I'm currently playing an on-line game called Evony. It truly is a global game.
I've seen people from Norway, Sweden, Indonesia, Australia, Turkey, U.S.A, New Zealand, Ukraine, Singapore to name a few...mostly kids & teens judging from what they say.
It's free but there are things you can buy to help out, but it costs 30USD minimum. I'd rather start again than spend money on a "free" game.
