Evony: Free Forever

Evony; it seems like only yesterday that I began to play this online war-game oh wait, it was! What attracted me to the website all those hours ago? I'd have to say it was the widespread advertising on other websites, and the promise of something for nothing during these recessionary times. I am glad to say I am not disappointed. The set-up took only a few minutes, and though faced with a momentary confusion the first time I saw that "town" view, with icons flashing and text scrolling, soon I was motoring through the "Quests", finding my way around the game and feeling all the more accomplished for it.
Your town comes equipped with a town hall and several empty lots. Then, following the prompts of those scrolling texts I mentioned, you click on the "Quests" icon. This very helpful dialogue box then persuades you that building a cottage on one of those empty lots might be a good idea, to boost your population, you know? People won't come to live in your city to sleep on the ground, now will they? So the quests icon gives you these lovely little tasks for a while and it's all happy and dandy. Your prestige goes up, up, up, along with all those other numbers on the side of your screen, and before you know it, "Alliances" are made known to you. They are when a group of Lords (Oh yes, you get to be a Lord in this game, too!) come together with the purpose of being in an Alliance. I joined one because my Quests told me to, but there are some positive side-effects! You either apply to one through your Embassy (Yes, you have an embassy! Well, if you follow the quests you do) or go into the world chat, make your Alliance-joining intent known and wait for an invitation. Alliances are my favourite part of this game. It's based on that philosophy, "I got your back you got mine." Though you will be under the 7-day Beginners Protection, meaning you can neither attack, nor be attacked by another Lord; you can be safe in the knowledge that, once those enemies come a-knocking at your gates, you're not alone.
Oh, and you can also conquer other places, like mountains and deserts and forests and swamps to make your city better, too, which is fun. If you conquer a "flat", you can have more than one city, build up an empire, and that's when you really start lording it up! So what makes Evony a cut above all the other internet war-game sites? I don't know, but I do know that my first venture into an online-gaming community has been very pleasurable and not scary at all. 10/10

Hey guys. So let's start off by addressing the old Evony game ads. Yeah, ok. It was a little bit of using women to sell, taken to a whole new level. Now, I'm sure you've heard by now that the game has nothing to do with semi-nude elves calling you master but that's besides the point.

This game has become one of my addictions. With careful consideration to the minute detailing of time and sequences of running a city, you are in essence playing King, or Queen (Lord and Lady as they refer to you ...

I thought the game was the best game in the whole entire universe and when I saw Evony I was so happy that I could play a game I could relate to because I'm a master swordman and my mom,dad and brothers say that I'm a HERO because I stoped a pack of coyotes from eating my family and I love to attack things that attack me after that pack of coyotes atacked me I wasn't afraid of anything ever again. I actually look forward to having something attacking me at night and at daylight because then I ca ...

Upon first seeing advertising for Evony: Age I like all players I was intrigued. One second you saw a raging knight, the next a scantily clad seductress. I decided try it with no hope of more than my curiosity being aroused. There were the odd players who left, claiming frustration over false advertising, no doubt expecting more scantily clad women. However, I did appreciate the marketing strategy toward people to help pass the time at the office and other such venues. As Lord Ravensfeld of Rav ...

If you're like me and like computer games but grow tired of them getting more and more demanding on your pc then you should take a look at one of the fastest growing games on the Internet - even more so if your pocket is hit as hard as mine in the credit crunch as this one they claim is free forever!

Evony is created in the same vein as Civilisation, Age of Empires etc and set in medieval times - with the aim of the game to dominate your enemies and grow your Alliance to No. 1 !

You first star ...
