Hey all,

My wife is going to be going away on business next week for about 2 months and 1 week, and we are trying to find a good game that we can play we each other every night or few nights to keep in touch.

She isn't terribly into games (though she did level a Warlock to 32 in WoW before quitting), and I don't see her wanting to buy it at the store or paying a monthly fee. She is not a fan of anything futuristic, and it needs to be simple enough that she can just pick it up and go (So nothing like EVE, Pirates, or any of those other steep learning curve games). Would also probably prefer a game without a huge level grind.

Any ideas would be much appreciated.

p.s. She loves Vampires, but it doesn't have to be a vampire MMO because I don't think there are any good ones anyway.

Buy the box for her, and pay the monthly fee, duh. You're the game geek, not her. The least you can do is pay for it if she's going to play with you.

You gotta remember that my money is her money, and vice versa.  So if I buy it and pay the monthy subscription, its going to be deducted from the joint account anyway, so.....

Sounds like your needs would be suited to a FLASH game.I am in a lazy mood,so just google flash games ,maybe you find something useful.

Runes of Magic may suit your needs.  F2P and very WoWish, so it will have next to no learning curve.

Dude, this brings back memories of this one time le GF went on a business trip and met "fabio"........anyways.

Just buy a game and pay the monthly fee, and tell her to watch out for any fabios....srsly.
