Ancient War vs Mob Wars: La Cosa Nostra
Ancient War
Ancient War is a brand-new MMO RPG/strategy game that you can play for free directly on Facebook. In this game, you will need to choose one of 3 factions to join, namely Thebes, Athens or Sparta, before setting off to develop your city-state, recruit legendary heroes and their associated battalions, and take on your enemies.The gameplay here is pretty generic in many ways, but there are a couple features that stand out although they are not entirely unique. One such feature is the world map. Unlike many other games within the same genre, the world map feels a lot more real and alive as you can see the boundaries of each faction being drawn and re-drawn as players of the same faction work together to conquer other faction's city-states.
Another feature is the faction hierarchy. Each faction is governed by the players themselves and only the strongest players will be able to climb the ranks and assume one of the 4 important positions in the hierarchy. If you are the best of the lot, you can even be appointed King.
Ancient War isn't exactly a refreshingly unique browser MMO game, but it is not your run-of-the-mill game either. The gameplay is quite decent and the epic Greek-theme that it has may appeal to you as well.
Mob Wars: La Cosa Nostra
Mob Wars: La Cosa Nostra is definitely the perfect game to play if you are looking for an alternative to your favorite game, Mafia Wars or any other games like it, including Mafia Inc. It is similar in gameplay to Mafia Wars where you'll set off to build your criminal empire from the ground up by doing jobs, earning weapons, armor and vehicles, and recruiting a crew. However, this game has a much more polished interface maybe because this game came out later.It is also slightly more social due to its Elite Mobster feature where you can ask friends to help out just so you can gain some extra stat boosts. The game provides PvP, a guild-like feature called Syndicate, a pretty deep character customization, and plenty of cities for you to extend your criminal reach to. New content are added weekly as well.
Despite being somewhat text-based and old-timey, Mob Wars: La Cosa Nostra is still played by many all over the world and has entertained many more through the years. It's the perfect casual RPG you can play in small bursts throughout the day.
