New Online Travian 4 Review – GamePlay

Travian 4 is a browser-based title from German developer Travian Games. According to RTSGuru.com Lead Writer Bill Murphy, it’s a deeply addicting multiplayer strategy title. Bill’s got a lot more to say about Travian 4 in our exclusive review. Check it out!

Travian is an anomaly in the browser game genre: it’s a remarkably deep and addictive multi-player strategy title.  It’s spawned several clones, including an Ultima-flavored one.  Developed by German studio Travian Games, it’s apparent to this reviewer that the staff has drawn inspiration from another German-made game: The Settlers of Catan.  And I mean that in the best way possible.  Travian, for those who have played it in its handful of other versions since 2004, is a different kind of strategy title that helps to while away the boring hours at work like no Zynga game can.  Equal parts military strategy, city building, and exploration Travian has a lot to offer for the low price of “free.”
