This game is in development, it is fairly complex and heavy on diplomacy & strategy.

I need 10 players to test the diplomatic aspects.
Seems difficult to find people who like complex games.

sounds interesting but i think the concept of games lasting for ever and being limited to how much you can do per day is going to be a turn off for most people.
 
The game is designed for "those with no time" and wish they could play a deep game. The limitation is only to limit advantage by players who can stay in-game for extended periods.

But players can stay in game all they want, once your realm gets up to speed, there is lots of stuff to do.

There are players who only spend 5 minutes in-game a day and others who seem to be tweaking things every 15 minutes.

It is the complexity that is the main turn-off. But there are those who want that, its finding them that is the problem.
 
I think I'd be interested in helping
