Nothing quite like it

This game runs in real time over the course of a week or so. You can check in a couple time a day, or you can obsess over the multitude of possibilities. It moves very slowly, so you absolutely can ignore it while it runs in the background, but it also rewards long study, if you are interested in playing against more skilled players. It’s a social game, so this means that your games are only as good as your opponents. Sometimes this is brilliant, and sometimes it’s a letdown. Bring thick skin, because eventually someone will betray your trust- it’s part of the game, and not something you should take personally.

New Updates!

Me and my friends loved this game and were really sad to see it fall into disrepair over the past few years. However it now seems like the new owner is pumping out update after update. Amazing work!

Resist slop, embrace subs

This is just a really solid strategy game and doesn’t feed into a dopamine hole just to push ads on you. Enjoy and embrace this game and its community.
