Travian is an award-winning German massively multiplayer online browser-based strategy game developed by Travian Games GmbH.
The game’s developers drew roughly from Classical antiquity and particularly from the Roman Empire to create a predominantly militaristic real-time strategy. Along with three English versions, and the original German version, the game has been translated into over 40 other languages, and has over 3 million players and over 250 servers worldwide. In 2006, it won the Superbrowsergame Award, in the large games category.
Every player enters Travian as a leader of a small village as a Roman, Gaul or Teuton with two people—a population of two—in their village. The village has only one building in its village centre, known as the Main Building, around which are spaces for further buildings to be constructed. There are some prerequisites for constructing most buildings.
Outside the village centre there are 18 resource fields that are level 0. Every player’s first village has the same distribution of resource fields, but additional villages may have a different distribution of fields. Each resource field is either a Woodcutter (produces Wood/Lumber), Clay Pit (produces Clay), Iron Mine (produces Iron) or Wheat Field/Cropland (produces Wheat/Crop). These fields produce a certain amount of resources per hour, depending on their levels. At level 0, each resource field produces two units per hour. There are also oases which can increase the production rate of resources, and can be occupied using a Hero when the Hero’s mansion has reached a sufficient level. Resources are required to construct buildings, to sustain the population and to train and feed troops. A player can increase the production rate by upgrading the fields.
At the start of the game, the selection of buildings a player can construct is very limited. As the village is developed, a wider range of buildings become available for construction.
A greater aspect for the game is its troops. Troops are produced in the Barracks, Great Barracks, Stable, Great Stable and Workshop. They allow a player to raid other villages and steal their resources, which will benefit the attacker. When the Barracks have been upgraded to level three, the player may build an Academy, which allows them to research new types of troops; the player may also construct new types of buildings (such as the Armoury and Blacksmith once the Academy has been upgraded to a sufficient level. A Stable allows cavalry to be trained. These units are faster and more expensive than infantry. The Workshop allows siege engines—rams which destroy walls and catapults which destroy buildings—to be manufactured. These units are slower and more expensive than infantry and cavalry. Administrators, known more commonly as chiefs, are units which persuade enemy villages to join the attacker’s realm. Units which gain experience in battle, known as Heroes, can be trained from an existing unit in the Hero’s mansion.
The ultimate goal of Travian is to construct and upgrade a Wonder of the World to level 100. The World Wonder requires millions of resources and takes a large amount of time to complete. Once a World Wonder is upgraded to level 100, the game ends and the winner and their alliance is announced. A player needs a construction plan in order to be able to construct a World Wonder; these plans are obtained from Natarian villages.
An appropriate ranking system has been created that determines the players’ rank from raiding, attacking, defending and building. Players can earn medals for their profile page by taking a top 10 place in the ranks. If a player gets themselves into the top 10 ranks, and earns a medal, it will contain information about the category, the position they came and of what week in since the start of the server they earned it.

This game absolutely sucks! I mean, unless you”re one of those few that are all powerful and just destroy people”s villages for no reason, then I guess it”s good for you. But I have had multiple accounts, always starting fresh, but just when I actually start to make some progress, Some jerk always destroys everything. I try negotiating with them, but in the end, they”ll just destroy you. So pretty much all the time(and money, if you spent any on gold)you spend on this game goes to waste.
I used to like this game, but after all these destruction, I”ve realized that this game is just a huge waist of people”s time. So for those who are big and powerful, good for you, but to people who either don”t have the time, or can”t afford gold to help you out, DON”T PLAY THIS GAME. It”s horrible.

ikariam is better but i play travian.

Travian sucks.
Everyone playing is cheating.
Even the Multihunter rule-keepers cheat.
The Multiplayers will help their old friends
and ban you for no reason.
Then the game will totally ignore your questions of why you were banned.
Do not play this game.

Travian is awesome! Tribal gets boring after you get big, but in travian, you’re all the same. Big or small, you’re still prone to be destroyed.
Addicting, fun, and fun.

As Travian may be a fun and short game for your average lunchbreak, it quickly becomes a full time job. As soon as you own more than one village, the time spent in this game grows enormously.
Anyway, it’s a fun game, that’s right

personally prefer tribal wars. In fact, travian looks like a more cartoony version of tribal wars.
2009/03/27 at 06:05:53
Yeah, a really good way to waste time, really. Still, could be a lot better and I hope an even better web-based ‘God game’ comes out one of these days.
2009/03/27 at 04:58:47
I am boycotting this game because the adverts say “War is comming!”. If you cannot spell a word that simple, my confidence in your game is not going to be high.
2009/03/27 at 04:50:39
im already attached to Ikariam, sorry.
2009/03/26 at 14:00:13
i love travian i think its the best and i play it every day, its good because you dont have to spend hours on it but i spend around 30 minutes a day.
2009/03/25 at 23:53:43
i will have a try ^^
2009/03/25 at 23:41:05
I’m new to this game, now I really enjoy it. Everthing than happens in this game mirror what actually happened to some people in history. Of course you may fall victim of a psychopath king that wipe you off (like the one that attacked a village who later sent huge amounts of resources, just because they asked politely).
Once i attacked a neighbour for resources, killed his army. I got plenty of resources, but to keep him from getting back at me, needed to keep on attacking incessantly, so I decided to offer him joining to my alliance to stop the “bloodshed”. It worked fine.

i didn´t know the game before i started playing.
but when i started playing i liked it more then an ommrpg.
and that is very unusual if you have played world of warcraft and lineage2. you will have to play it when you play it.
i am staying from school for it and even in school im playing in the libary… this is the best browser game ever. a lot better then mobstar and all the other stuff.
