Be a Magician Lord
I believe everybody know the game Magic - the gathering. It is a game that has inspired a lot of other games around the word. One of this games is The Lord. You are a magician, of one of the five colors (white, red, blue, black and green), united to a guild, comanding a kingdom and that attacks other players to be the first in the ranking. Simple and good.
One negative point though: it wasn't completely translated into english. Most of the site is in spanish.
Site address: http://www.thelord.cl/
Free: Tottally free. No costs, no ads.
Time spent playing/day : one log-in of 20 minutes each day is more than enough.
Have fun ;)

Diplomacy on-line for free
I had never played Diplomacy before finding this site. Diplomacy is similar to risk, but you number of troops is fixed: one for each supply center you control. As soon as you get 18 supply centers, you win.
In the free site I found, the map is Europe in the first world war. Can you rule the world?
Site address: http://www.phpdiplomacy.net/
Is it free? Totally free. The number of games one can play is based on the number of games one have won. It is a different system, and an excellent one, since it allows the game to be totally free.
Time spent playing: The time of the turns in the games vary. You can choose one that suits you well (the most common range is from 1 hour to 48 hours, as far as I can see)

RK: Level 4 and Level 5
Ok, taking into account how many years new things take to be implemented in Renaissance Kingdoms , Level 5 will take at least more 3 years. Sea Lanes and Medicine way are not implemented yet, and some functions of the Church Way - like preaching or the Bishop Office - needs to be coded again in the new site.
Anyway, the level 4, so far, has not proved to be as good as level 1 or 2. As Anto has said in the forums, "it sucks". The previous levels provided new sources of incomes to players, and the game got new things with it. Level 4 has only provided something for older players to do, players that the administrators believed were in need of something to keep playing the game (and this old guys buy tokens ;) )
It may be something to keep the game economy working too, since in France - more than in other countries - there was an excess of money. The county fame was made to take out money from Counties - what broke some English ones :( - and the level 4 was made so older players counld burn their money. Simple as that.
If money is the only motive, it is said that the level 5 will allow players to choose an additional "way". Like, Army Way and State Way at the same time. If you have not loved level 4, at least it will allow you to go to level 5. Don't lose your hope: the luxury points are being coded (and the promotion will be based on it), so level 5 will be there one day.
