doing. If you can do the programing to write your own FOE-Helper, go right ahead and post it to the Web Store and figure out how to fix it every time FOE makes a change.. I myself, I've been playing FOE since the beginning, will be 14 years this September. FOE-Helper is invaluable to playing the game and managing my city to optimize it making it stronger and more efficient. So thank you FOE-Helper for all you do for this great tool!!

- Michał Szatanek
- Worked fine before. My main tool - Architecture pearls building assistant stopped working lately on other players pearls buildings (Chrome + Opera)
- SuperRosieJo
- Was working great and then, suddenly and without warning, GB Calculator has been disabled. Can't fix it - happened to a lot of us in our Guild. Disappointing because we use it so much.
- Elbow Coffee Cup
- Worked great until the update tonight. The window that pops up when I click settings, is see thru on Chrome. I can't read anything on any of my tabs. Please fix this on Chrome
- Rob Allen
- Really useful
- Francois Pittion
- Excellent add-on
- Gene Hunt
- What has happened to the checkbox in Town Overview to show roadless buildings?
- Gary
- Useless. I have only been trying to use in for a few hours and it has stopped working 4 times already. I keep having to uninstall and re-install it. The re-start my PC
- Matija Petrak (bolesneek)
- Versatile FoE tool that is essencial for anyone interested in keeping track of your town and faster progress :)
- Jamie Goss
- No longer working on beta
- Clau Puscasu
- Starting today on the beta world FOE-HELPER is no longer loading, on the other worlds (Ro) it works fine. I mention that I play on Google-Chrome.
- Reg Bryson
- Doesn't load on startup quite often. When it does however absolutely great.
- PartyPoison
- great add-on!
- Mikhail Kropotov
- I won't play Forge of Empires without it.
- Kiko
- IN GUILD BATTLEGROUNDS , NEGOTIATION HELPER DOSENT WORK!!!
- Fandy M Saputra
- Solver running very slow now, even in 12 threads. most of the time it stopped half way, after half-day or more solving something. so its not finished.
- Legitimate Human
- Very helpful but randomly refuses to open on startup
- Slobodan Petkovic
- Game changer extension for playing Forge of Empires
- rick howell
- I did everything possible to retrieve my foe toolbar but it's not showing up in chrome!
- Sir Spamalot
- An absolute star of an extension. The game gets increasingly mental-labour intensive as you go up the ages and this tool does so much of that for you. I would say it's essential past Bronze Age! Even more so if you help to run/organise a Guild. Negates the need for many of the notes and spreadsheets I used to keep. Also great for newbies, to help them progress faster. Please never stop supporting this - with the game getting increasingly complex over the last few years I genuinely don't think I could continue to play without it. Thank you! xxx
- Oliver Sauter
- Works perfectly. Chrome is the issue.
- Mutiny in Heaven
- I am angry I can no longer get this toolbar on chrome. I am seriously considering switching browsers
- Ama G
- Ditto others who are chiming in to support this extension. It's essential for many users, works extremely well, and I'm not aware that it's caused any problems.
- Eryn Baugh
- Not sure what the Chrome admins are having a fit about but they need to work with this developer and get this extension into a supported state IMMEDIATELY. Forge of Empires is an economy game. There are so many facets to it that the human brain cannot process all of those details. This extension is simply a statistical analysis tool that crunches all that data down to usable chunks for the player to be able to process. It has multiple widgets built into it and the most critical is the Great Buildings contribution calculator. Without that capability, the 1.9 threads will grind to a halt and this game is essentially dead.
- Julie Rogers
- Will have to switch browsers since Chrome no longer supports this extension. It is a crucial part of playing my favorite game
- Carl Palmer
- Don't play without this extension! Extremely helpful, full of all sorts of tools that makes the game better
- Dawn Withers (Photography By Dawn)
- This made FOE much more fun & took out some of the tedious stuff. Chrome has taken away the extension. FOE helper still works on FireFox. Good bye Chrome!
- Larry Altobelli
- I think your extension is great!!! I played for a few years without it. Ugh! I would no longer be playing FoE without the help of your creation. Thank you!
- Chris Murphy
- This is a very useful tool for the game. It has features that touch almost every aspect of gameplay and takes a lot of the mental math out of the equation. Day in and day out, it saves you all sorts of time helping you progress in the game.
- Tomislav Kozic
- On the beta server, all functions are working, but on the live servers, everything is not working as it should for a couple of days
- Sierra G
- I've liked & come to depend on it but version 3.10.1.0, issued last week of February 2025, is broken. The Town Overview map is blank and the Production Overview and Building Efficiency windows do not open. A post to GitHub says these and other problems caused by same issue & to be fixed in next release, but its been at least three days, maybe five, without my Helper so I don't understand why the previous version has not been pushed to Chrome Web Store.
- Mr. Toga
- This is great !
