Tribal Wars is an Unique game, to the facts that to gamers it has two effects:

1. Extremely addicting 

2. Extremely boring 

The game is a slow RTS village/empire builder were you build up a village and grow it to take over others all running at real time again thousands of other players. You can also band together as tribes and wage war against others. 

The game runs in Real time and it takes forever to do things, like building or upgrading could take 10-20 hours to do, each soldier could take 5-20 minutes each and only one at a time. And the game is basically a text game as attacking brings up a result screen but tactics are everywhere and isn't easy. 

But the game is Extremely addiciting to so many, your lives can change if you are hooked on to it, for me i was waking up at 3 am to send a attack, on every morning before school setting up attacks and building log, and it was doing bad for my education (at the time it was year 10 didn't really matter) but i quitted playing if before the much more important years 11-12. But i managed to control my addiction of the game but there must be so many addicted to this game.

But or so many its utter boring, the extreme slow pase is unbearable, but for those addicted you could sit for hours staring at a counter go down. Its a Utter waste of time.

So do any of you have experiences with Tribal wars. And if you like what you see i pose this a warning, you may be addicted and your family might not see you again, like WOW. 

its the most addicting game i ever played. i stayed two god damn years playing it, i didnt do anything else, no football, no video games, nothing.

its not boring because of the community, also the principal of the game isnt bad. but the time factor is huge, and you have to rely on others to have a good time.

wow 2 years thats hard, have you stopped. the fact that you can be destroyed at any time forces you to an computer and when out you are afraid that you will be destroyed.
