VIKINGS: WAR OF CLANS from Plarium.

I'm not a fan of Vikings, but this game is awesome.
It comes with many effects, many development options, simplicity, and good game management.
I started playing while working on my computer and I was not bored with the game's tasks.
The game starts with a tutorial that guides you and then you will make your own decisions.
Tasks are multiple, starting with the development of the village with materials, human and other complementary resources.
You can create and customize your own hero.

The game can be found here.
This is one of the videos from official youtube channel:

News: Re-release of 0 A.D. Alpha 23 Ken Wood.

The development team of 0 A.D.game, tells us:
Wildfire Games, an international group of volunteer game developers, is happy to announce the re-release of 0 A.D. Alpha 23 “Ken Wood”, the twenty-third alpha version of 0 A.D., a free, open-source real-time strategy game of ancient warfare. 

This version is a maintenance release. Blocking bugs were fixed and security and legal issues were addressed. The gameplay remained untouched, and both versions of Alpha 23 are multiplayer-compatible; however we advise you to upgrade to benefit from the following fixes. 

The team wishes to apologize for the delay in re-releasing. We have addressed other issues whenever we couldn’t make more progresses on the game itself, so the re-release has not been a completely negative procedure.
You can read this from the official website.

YouTube - Premiere feature.

It's an older feature that YouTube has been releasing two months ago.
The YouTube comes with a new feature named: Premiere.
The goal for YouTube users is to be able to organize and distribute video content on a specific date and on a specific target.
What's interesting about it?
Once a premiere is scheduled, a shareable and public watch page is created. This page shows the video metadata, including title, description, and thumbnail. In addition, the video will eventually premiere on this watch page URL. Viewers can start interacting through Comments and Live Chat before and during the premiere.
A very good part for the target is raising money for the Premiere feature.
You can read more about this feature here.

Star Trek Online Age of Discovery by Arc Games.

This is the best free online play of an MMORPG game.
If you play the old games like Freelancer or Librelancer then this game is more advanced and with many goals.

The development team comes with this intro:
  Explore strange new worlds, seek out new life and new civilizations, and boldly go in this expanding vast universe.

What I liked is the gradual ship-to-staff development system.
The story is beautiful, but sometimes it can happen to get the story back.
However, these small impediments do not take them out of the beauty of the game.
It is a game with many video scenes and nicely arranged spaces that will surprise you.
I was amazed at how much information I was able to put into this game, making it huge and non-monotonous.
I try to find a good video for this article but I don't find it on the official youtube channel.
Anyway, I select this to have a simple into:
