Tribal wars, another cool browser based online game that I know from my friend.  

U control a village in a continent with LOTS of other villages surrounding u. Like usual, u have to build ur villages to be stronger so that u can live on in this game and try to be the best. U start with a small village, small resources, and 4 days of protection.

During these 4 days protection, u can build ur village with ease because no other villages can attack u. These 4 days protection is designed to protect u from other people that has started first before u, so that u have time to build ur village to be strong enough before u got attacked from others.

U have to build ur troops from barracks, stable and workshop. Barracks produces spear fighter, swordsman, axemen and archers. Stable mainly produces cavalry troops which consists of scout, light cavalry, mounted archer, heavy cavalry. Workshop produces ram and catapults to help u destroy other villages's walls and buildings. Each troops have their own specialty, strong and weak points.

U have to keep growing ur resources (consists of wood, clay and iron) to build buildings, troops, research, and other things. U can levelling up ur mines to increase the production rate of these resources, or u can get more from attacking and raiding other villages.

What's more, u can play with ur friends and make a tribe (ur own group) that helps each other (trade resources, aids in attacking and defending, etc).

Like utopia, this game is played online with other people all over the world and based on real time. Real time means u need a set of time to build ur troops, buildings, researching, etc. For example, to build a spear fighter u need time about 10 minutes (which decreases if u levelling up ur barracks). Other example is that ur troops would need about 30 minutes to attack other villages that is very near u and go back to ur village (this time can increase a LOT if u attack other villages that is very far from u).

This game is free to play, though there is a premium account that can give u good advantage if u pay for it (like bigger maps, better organizing info, more queue for buildings assignment, etc).

Here is the link for the game : Tribalwars

This game is started to feel very fun when u get ur second village and become better as u got more of villages. But then after u got more than 4-6 villages, the game become repetitive and boring.

I was playing it for about 2-3 months. Getting big and even the biggest in my tribe. But then again, when u got bigger, u have so much villages to manage that it took lots of ur time. Not to mention, that it become repetitive to just noble a village again and again. Nevertheless, the game is good enough to keep u company for a while and as a variation of game.
