Alien Adoption Agency - A decent strategy game with a lot of options to play with. Because of the different options no 2 characters are the same. ***1/2
ArchMage - This is a very good strategy game where you build a character and a kingdom. It has 9 single account servers ranging from turns every 5 minutes to turns every 20 minutes. Includes guild, solo and non-guild games. ****1/2
Artifact - This game allows free or pay play. You can do a lot without paying, but all the game's options will open if you pat to play. (Too many free games on the net similar to this one) **1/2
AstroNest - The best strategy game I have yet to find. It offers everything except destruction. Set in an annual tournament format it gives bonus points for certain tasks like largest, most defenses and most attacks. With 3 servers with slight variations in each that allow you to play single colonies in each one. A must play game. *****
Dead Earth - This is a combination of strategy and role play. It is more strategy oriented and is very similar to Archmage. This game lasts 1 month and gives 1 turn every 5 minutes.
Dominion - This game is very close to Utopia. If you do not like Utopia you will not like this game. It does seem to have a few changes that I like. **1/2
Earth: 2025 - This game has the highest player interaction of all the strategy games we have found thus far. Three servers and 5 gaming styles to choose from makes this one of the best web based strategy games of all time. ****1/2

Fight Over Fear - This was a very good game before they had a major server crash. The game's owners are working very hard to rebuild the game from scratch. Many of the options are not working yet or are very vague at best. I am watching however for them to finish the rebuild. I will review it again once they have completed it. For now it has become very boring with no direction. *1/2
Imperial Conflict - This one looks like a good game. It currently has all it's servers closed to new players from time to time. To Be Reviewed ?????
Monarchy - This is another of those high quality text strategy games. It is one of the few with a fantasy setting. ***
Planetarion - This is another space game that has some very good options that keeps you from getting bored with it. ***
Promisance - A very good blend of some of the best elements of many of the established strategy games. It is a relatively newcomer to the web based strategy games and has began to build a very good following. ***1/2
Space Merchant - This is one of my favorite space games. Great player interaction. ***1/2
The Octogon Group - This is a web reality game that is in a class by itself. It is a spy adventure/ strategy game done in flash. It is pay to play game with a 1 time fee of $15 USD, but well worth it for the quality of this game. ****1/2
VigilantForces - This is currently accepting applications for beta testers. This game looks to have a lot of promise and I am personally looking forward to the start up. It appears to have good gaming options and great graphics to keep the eyes from getting bored. :)
Too be reviewed later. ?????
