I think and i have advanced much quicker then many of people that i have met in game because i have logical, analytical and math skils, altho i gotta say you dont meet many of them or well i could i guess if i start chatting and try to boost my progress with their help by trading FP or city resources, but there game doesnt require you to chat with them. But you can also spend 2 more hours every day analyzing, watching videos and reading forums/articles about different aspects of game and what is best startegy/building in what situations. With 1 city you can probably do everything you need in 30m-1h every day if you choose to. I have played for 4 months, investing about 4 hours every day(1-1.5h in morning, 5-30 min on the bus in middle day and 2-3 hours in evening, there i try to do the best i can). Logical and geometrical puzzle solving, combined with nice graphics. You can progress 10 times quicker then usual players if youre good at those things. If you like analyze and calculate this is like THE game for you. Very good game, very sofisticated, interesting combat system, lots of events, lots of different resources that allow you to progress throu game, by building buildings, research, quests and Guild Expedition advances. One major weakness of the game is that the game offers plenty of small wins, but after a while all those wins become somewhat repetitive. Still, I wouldn't say this is a perfect game. One great aspect of the game is that one can choose to play this game militarist, and other can do it based on goods production, and both can somewhat play all the mini games.

And both functions are integrated in the mini games in such a way that even free players can get enough fun out of these (instead of facing frustration, as it occurs in most other war games).

It's more like a sim city style game with the additional options for wars and trading. Main theme of the game is empire building.

In fact, attacking others gives you little benefits, and you would start avoiding after a while (unless you're too much into hurting others.) Then again, attacking each other is not crucial aspect of the game.

Only people in the neighborhood can attack each other, and they're mostly somewhat of the same strength. In reality in this game it doesn't matter how strong the other people on the server are, because no one can attack no one randomly. The people complaining wouldn't have learned the basic concept of the game and would have quit. This game is unlike most other games out there, because it DOES NOT force you to spend money.
