  8. Sacred-knights

    Sacred Knights is a new text based medieval simulation game, it is extremely addictive and an attempt to branch away from the mafia themes that have overrun so many games today. You start out as a nobody and attempt to make it to a powerful king, with good wealth and respect from other players.

     

    Link for the Game

     

    Hope to see some of you there...
