Travian

Travian is a building strategy game set in the period of classic antiquity. Gamers take the part of being chief of a village of either Romans, Gauls or Germans. Each nation has its own advantages and disadvantages.

Right after registration, gamers start building their village up from only one main building and few fields for producing ressources. As soon as gamers have erected the first few basic buildings, interaction with other gamers becomes possible. There are alliances to forge, a market place for trading, and wars to be waged with the help of trained units.

The goal of the game is to use the right combination of tactics to make a small village become a mighty empire, and finally build a world wonder level 100, which will ensure you the sought-after victory that round.

While Travian at the beginning can easily be played with an active commitment of only 20 to 30 minutes a day, as the game continues, commitment increases. Diplomatic contacts, trade connections and supplying for villages leads to growing identification with the game. And so, many gamers keep playing for up to a year.

As a rule, participation in Travian is free of charge. However, a fee is charged for several premium functions which become more and more attractive to advanced players.
