Hmmm, so its a niche crafting/co-op game. Very interesting, but not as good as SWG or Dragon Empires. However, there is the community it fosters which is probably pretty sophisticated if the players dont get big heads about being famous or "popular" -- ugh, does anyone remember those idiots in high school that were "popular?" LOL. My fear is that this game might be fun if you like crafting and politics, but crafting isnt like-able to everyone (such as me!), although politics is rather interesting. I have to admit that i never craft. Its dull. But overall, i wouldnt play this game if it fell from out of the sky; i like conflict better, so i am hoping the angels drop Star Wars Galaxies or Dragon Empires onto my lap (from the clouds) pretty soon. So i give this game only a 5 rating for those reasons. And compared to the graphics in Dragon Empires, well this game doesnt even come close. |

I played in the beta, it is a very unique and new game - You will wonder why you are havig fun without killing things, but it is true - fun CAN be had without getting kills. |

This game is a refreshing change and if you like to socialise this is the game for you! The people who tend to play games devoid of combat tend to be very nice people.
This game can be competitive though. So dont think you wont have goals to reach. |

Addictive and satisfying, I wish I could vote 9.5 as it's not perfection but its very close. |

Asside from the fact that some people might be turned off by the fact that the game doesn't allow you to kill other players, this is a damn great game. It's what the internet would look like if you made it unatractive to the brain-dead "l33t h@xX0rz" and other such annoyances of the cyber-world. |

A feat of genius. This is a game where you don't even have to care about the goals of the game to get addicted. No other MMOG has ever captured the potential for socieities to self-organize in creative new ways like ATITD.
Not everyone will have the right personality (read: patience) to enjoy this game, but its rewards are immense for the right kind of gamer. People who care passionately about sound or (to a lesser extent) graphics should probably play something different. People who think making things from scratch is dull and/or boring should avoid this game (and stop complaining when they don't like it -- you've been warned, fer pete's sake). |

This game is really awsome. At first you seem completly lost, but hopefully you'll have a good mentor that will show u the ropes. If someone by the name of Spinx is your mentor, then get a new mentor!!! You wont learn anything form him. I'm still learning from a reagular player named Smokeapotamus who is 1 trillion times more helpfull than Spinx. If u play this game and find a guy named Aaragorn, than thats me. As for the grafix, they arnt very great, but hey this games free! go to fileplanet to get this game. The sound isnt even there, so it's a good game to listin to a cd and play at the same time. There are endless things to do in this game, so you'll spend a lot of time on this game. If you dont try this game, than you deserve to die and burn in the endless fire pits of hell. |

For some of us in the game, we are supposed to test the pulse of Egypt in create games in the thought discipline. However, if anyone can best test the pulse of Egypt, it's our developer. Kudos to him for being an open person in terms of crafting the game we play. |

The good news is, this game is the most addictive mmorpg I've played in the past 6 years. The bad news is, this game is the most addictive mmorpg I've played in the past 6 years. |

This is one of the best games i have seen, almost never crashes and a very nice thing is that the developers are on almost everyday and listen to what the players want. Furthermore almost everyone online is nice and one of the nice things is there is no combat in the game. |

Only true MMORPG out there. Everything else is Final Fantasy with more players or a first person shooter deathmatch. If you want a game that you can't play single player, come on over. Go to Atitd.com to download a free demo of 24hours of game play! Once you log in, type "/chat Kir" and tell me what you think. |

All of these comments are right on target - if you *must* kill things in a game, this isn't for you. If you can enjoy competition without slaying, and even at the same time that you are cooperating in many cases, this game has all the others beat, hands down. And the player-driven legal system is absolutely unique, if you don't like how the rules work, make a law to implement your changes and convince the rest of Egypt to vote for it! |

I also played in the beta and got addicted to the game idea from the moment I first heard about it.
This is rather a social experiment than a game, having a really great community and ingame support being able to instantly react to user suggestions. |

If u think that 'no combat = no conflict' in this game, then you are absolutely wrong. Conflict as a Discipline (fun mini, and not-so-mini games _against_ each other), conflict as politics (the above mentioned Demi-pharaoh thing is only one..:P), conflict as research races between regions, etc. As it have a free trial, there's no excuse for not trying out..:P |

The environment in this game is great!
People are very friendly, and it's all about cooperation, though it is possible to succeed as a soloer too.
The developers are also the greatest I've known - they listen to the players, and very often implement what is suggested by the players, from a built-in feature request-, and law-feature.
It's a free download and 24 hours of free play to start with, so try it out! |
