Have you ever heard of Travian? No? That’s what I thought. Have you heard of Second Life? Probably.
Travian is a browser based free strategy game, a phenomenon that almost nobody has heard of.
But look the graph below. That is what we call true virality: almost zero news about Travian anywhere, but it’s growing steadily and it’s big. People join Travian because they heard about it from other people, who are so enthusiastic about it to recommend it to a friend.

I haven’t played Travian for a while, thus I don’t know if it still makes sense to join the game. It is too time-consuming and long running game for my taste, something that we are trying to do better with our mobile social strategy games in Huikea
