Hi All!
I know it's been a while...I apologize for not being on the forums much. My new job (working as a public high school teacher in South Korea) has been very demanding in terms of the time I have to spend making material, etc...I'm still busy now because this is the beginning of the second semester, however, I will be able to reuse my older lessons for most of my classes (I have new students now) so I will have a bit more free time...
Anyhow, I am still alive and I wanted to suggest a game for you guys to consider. The best parts about it is that it is free (although you can pay money for slightly better options you don't need them to play though) and quite addicitive! Alll you need is a brain, an internet connection and some patience. ^^
As some of you may know, I play battlefield 1942 fairly often and I am in a clan there (5th MRC). They are fairly nice guys...and I got 6 people addicted there (LOL does that make me a drug dealer? D ). So don't say I didn't warn you! It's addictive!
The game is on this website. www.airlinemogul.com
As I said, it's free. Every 12 hours you get 1 token which you can use to do things. You start off with 40 and it costs 30 to join a *room* which can last for many many years...
The basic idea is that you make an airline and try to make the most money by competing against other human players in real time. Every real hour is the equivalent of a game day, and every real day is the equivalent of a month (each month in the game has 24 days to simplify it). Depending on where you join, you get a starter plane and a bit of cash and go from there...
It's a bit geeky, but it's very very addictive. I just wanted to share it with you guys. You can even make an alliance so you can share hubs (and send planes to other destinations from your co-members hubs).
The game uses real data and stats on planes...it's not perfect but it's fairly realistic within reason and I can't complain as it's free.
If you are interested in playing, let me know! ) I will be happy to give you some starter tips and guide you until you are pulling in the big dough!
Hope you are all well!
hatsoff
