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.

As you cross the expanses in the world of Travians, you will end up in a small, ancient village. You are now entwined in a strange and mysterious family story. You have received an inheritance from your uncle; however, a curse has also come with it as well. Now you must explore the world and, with the help of strangers, lift the ancient curse on your family. Everything is not always as it seems and Travians is full of surprises and adventures. You must take on the challenges of everyday life and be responsible for your character
