For about a month now, I’ve been playing this online multiplayer game called Lord of  Ultima. And I think I really like it, so I’m going to recommend it for any of you w100126-lords[1]ho like me, 1 – Like games, 2 – Like to play with your friends, 3 – Like civilization style games, 4 – Hardly ever find the time to play anything at all. =)

Lord of Ultima is a strategy / civilization style game that’s fully browser based, and runs quite smoothly on most any browser / system. So it requires no installation of any kind. You sign up for an account, choose a server, and start building cities and armies. You can choose to go to war with other players, or focus on building your empire. You can invite your friends to join in an alliance with you, and you can support each other. And the nicest part of all of this from the point of view of someone like me, is that it “can” take very small amount of time to play. Even though people do get obsessed and spend hours just staring at their monitors as stuff get built [or so I’m told], but that’s not something you have to do. 😉 Personally I play this game for 30 seconds each time, in between working or studying… and just that.

I currently play on Server 6 EU, where me and friends have an alliance called Ariadne. If you’re by any chance tempted to join the game and play with us, you can check out a brief profile of our alliance @ Ariadne.Aasemoon.com. Feel free to drop me a line if you like to join. =)
