Brain Storm (Armor Games)

[Maven]

New Travian style game where you have thirty days to explore, amass resources, fight other players, and complete the Oracle Project. The central gimmick is that it also operates as a trivia game to boost production and 'master knowledge'. It also limits Alliance sizes to ten players.

I thought it was worth a spin.

The more I play, the more I get into it. The trivia challenges are interesting -- I'm genuinely satisfied with the difficulty level. In order to successfully attack other players, you have to answer their trivia questions correctly rather than have a battle determined by numerical outcomes.

Sure, there is an advantage to long-term players knowing the answers already and colluding, but given the nature of the game, its far more inviting than other games of this genre.

A new game, Da Vinci 2, started up for anyone that wants to give it a spin.
