Areas
over the hill has 5 areas in 2 regions: The Valhallas - Canada (Emerald Lake, Gimli Ridge, Asgard Mountain) and Algeria (Tassili n'Ajjer Desert, Aurès Mountains). Each area is 4 x 4 km. The first area of each region, Emerald Lake and Tassili n'Ajjer Desert, is owned from the start, so both regions are open from the first game; an exit portal opens the next area of its region.
