In this blog, when you find a nice and fun online game, I do not hesitate to report it: the internet should also be used for entertainment and offers video games for all tastes and all types. A category of online games that has been popular for several years is browser games.
Although, literally, most online games run through a browser, the browser game, properly speaking, is a type of game (often role-playing or strategy, but these are not the only genres available) based on multiplayer interaction, about sociability, time and building a character, a city, an empire, a team etc ... in the long term.
So you will not have someone or something to control in first person (however browser games are also being born with this feature, as we will see later), or graphics to scream: often the game interface is similar to that of a board game, at most with some short pre-set animations (also in this case, however, several titles are emerging with the possibility of playing on 3d scenarios updated in real time).

Most browser games are managerial / managerial in which the goal is to set up an empire of its own, a bit like in the old Sim Cities, with the addition of a form of competition between users, which can be Civilization-style war. They are based on time because, for example if you have to evolve or build or move troops, there is a timer that marks the time for the conclusion of the operation. If you log back into the game, for example, the next day, that operation will be finished and you can go on. A game of this type of game is therefore destined to last a long time, as if it were a hobby to take care of, but be careful that it does not become a second job.
The best browser games, the most popular and played, all free and free (even if, for some, by paying, you have special discounts and bonuses) are:
1) Travian is a very famous medieval war game, present online for some time. Players must build villages, enlarge them, form an army, defend themselves from attacks and eliminate enemies. The game map is very large, it can be inserted in new games continuously because they open several servers (which are the playing fields) every month but a game played seriously is very demanding and lasts even a year. In the end the alliance wins and, if you start the game as a single and solitary entity, the group component, in the continuation of the game, takes over. Travian was one of the first browser games to be developed, as well as one of the most popular. Despite the age, thanks to the innovations introduced in version 4, it still manages to attract tens of thousands of players.
Similar to Travian we have several browser games that arrived later, more graphically cured but on whose judgment I do not express myself:
- Gladiatus set in ancient Rome.
- Ikariam is played against the backdrop of an ancient world, with a village on an island, the construction of buildings and the war against enemies. Interaction with other players is mandatory if you want to win, both to exchange resources and to sign military pacts and move espionage.
- Tribals is a village game very similar to Travian, where you can build and expand an empire, team up with other players and defend yourself from enemies.
2) GoodGame Empire is a game that won the best browser game award in 2012, which works a bit like Travian, but with much more accurate graphics. Resources such as wood, stone and food must be collected to build the fortress and army that must be used to conquer others and defend against attacks.
3) OGame is set in space, ships must be developed, planets conquered and more and more advanced technologies developed. The gameplay is very similar to that of travian but the pace, perhaps, is less frenetic. However, to break the monotony, developers occasionally open servers with special features, such as twice or even four times the normal speed.

4) The best online football manager games like Football Manager include various famous names including Hattrick, Soccer Manager, Trophy Manager, Goal United, Whisper and many others.
5) Other sports games are then MyBasketTeam, online basketball manager where you are the manager and coach of a team, Maxithlon where you manage a track and field company and Tennis Manager where you are the coach of a tennis player to make him climb ATP rankings.
On another page there are the managerial Formula One browser games where you are driving a team against other online players.
6) The Renaissance Kingdoms, you can be a craftsman, a duke or a general, and you live a parallel life set in the world of the 1400s. Beautiful graphics and a very large online community of 150, 000 players.
7) AI War is nice because it is addictive, with a war against robots and artificial intelligentsia.
8) Bitefight is a vampire game, where you are impersonating either a vampire or a werewolf. you have to develop your character, make him fight against other players, make him grow and work. Honestly, a little boring because there is little strategy and it looks more like a tamagochi.
Similar to Bitefight there is also Metaldamage in which an automobile must be developed.
9) Town of Salem is a role-playing game where you have to be a liar and mislead other players. Depending on the choice, you can play as a citizen (good), as a mafia (bad) or neutral. If you are a citizen, you must track down the members of the mafia and stop them before they kill everyone in your city.
10) In the article on the 10 games on the internet to be played immediately, other great games such as The Settlers Online are reported for free via the browser .
11) Pokemon Showdown is the game for Pokemon trainers, challenging other players online without wasting time in Pokemon training and care.
Pokemon Showdown allows you to fight using a random Pokemon team or a custom team if you want to choose which Pokemon to use.
The game takes place by selecting the moves and contrasting the other coach strategically.
12) Adventure Quest Worlds is an online game with more cartoon-style graphics, with a horizontal scrolling view, where you play with battles between warriors and wizards.
13) Seafight is a more reasoned game than the others, and quite different from what is the thread of the various strategic and managerial analyzed so far. Here we will have the opportunity to control our ship firsthand, and all actions will take place in real time, so overall it is a less frantic title in time management ... while we will be offline, we will not risk seeing everyone our possessions disappear at the hands of other players!
The virtual world is that of pirates, you have to build islands, build warships and attack enemies around the sea.
Objective: make more money to become more powerful and become the king of the seas.
If you like the pirate setting, you should also try PirateStorm, the latest addition to BigPoint (the same manufacturer as SeaFight), with similar game dynamics but much improved graphics.
14) Epic War Saga is a game where you can organize and create the army to make it fight against opponents.
The game is a lot of fun especially in the battle phase, very animated graphically, with a horizontal view of the army.
15) Drakensang, an excellent title of the same genre HellBreed by now, (hack'n'slash similar to Diablo 3 ) which is enjoying huge success.
Although it requires the download of an additional plugin, the "effort" of the download is well rewarded by the really unusual graphics for a browser game (in a positive sense). There are hundreds of quests to complete, as well as the ability to complete them together with friends.
16) Conquer Club and other Risiko-like games listed on another page.
17) Grepolis set in ancient Greece, follows the gameplay of traditional titles such as Ogame and Travian.
Nice the possibility of raising temples for the Gods, and thus obtaining their favors (who has never dreamed of asking Zeus to electrocute the city of his own enemy "> Erepublik among the most recommended, focuses heavily on the social aspect of the game ... is a simulator of economic \ military \ political life set in the present day, and will allow you to play on a map based on the real world.
There will be wars, elections, companies ... in short, everything we see in the real world.
19) The West, a pure rpg set in the ancient west ... you will have a character and quests to solve to increase your statistics, just like in the more traditional role-playing games.
20) Supremacy 1914 is a great browser game where you have to guide a European nation during the crisis that precedes the First World War, trying with diplomacy and military power to come out on top.
21) Neptune's Pride is a real-time strategy game set in space, where up to eight players begin to expand their star systems until they meet someone else, with whom they fight. Since fleets take hours and sometimes days to move from one star to another, this leaves you a lot of time to play the game of diplomacy, trying to cement alliances and crumble the bases of those of your enemies. Try to do it yourself, when you know that one of the parties is out, and it just begins to gently wear down their trust, until they are a human-shaped receptacle of suspicion, and before you know it, you have a galactic civil war. your hands and you can dry the pieces.
22) Finally, a browser game that I have not played but that seems different from the others because it is a mix between a competition game like those described above and a Second Life-style virtual world.
Popmundo is an online role-playing game where the theoretical goal is to become a music star but that can be played in completely different ways, not caring about winning but doing something else, such as the criminal, the manager, the impresario or simply being to watch and be curious on duty.
Popmundo is characterized by a very pleasant comic graphics and is really varied as a possibility of development, without predefined schemes.
