Travians, also known as Travianer in German, gets you started in the action right away as you are immediately faced with a strange situation. You receive a letter from your uncle, who is handsomely wealthy, and changes everything that you know.
Travians is more social than the original game, with a focus on communication rather than war. A chat box is permanently displayed and the use of messaging is encouraged. You can add other players to your "friends list". Players can join clubs and guilds, create blogs, and play a number of mini-games.
