Castle Age

I am compelled beyond comprehension to play Castle Age constantly. This Facebook app consists of waiting a set amount of time for enough points to spend on clicking a button, causing the random number generator which throws back a bunch of rewards. I’m getting to the point where a going to bed isn’t enough time to completely refresh my character’s energy and stamina points. Knowing that is a source of both pride and frustration.

Some of my friends and I have been sending alchemy ingredients to one another with hopes of gathering enough random crap to super-glue together to form a boss. When one of us manages a boss, I must assure you that it is on. We all team up; normal quest bosses fall in seconds. The super bad ass world bosses, however, seem to be unbeatable if we stick in our clique.

In a way I feel encouraged to meet new people via Facebook to bolster our ranks. On the other hand I don’t want to be exposed to the tons of spam adding a bunch of people I don’t know would generate.

I wouldn’t pay money to be subjugated to this game, but I’d like the social aspect of it to be detached from my Facebook profile.
