It's a browser game, no software to download. So you can play the game anywhere. I play it at home or at work. Since it does not need lots of time to check on your town and attend to your people's need. Five minutes is good enough. I usually check it twice or thrice a day. Except for low level towns and buildings in where upgrading time is not that long it only takes some minutes to finish. That's where you always have to check on it. At later levels, upgrading takes about several hours and days, and you can only train units and build one thing at a time. It’s perfect for quick bursts of play. A filler to my day.The planning on ahead on what building to upgrade, what field to research.. searching for targets.. is what made the game so addicting for me. And as I see it, there's no end for this game.. you keep on growing and growing. There's no game reset. So it's for keeping.
The only problem is, when I'm at home I always check on my account even when I literally know there's nothing to do in the game anymore.. I keep wanting to play it like the usual games I usually play (MMOs) -- there's so much to be done in-game like leveling, hunting, dueling and stuffs. But I like it that way, it makes me more crave for it.
Check out Ikariam, you might be surprised at how addicting and relatively complex it is. I'm Jenelyn currently playing in Alpha server living in a town named - Whiskey Peak. I'll be waiting for you to contact me, just don't attack me! :P
