Strategy games
Eressea
Eressea is a turn-based strategy game in a fantasy setting. It is an open-ended game, adding new players to the fringes of the world all the time. The game is free of charge, has around 1700 players and is growing rapidly even after more than six years.
Eressea is a fantasy world. Elves, dwarves, orcs and other races live among its shores, dragons and sea serpents terrorize its population, and powerful magic is part of everyday life.
Eressea is a gigantic world. Thousands of little kingdoms and clans, mighty empires and trade unions are spread over numerous continents and islands. Most of them you may never meet in your life. But you will hear many legends of both victory and defeat, joy and tragedy from far-off places.
Eressea is a complex world. To be successful, there is much you must do and understand. You will forge alliances, establish trade routes, and build mighty fortresses. Sometimes your neighbors may just not like you and declare war. But if all goes well, your people can develop and expand for ages to come. At the beginning, playing Eressea takes well under an hour a week. But after several months or even years of playing, the leaders of large factions often need 10 hours for a turn, sometimes more.
There is no defined goal, no final victory in Eressea. Your goals in life are entirely up to you, whether you want to explore the world, build a trading fleet, conquer and expand, or simply socialise with other players.
