Ikariam is the newly free browser game and the player`s challenge is to lead a people through the ancient world. To build towns, trade and conquer islands. So, what is ikariam? Here is the definition from the ikariam tips and it says that: Ikariam is an online real-time strategy game where you have to manage your resources to extend your imperium from a small settlement in a forsaken island to a complex network of cities and colonies. Its theme is based around the Mediterranean coast that saw many civilizations come and go, trade and fight. These would cross the sea to meet other cultures, sometimes with trading purposes, other with more aggressive intentions. Keeping this very spirit, Ikariam is bases around two concepts: trade and fight your neighbors to get the desires and rare resources that your cities need to keep expanding.

My classmates try playing the said game and afterward during our vacant time before our class starts, they were discussing what are the techniques and how to play it more strategic way. And what I’ve seen to their faces, i think they were starting to be addicted to the game.
