Enfotainer - Enfotain your mind!

Welcome back!

I was recently browsing the net for some cool topics to post in my blog and there I landed on this online browser-based game site named Travian, registered, and in a minute started playing and whoa…I’m playing and playing and am still playing! I love strategy games, and this game is so far an ultimately challenging strategic game I’ve ever played, where you compete with thousands of players from all around the world!

This browser based game is a world full of thousands of users who all begin as a leader of a small village with a single building, where some ends up being a huge dominating city and some ends up completely destroyed in the wage of war - all with your own strategic decision-making!

Travian has been awarded “The Browser Game Of The Year.” Definitely Travian offers a variety of experiences and strategic decision-making on various variables such as harvesting different resources, specializing in a trade for best price at the marketplace, extending and expanding, defending your own village against attacks, diplomatic relationship with thousands of other players, etc. which can either ultimately turn you to be a dominating city or get destroyed in the middle of a war.

In Travian there are three tribes: Romans, Gauls, and Teutons and four types of resources: Wood, Clay, Iron, and Wheat and your success in this game to turn your chosen city of your tribe in a big city hugely depends on how efficiently you’ve been able to collect the resources, upgrade your village, develop troops, and develop alliance to support your development and growth.

I’m really loving this strategy simulation game. This game is so addicted. The most interesting thing about this game that I found is when we communicate with other players. Those who are bigger always try to create dominance and what I liked the most of this game is interaction with them. How strategically I can defer such dominance, ally with them, and use their own armies against another enemies is simply a wonderful strategy for me right now.

If you love playing strategy games, you’ll really love this game. There are a lot of servers supporting thousands of players online and you do not need to download anything to play this wonderful free online game. So what are you waiting for, just jump on to be a travian and discover a whole new world online!

Looking for a best place for multiplatform game reviews, trailers, screenshots, news about upcoming game releases, etc.? I had actually been searching for the same where I could take a peek at some of the latest gaming info and reviews and found just a perfect site - GamesRadar.com.

GamesRadar not only features game reviews, trailers, videos, screenshots, and latest news on video games but also provides cheats, hints, walkthroughs, and even gamers forum for sharing strategies! I really found this site quite amazing as I was searching for some GTA IV CHEAT. The sections were bookmark worthy, with complete walkthroughs, unlockable infos, cheats and hints, and so much more!

Yes. I also could not believe it when I first heard it. I thought this was some kind of a joke or some kind of virus or spyware! But I was really amazed…this was a great 3D game known as .kkreiger, and believe it or not, the size of the game was just 96 KB! Here are some snapshots of the beta release!

 The minimum requirements of this 96 KB, 3D game are:

• A 1.5GHz Pentium III / athlon or faster.
• 512MB of RAM
• a GeForce4Ti (or higher) or ATI Radeon8500 (or higher) graphics card supporting pixel shaders 1.3, preferably with 128MB or more of VRAM.
• Sound hardware
• DirectX 9.0b

I hope this cutting edge technology will certainly bring some real big changes in the gaming world! There are some bugs in this game, but hey, this is just the beta version! You can download this game from here. I could have just uploaded the zipped file so that you could immediately download this wonderful game from this post, but I believe we should give credits to the developer (theprodukkt) by at least visiting their wonderful site! Simply extract the Zip file. There will be a small 96 KB executable file. Run it. I know it takes some time for the game to load, but you’ll then be one of the people who’ve seen this miracle of technology!

I know .kkreiger is old, that is, last updated in August 2006. But I blogged this just to create more awareness among the people regarding this concept in which all the textures are procedurally generated in your computer! and if successfully implemented, I believe, this concept can bring some real big changes in the whole gaming technology. What do you say?

Well, regarding the ongoing development, you might have also heard about Debris by Farbrausch.

This was release by “.farbrausch” on April 2007, bringing you an animated city with lots of effects, and again, this 7:18 minutes of demo is just 180 kb!…that’s even smaller than an average jpg photo!

If you don’t have the minimum requirements to run this demo, you can check the demo video from Youtube as well.

The most interesting thing is, now you can also use this same procedural texture technology for FREE! . Werkkzeug3 TE is the first tool to bring this procedural texture from the coders to the designers. Download your free copy of .Werkkzeug3 TE today and give it a try!
