Behind the Scenes of a Critical Event ~ Why We Had to Rollback
Thursday, October 10th, 12:12 pm – Lunchbreak – Travian Games HQ
It’s a peaceful day in the Travian Games HQ in Munich. Some employees are having lunch, some are silently working, some are playing Travian: Legends or just chitchatting with colleagues.
But all of a sudden something goes wrong.
Our Product Owner Brian receives an unusual message while selling an item in an auction on Travian: Legends, Martina’s (our Community Communication Manager) phone goes crazy with a multitude of Whatsapp messages from her alliance, our Slack channel where we communicate with the Legends on Tour Ambassadors starts beeping and simultaneously our inbox on Facebook gets alarmingly full.
It doesn’t take much to connect the dots. Something serious is happening and we are ready to kick-start our crisis management process. We run to our developers and that’s where it all began.

Community Calendar ~ October 2019
➡️ https://blog.travian.com/calendar/ ⬅️
- The Gold promotions will not be placed in the calendar, because they are decided last minute, so keep watching the Payment/Store Information section of our Forums for the updates about it.
- The speed gameworlds are usually planned when the previous one is over. This means that there is a high chance that this calendar will be updated often mainly to add new speed gameworlds to the list.
- For the game world number, please check the Forums.

5 Questions with Gerhard, Founder of Travian Games
After interviewing Brian, Product Owner of Travian: Legends, we decided to walk down memory lane once again with Gerhard Müller, one of the key figures that wrote the history of Travian: Legends as a game and Travian Games as a company.
If you don’t know him already, he is literally the one who came up with the game back in 2004 and one of the founders of Travian Games.
It’s safe to say that without him the Travian universe would not exist. And yes, it all started as a PHP hobby project and here we are, 15 years later, celebrating the game once again with its Annual Special, Codex Victoria.
