I am proud to say this was the #1 strategy game on Big Fish Games for a while - and was in the top-5 at most of the major portals. If you enjoy a nice, relaxing game with lots of things to do and minimal stress... this should be right up your alley.

Whats cool about these is we didn't actually make any of them. Most were made by Big Fish Games, bless their hearts. A few were made by fans as well. Thanks fans!

I’ve been in Boomzap for a year now, and have comfortably settled into the virtual office lifestyle. Sometimes people come up with me with misconceptions about what that lifestyle actually means...

For the record, I can't get a lick of work done in public, so I don't even try. The way *I* use the freedom of the virtual office is to move my private office around at need. Some days I work at the in-laws house down the street while my wife helps her family, some days at my home office.

Most importantly, any hotel in the world is my office, and... Read More when I do business trips, I often schedule a day or two between destinations to just stay in the same city holed up in a nice hotel and getting work done during the daym, abnd plan business dinners and lunches in between - it's a very efficient way to get business done, and makes extended, multi-destination business trips less invasive on my work routine.

I also use this power to take trips to see the family, working in blocks after they have gone to bed or while they are at work, allowing me to spend time in other places seeing family on extended trips w/o impacting my schedule too greatly.

Almost every day I get a letter from a candidate with their salary expectations listed. This is almost always something like: “I am looking for something between $2500-$3000 (negotiable)”. This has two clear problems: 1) When I read $2500-$3000, I see $2500...
