 Travian Concept Art

Okay, so I found a game, and it’s not the best game ever, but it’s pretty good for a browser game. It’s one of those simple ones, but with room to grow.

Kind of like the early Civilization and Civilization 2 games.

It’s called Travian.

I wish I had an open source model of something similar to build off of, I do love things like this.

Only thing that really grinds my gears is that they offered paid bonus features…but I guess it’s a price to pay if you don’t have ads to support yourself.

Anyhow, any of you want to visit me I’m on:

Server 1

and my Capital city is called:

Barkley Shut Up and Jam: Gaiden

January 23rd, 2008

Wow, okay this is just an incredible concept for a free game. It’s a bit incredible that someone made it but, you be the judge.

If this isn’t Charles Barkley I don’t know what is: (Click to Enlarge)

Charles Barkley Shut Up and Jam: Gaiden

Here’s the Premise:

The Great B-Ball Purge of 2041, a day so painful to some that it is referred to only as the “B-Ballnacht”. Thousands upon thousands of the world’s greatest ballers were massacred in a swath of violence and sports bigotry as the game was outlawed worldwide. The reason: the Chaos Dunk, a jam so powerful its mere existence threatens the balance of chaos and order. Among the few ballers and fans that survived the basketball genocide was Charles Barkley, the man capable of performing the “Verboten Jam”…

Flash forward 12 years to the post-cyberpocalyptic ruins of Neo New York, 2053. A Chaos Dunk rocks the island of Manhattan, killing 15 million. When the finger is put on the aging Charles Barkley, he must evade the capture of the B-Ball Removal Department, led by former friend and baller Michael Jordan, and disappear into the dangerous underground of the post-cyberpocalypse to clear his name and find out the mysterious truth behind the Chaos Dunk. Joined by allies along the way, including his son Hoopz, Barkley must face the dangers of a life he thought he gave up a long time ago and discover the secrets behind the terrorist organization B.L.O.O.D.M.O.S.E.S.
