Subagames publishes Caesary; Make Money for Heroic Era (Blue Power)

Posted by – April 27, 2011

Subgames, one of online game and MMO Game publishers, announced the license agreement with Heroic Era to publish browser Game Caesary, according to Subagames.

Caesary has been published by Aeria Games, NGames, Yoogames, R2Games, Kongregate, Lekool, Caesary Online, MochiGames, 337.com.

However, Aeria Games, Kongregate and Caesary Online broke up with China-based Heroic Era due to copyright infringement involved between Evony and Caesary.

According to the analysis, Aeria Games and Kongregate were earning too much than Heroic Era from organic and natural search engine results. That is why the dev team sought a reason labelled as copyright infringement to threaten game publishers, forcing them to terminate the agreement. Ultimately both of parties cannot make money.

More specially, Caesary is a great game, but it is ruined by mean guys.

Top Browser Games in Germany

Posted by – April 26, 2011

The trend -Video games playable via the Internet – has seen a remarkable growth in Germany. Such games are called Browsergames where players do not need to download game client and install it on their PC, but a simple registration redirects players into the fantasy gaming world.

From our research and follow-ups in German online gaming development, we found most of the players stick to such new sub-genre of Video game. Since the inception of OGame, and Travian, more and more browser games hit the German market and even Chinese webgame (equivalent of browsergame) targets German market.

Today, we just list some popular German browser-based games in the genre of RTS, RPG, and simulation.

1, Die Siedler Online (The Settlers Online)

Most of German browser games have been translated into multiple languages in a bid to attract millions of worldwide players. But Ubisoft’s Die Siedler Online remain available for German Version, which appears biased for players from the rest of the world.

Rumors said this browser Strategy game will come into International Market this year. Perhaps this will pose a great threat to EA’s Lord of Ultima.

2, Goal United

Online Manger game such as Soccer Manager, Hattrick, and 11×11 marks a past Era, thereby comes a new trend – Goal United. This is a simulation browser game that is very popular in Germany. Published by Travian Games GmbH, Goal United enjoys a much acclaimed reputation. Start your football Manager career Now!

3, Grepolis

Look at its Online concurrent number of players, you will know how much popular Grepolis is! The official open beta started in December, 2009, as times go by, Innogames keeps to update it with New version Grepolis 2.0 live in 2011. Around two million players are playing Grepolis!

4, War 2 Glory

If something is masked with fantasy, or European elements, the object in question may show something different, or even worse, the truth will be distorted. But Chinese guys, obviously, knows how to adopt them into the market.

War2 Glory is an example that attempts to lure European players with World war 2 setting, but it is a free browser game.

In fact, War 2 Glory had been released in China years ago under the name 二战风云,followed by its international localization, WW2 Warfare, and Dawn of Nations .

5, Travian

Needless to say, Travian remains robust thanks to its innovative gameplay as the vanguard browser game.  With its freshest interface and ever updated expansion, Travian qualifies the best browser game of all time.

6, Kapi Hospital

What US players frequently visited website is nothing but Facebook, while what is hot on Facebook? I should say Farmville, Cityville, and Simply Hospital. However, in Germany, browser simulation game that simulates hospital is Kapi Hospital, the most popular game that scores many awards since its release.

If it comes under an international title, it would be more lucrative for the dev team.

7, Farmerama

Farmerama is a free online farming simulation game where players can grow and harvest crops and raise animals, which is similar to Cityville and Frontierville.

In Germany, Farmerama is just a substitute of Farmville.

8, A mystical Land

A Mystical Land is a 3D browser-based online game that is available at browser, facebook and mobile devices. A mystical Land combines traditional MMORPG, Minigame and quest-solving elements.

9, Urban Rivals

10, Battlestar Galactica Online

11, Shakes and Fidget

12, Seven lands

13, Terra Militaris

14, Drakensang Online

NBA Digital and Playdom Launch Facebook Game NBA Dynasty

Posted by – April 22, 2011

The prominent social gaming out fit Playdom and NBA digital have just stuck a partnership to create “NBA Dynasty”, a new sports management simulation game in which users will build teams using your favorite players from any NBA team in any era. It is the league’s second Facebook game following the February launch of “NBA Legend”. NBA Dynasty is an impressive basketball game which keeps gamers immersed into their roles: owner, general manager as well as the coach of an NBA team.

Of course as a boss, it’s your job to make sure your team gets wide media exposure, plays in front of an enthusiastic crowd and always has the home court advantage. And, well, most importantly, you need to make use of your earned coins from victories and Crowns, the game’s premium currency, to purchase everything from new athletes, Boosts, courts, Sports Drinks, and First Aid kits. Just like NBA Legend, Boosts are used to power up the ability of your team. You can have 1 Boost active per match per category in Team and Player Boosts respectively. New courts which accommodate a larger capacity for your audience will bring in more coins per win. Lastly, it’s your duty to keep tracks of your incremental achievements, which will reward you with extra coins and XP when completed. They are all presented in an easily understandable interface which explains exactly what is needed to be done to bring your team to the next milestone.

Strategy is the core of a game. As a GM, you manage player lineups, and equip your athletes with boosts to enhance their performances. If you would like to keep tracks of all the nitty-gritty details of every player’s performance, the option is there as well.

As the coach, you will call every play during the pivotal fourth period in a basketball match. In practice, you are only allowed to coach the final quarter, with the others are automatically simulated. This means sometimes you need to turn the tide on a somewhat disappointing situation. Your starting lineup will appear as small icons on the court and compete against the opposition in randomized ways based on each player’s statistics. Besides, the Go-To Guy feature is the most important aspect of your coaching, you get to pick which character you want to act as the Go-To Guy, who will take more shots and get the ball more often. If a player is “on fire”, which means he performs several great plays in a row, it would be a good idea to prioritize him. On contrary, you would better substitute players who are on a “cold” streak.. So timeouts are crucial especially when your athletes’ stamina decrease dramatically and thus their performance. But the downside here is that the coaching is too limited. Why ain’t gamers allowed to set offensive/defensive intensity, preferred offensive types like shoot threes, fast break, etc., or defensive mach-ups ?

As you reach level 5, you are given the option to skip matches entirely, but I doubt you want to do that. The amount of control you have over the outcome of games is far too appealing to pass up.

NBA Dynasty is in beta on Facebook and still needs some tweaks here and there. The core concept of it is great, as everyone love building a dream team with legendary players throughout NBA history. Playdom has just infused engaging and extensive gameplay into a burgeoning sub-genre that has been plagued by boredom.

The zodiac: the ultimate power behind MMORPG Lucent Heart

Posted by – April 21, 2011

The award winning zodiac inspired mmo next sneak peek beta announced for thursday 28th april – monday 2nd may.


Imagine a place where the stars mean more to you than simple lights in the sky. Imagine a time where each day your horoscope actually comes true, every single time. Imagine your ‘luck’ is determined by others.

Lucent Heart, the Zodiac inspired Massively Multiplayer Online Game from leading publisher Gamania, is built around the power of the Zodiac, its star signs and their unique qualities. This power is far reaching and affects every soul within the realm of Acadia, the world of Lucent Heart.

Characters begin to develop powerful abilities as they progress through the game, but sometimes a Hero needs more than just their own skills to prevail. Players can call upon the ‘Astrolabe’, an ancient and powerful force comprised of the 12 Zodiac signs, to enhance their skills and abilities.

When players enter the game for the first time, they create their own unique avatars, but they also input their birth dates to determine their assigned star sign. It is under their star sign where their own adventure begins.

Each time the player logs into the game, a ‘daily horoscope’ appears to inform the player of their ‘luck’ for that day. This ‘Zodiac System’ is carried throughout the game and affects the players abilities in love, combat skills and strength, fortune and crafting.

As the player progresses and reaches certain achievements, the ‘Astrolabe’ is awakened and awards the player with special skills, but that’s not all. Once a player reaches Level 30, the full power of the Zodiac and Astrolabe comes into force. Once a player’s ‘star meter’ is fully charged, they can transform into their zodiac form with special armour for an extra boost to help defeat even the most formiddable enemies!

Niall Callaghan, Product Manager of Gamania UK said; “The Zodiac system is unique to Lucent Heart and no other online MMO game provides such a challenge. The key ingredient to us is the Daily Horoscope and how it affects the players progression and enjoyment, with some days being relatively easy, whilst other days, coupled with the changing effect of the Zodiac on your abilities, become more challenging. We’ve seen from our Closed Beta sessions that players enjoy the changes to the characters abilities from day to day as it enables them to think differently about how they approach certain challenges, and once they overcome them they get a greater sense of accomplishment. Your adventure in Lucent Heart really is written in the stars!”

To see how the Zodiac system works and effects players, you can watch the new ‘Zodiac Power’ trailer at the official Lucent Heart Youtube Channel: http://www.youtube.com/LucentHeartUK. To stay updated on all the latest news, how to obtain a beta key, and follow the game for its launch this summer and for the next Sneak Peek Beta on Thursday 28th April to Monday 2nd May, join the Lucent Heart Facebook page www.facebook.com/lucentheartuk and follow the official Twitter feed http://www.twitter.com/LucentHeartUK.

NB: Players who have already registered at Beanfun (http://enbeanfun.com) or will register before Wednesday, the 27th of April at midnight, will receive a special gift that can be used in-game.
