Poetry contest duly won.

About 'arcada mia' - Raise your family generations from simple laborers to rulers of the land. The journey is rich in discovery but fraught with ruthless competitors. The tides of drama, as civilizations rise and fall, challenge the hardiest dynasty.

The casual gameplay is entirely new. Easy to pick up and play, its depth of strategy is dizzying. Every turn, optimize the creation and use of resources. Interact with peers. Make allies. Fend off rivals. Pursue romance for social, material, or love's advantages. Prepare children for adulthood. Navigate rites of passage. Build on the work of ancestors or establish new heritages, to withstand the tides of history. Every turn will leave you wanting to play just one more... but it's even fun to play a few minutes at a time.

arcada mia - Raise a dynasty to master the ages!

It's your family drama of civilization; 'Passage' meets 'Civilization'.

arcada mia - Begetting around, early 2011.
