While not an STS game, its still a very good read on mobile MMO games and how it can affect your real life if not too careful.

Highly recommend reading it.

Feel free to share your experience with mobile MMO's to date. I'll post up mine a bit later.

I only play clash of clans like once a day to once every 4 days depending on how long my buildings need upgrading...

He played few months in hardcore mode, became celebrity, got a good job and lost some weight in the process. Doesn't sound so bad.
