There's a neat little free web-based game that I've recently started playing and it's got me hooked. It's not an MMORPG, it's more like CIV and SIM games.
IKARIAM is a nifty little world of ocean, islands, and little tiny people in togas. You start a city on a random island, and grow your population, building, armies, and navies. Expand to other islands, conquer the ocean!
Really the only thing I don't like about the game is how slowly I'm mining marble (work harder, my minions! work harder!) and that none of the "wise people" in the game are female. C'mon! Give me a gal in charge of something. I know, I know, you want big strong MEN in charge of your army. OK, well, then at least throw me the bone of having the person who tells me about my CITIES be a woman. Or the diplomat. Or the researcher.
which world are you playing in?

I'm on Eta - and I am, of course, "Camelama" in game. :)
Showed it to another friend last night and she said it was the most boring thing she'd ever tried. :) So it's obviously not for everyone.
