Play Lord Of Ultima For Free Right Now
Do you like strategy games, but hate the hassle of having to pay for, download, or otherwise exert any effort to play one? EA's Phenomic studio has the game for you. Today they released Lord Of Ultima, a free to play, browser-based strategy game that requires no downloads, plug-ins, or even registration to play. All that's required is surfing to the game's web page.
In Lord Of Ultima, players are tasked with "developing a humble village and evolving it into a prosperous, highly customized capital," through the standard RTS practices of collecting resources, trading with neighboring cities, and waging war on other leaders. While you won't be controlling individual units on the battlefield, the game seems to support a considerable amount of depth – at least compared to the standard Facebook games fare.
It's worth noting that in order to save your progress, you will have to eventually register with the site. Still, it's nice to be able to check out the game without, you know, having to do anything. You can look at the screens below, or just go ahead and click this link to play it already.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
