    Advantages Advantages make friends

    Disadvantages Disadvantages none

    hi there i have played travian for over 7 years and find it great, as i have made loads of new friends from the game, so all is good, and i will keep playing it till it ends, you only have to have duals to help you stay safe in the game and not get res or lose your troops to attackers, but some or most of your attackers can be spoken to and they will then stop attacking, and it is also about team work so you need to be good at keeping up with the game as well, and thats how you get to make new friends from around the world, so if any one says it's no good just try it for your self :). ... more

    2 Stars Sad, pointless, never-ending, poor and quite frankly, stupid. 18/07/2012
    User doesn't recommend the product

    Advantages Advantages it's free

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Poor graphic content, bad existing users, not 'newbie' friendly.

    Travian, 'the online multiplayer', well, there's not really a multiplayer, you get protection from better players for just over 100 hours, then they're free to ruin you experience as much as they like. Which they do, as i found out. After the television advertisement for it, i thought Travian to look like the old PC classic 'Seven Kingdoms', but as it happens, it's the worst thing i could have signed up for. Oh dear. That's how i would summarise this abysmal 'game'. You get your own village though! How exciting, and a quest-giver, who tells you what to do but not how to do it, and you can do ... more

    5 Stars Travian. Your Advenure Awaits 04/06/2012
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Fun and free to play

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Can be very time consuming

    I first discovered Travian about eight years ago after looking for something to do to alleviate my boredom. At that time I had never played an online game or even a browser based game but I was pleasantly surprised at how quickly I got the hang of it. Three years ago the game had a complete overhaul adding new content and a re design of the website winning several awards along the way. A recent TV advertising campaign shows that they are serious about what they do and are always looking to make the gaming experience an enjoyable one. I am totally hooked on this game and think I will be playing ... more

    5 Stars Experiences on Travian.com 08/01/2010
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages You can enjoy a game on internet with something or other new everytime. Good for Creativity.

    Disadvantages Disadvantages You get addicted to the game very much if you overplay it.

    One day I came across a wonderful website name travian.com. It was suggested to me by my brother. He used to play games there earlier and asked me to join as well. I should tell here that it is a very wonderful site which I have found. Unlike other sites for playing games, where we have to play a new game or an old one right from the beginning, the website allows us to continue from the last point where we had left. The concept of the game is to construct our village, which is provided to us in the beginning when we join. We are supposed to manage and increase our resources like crop, iron ... more

    1 Star Online Games may become a mania - don't start 21/10/2009
    User doesn't recommend the product

    Advantages Advantages it is interesting, there are a lot of people

    Disadvantages Disadvantages you loose your time

    Travian is an online game. There are installations in different languages. The idea is that you create your towns, take part in battles and you are a part of a virtual world. At the end after a months you may win the game ... but you lost your time. This is something like a Tamagochi - all the time you must do something in the game so that you go further. Even if you are in vacation you must have Internet so that you take care about your city... The virtual World becomes real I played Travian around four months. From the beginning it was an online game only but after a month Travian was part ... more

    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages addictive

    Disadvantages Disadvantages addictive

    Travian is a webbased game which involves you running a village. You must protect your village at all costs and make it grow to be strong. You start with a small village and begin growing wheat and harvesting iron, clay and wood. As your resources grow you can build more buildings and enhance your fields. Be warned - you need to start building an army as soon as you have roughly 100 population or you wont last long. The big boys group together and will take you out. Fun game though but very frustrating when you feel someone is picking on you! The layout is good and easy to navigate. This game ... more

    4 Stars The Natars are coming 14/12/2008
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Free and really good fun

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Very long construction times and unfair advantages for some players

    So first a brief introduction. Travian is a free online web based browser game, meaning nothing to install, you just sign up and start playing. There are currently 7 different servers running and all in different stages of the game. -----So what's it about?----- Well when you register you are given the oppurtunity to choose between one of three tribes. The gauls, romans and teutons. These all have the pro's and cons: Gauls - Their troops are the best at defence but lacking in offence. Cavalry is insanely fast compared to others and so allows for more strategic play. Gaul's Crannies (used to ... more

    Advantages Advantages Great fun and excellent interaction with other players, no pop-ups or banners.

    Travian is a browser based war style game with thousands of members. It is set in medieval times and allows you to take control of either Romans, Gauls or Teutons, each have their specific stengths and weaknesses. You firstly have to pick which server you are going to play on, either server 1 - 6 or server 3x. Servers 1 to 6 are normal speed servers, and it takes longer to build yourself up. These servers last for over a year and are best suited to those who can only get online for an hour or so a day. Server 3x is the speed server is probably the most popular. It lasts for over 4 months and ... more
