The Guardian:
On the surface, Evony is a pretty standard online strategy game – a simulation in which players take the role of a medieval noble who must build up an empire. But the way the game has been marketed has created a bit of a stir: the games marketer Bruce Everiss has charted the volume of spam being sent by its creators, while Jeff Atwood, a US programmer and blogger, has documented the ads’ increasingly racy nature – from a simple medieval warrior promising the game would be “free forever”, through a string of increasingly racy images … until, finally, it was simply advertising itself by showing a pair of breasts.
