So like half the Western world it seems these days, I'm on Facebook, been on for about 6 years now. Not until the past year or so did I really start getting into things on there, in particular, a few games. Mafia Wars and Family Feud were the first two big ones for me (no, not into Farmville, not into just about all the other ones actually). My nephew, recently, introduced me to a new game he found in Beta on there called "My Tribe."
It's RPG-ish, you control a tribe of people who live on your island and you help them grow, research new tech, and handle day-to-day stuff, etc. You can sail to new islands at a point, expand the tribe, blah blah. Originally, I was eh about having a new game until I started exploring around in it...
Hmm, does this kind of pic (this is a map of my own island, which you can scroll through hundreds of supposedly and pick one to start at, but you really can't change their names from what I can tell), look at all familiar?

The graphics in the game when zoomed out are really close to ST's. So much so I gawked and jumped a bit when going through it. I then had to explain to my nephew briefly what ST was and promised to show it to him when I see him next...
So I've decided to make it my own ST world. I've named all my island inhabitants after the game characters, will name any and all islands I get to name after islands in the game, etc. I've actually gotten into it.
Any thoughts? Look interesting to anyone but myself?
