Don't let anybody tell you the ancient world is boring: Gameforge has passed the one million world-wide user mark with its free online game Ikariam after only eight weeks. The city-building strategy game in the tradition of 'The Settlers' got off to a dream start and is eagerly being played in thirteen countries already. Turning a vacant coastal strip into a thriving megacity is fascinating numerous online players.

"The rapid growth in the number of users is our confirmation that the concept of the game is the right one," states Klaas Kersting, Gameforge founder and managing director. "Ikariam offers just the right mix of city-building strategy and business simulation – and as usual, all for free."

The combination of trade, warfare and diplomacy caters to all tastes. The players decide individually whether to place the focus on economy, research or the military. And the number of users verifies Ikariam’s success: it already exceeds that of the population of Cologne.
