Five years ago, if you'd asked me what my favourite gaming series of all time was, I probably would have considered Team 17's Worms saga. Featuring teams of charismatic wrigglers who love nothing better than to blow each other up with grenades and giant, concrete donkeys, it was arguably the most fun you could have with a turn-based multiplayer game.
On track to launch next month, Playtinum's Plan N Plant looks like it belongs on Facebook alongside city sims like Social City or Hello City, but it's actually a downloadable game with a full career mode that boasts plenty of goals and tasks.
City of Wonder is a simulation game developed by Playdom and played on Facebook where you can create prosperous civilizations which will let you progress through the ages while researching various technologies. You can interact with your Neighbors where you can explore their civilizations and either attack them or become strong allies that you can trade goods or cultural knowledge with to earn money and experience. The money you earn from your civilization can be reinvested to build your amazing City of Wonder. Gamezebo's City of Wonder strategy guide and walkthrough will provide you with a quick start guide, tips and tricks, hints and cheats on how to win.
I like to think I am doing my part to save this little blue marble we call Earth, but Terranova has me beat. My recyclables find their way to my curb every week, I shut the lights off when I leave the room and I only wash my underwear twice a week. Alright, I made that last one up.
After rebuilding the kingdom in the first game, Knight Arthur is back for another adventure in My Kingdom for the Princess 2 by Nevosoft. The innovative mixture of click management and building simulation still works perfectly, and some new twists along with engaging mini-games ensure a pleasant experience.
Fighting monsters is a tough job. Sometimes all it takes is a hero. Sometimes it takes six. Knights of the Phantom Castle is a unique strategy title that puts players in control of an army of knights, bouncing back and forth between controlling each and every one of their actions in real time.
Galamon is an extremely simple game that melds playful battle with breeding and training fighters called Galamon. Currently, the game is very limited in scope and game play, but I have high hopes for upgrades down the road.
True to its name, Space Empires: Battle for Supremacy has some lofty ambitions. A spirited Facebook port of a 17-year-old cult PC franchise seasoned with a dash of Farmville, a hint of StarCraft, and a thick topping of Imperion, Space Empires was developed by Nvinium Games in the hopes of bridging "the gap between the traditional gamer and the social gamer." According to some, galactic dominance may be an easier goal, but Nvinium has made an impressive effort here that shouldn't be missed.
