My Empire (ME)

Playfish launches new Facebook social game, My Empire. My Empire is a tycoon style empire-building game that takes on Roman, Egyptian and sure to be other Ancient Empire themes.


I have played this game for few days. As a starter, this game is really fun but when time goes... Anyway, it is a new game that was just released so there will be a lot of issues and I think the company is expecting to hear all of these complaints.

1. First of all, I am not very happy that I have to add my friends who play this game MANUALLY. I do not even know who is playing this game and I have to add them blindly. Moreover, there is a limit that you can only send 20 invitations daily.

2. After selected friends have accepted your invitations, some of them might not be in the neighbour list. Maybe, need to wait for one hour, or day later, then they will only appear.

3. Okay, there is a "free" Tax collector who will collect some coins for you after every 5 minutes. Sounds great right to have free stuff BUT he will get tired really fast and go to bed if you keep clicking on him.

4. To have a new neighbour, you can get 500 coins for first visit. Wow! BUT you will only get around 1x coins only if u visit them the following days =( I only have around 1x neighbours at the moment, means I can get only around $100 extra.

5. In this game, we can build 'Wonders' like Stonehenge, Sphinx, Pyramid, etc.. And, you need materials to build it BUT to produce a material it needs 24 hours. And, we can't exchange the material with friends nor build more mines to get the material. I really hope PF can let us have daily random material as gift. 24 hours for 1 material is really TOO SLOW.

6. I don't play the ME music because I have my own playlist. No matter how many times I click the stop button, the music will be played again when I load the game the next time. PF, pls make sure ME can remember my game settings the next time I load it.

7. I do not who play this game, and I do not who to gift the items.

This game has only been launched for a week or so. I think we should give it some time to improve since it is pretty new, just give it some time =)
