Entering the tower of Mallok, you will face a villain in the guise of a charming and generous prince; another with a beautiful voice of song whose chilling notes will enthrall the unwary; Zikiti, the brood mother of the arachnid horde, the she-demon of Bandicott woods; and Egan, the Ogre Overlord of Mulgrew Swamp.

Hope this is good... looking forward to trying it later adamphetamine Well-Known Member Jan 4, 2011 965 30 28 Programmer/3D Modeling Bethlehem, Pa #3 adamphetamine, Feb 26, 2018 Never heard of this game till now. From the two hours I played I definitely enjoyed it. Sure the graphics arent the best but graphics don't make the game, for example Lineage 2 looks great but the gameplay is horribly generic, while the gameplay here is fun. Give it a try if u haven't already, in my opinion it is worth it. batmessiah Well-Known Member Sep 26, 2009 78 0 6 R&D Lab Technician http://www.what-is-sleep.com/ #4 batmessiah, Feb 26, 2018 Super stoked to try this one out when I get home tonight! Ryzaerian Well-Known Member Aug 29, 2017 65 4 8 #5 Ryzaerian, Feb 27, 2018 A lot of fun so far. A full-fledged MMO. Stonebeast Member Jul 4, 2017 6 0 0 #6 Stonebeast, Feb 27, 2018 Any pvp? Is there any pvp? Couldnt tell from description. If not then I will pass. Ryzaerian Well-Known Member Aug 29, 2017 65 4 8 #7 Ryzaerian, Feb 27, 2018 I dont believe theres any right now, though there may be plans to implement some in the future. I usually PvP quite a bit, but the game still feels interesting without it. Its almost designed with a co-op mindset, with the villages and whatnot. Anyway, still worth a try I think. Just my 2 cents. RazvanClau Member Sep 4, 2017 21 0 0 #8 RazvanClau, Feb 27, 2018 Last edited: Feb 27, 2018 I don't have the time to play it, but I've spent two hours trying it out. Here is what I think about it. Graphics It reminds me of World of Warcraft in a way. It is very "cartonney". On my iPad Mini 4 it was struggling so I've reduced the graphical quality to low. The graphics are inferior to Lineage 2 but the worlds are a lot bigger. Overall, I find the graphics charming and it takes me back to World of Warcraft (vanilla), where the artistic vision used compensated for the lack of a good graphical engine. Sound Decent enough. The music is okay and there are partial or full voice-overs. This is something that surprised me. You don't see a lot of MMOs, especially mobile MMOs that actually employ voice actors for the NPCs. Gameplay You can not toggle autoplay. You can not set a destination and let it play itself or toggle auto-attack. You actually have to play. Because of this, it is rather slow paced. It is also a lot harder than anything I've seen on mobile. You have to rest between attacks (although drops usually replenish your health) and you can not simply farm higher level mobs. Progression is oriented towards questing (it makes a lot more sense than just farming) and it seems quite balanced without IAPs. Apart from this, it is your generic fantasy mmo formula, although done a lot better than the competitors. There is a village aspect I haven't played with. Closing Thoughts I think it is good. The problem is that it nothing new. It is the first experience of this type on mobile but virtually all MMOs on PC do it better. At this level of quality, I'm surprised that it is F2P because it certainly doesn't seem just as a machine to take your money away. Maybe there are paywalls later in the game, maybe IAPs are for the to be implemented PVP but right now, I hardly see why I would need it as long as the difficulty curve remains stable. If you like MMOs, play it. It's intriguing. It's impressive as a tech demo for what can be done on a tablet. Yes, it is a bit buggy and the world may seem quite empty but it is a full fledged MMO on mobile. The map sizes are big (a lot bigger than Lineage) and they seem diverse enough. Again, it reminds me of World of Warcraft back in vanilla. Give it a shot, even if it F2P. I think there are a worse paid games than this one. PS: As far as IAPs are concerned, they are extremely expensive. These are the kind of IAP that make you cringe. There is an introductory one for about one dollar that makes sense but paying $300 for a mount, no thank you. McDeathUK Well-Known Member Patreon Silver Feb 18, 2015 84 33 18 #9 McDeathUK, Feb 27, 2018 Just for clarity This game has been around for a very long time.. 2014 I think, and uses quite an old engine which can clearly run on mobile devices I gave it a whirl last night, and was pleased that we can now have a full and proper PC style MMO experience in mobile form if we wish. This is not an 'MMO' that we expect on a mobile device which ends up being a 'merge monsters together, rune them up, rare summon, grind the same dungeon over and over till you want to pluck your eyes out' type that infests the market, this is actually a good MMO with some nice story telling. If you want WoW (or as close as possible) on a mobile device, this is the one. No compromise, nothing missing, the full game and huge. Uses a microtransaction method that users of LOTRO and other MMO that went F2P will be well used to ac166 Well-Known Member May 15, 2014 382 12 18 #10 ac166, Feb 27, 2018 MFi controllers? Does it support controllers? Saucepolicy Well-Known Member Patreon Silver Feb 18, 2009 501 4 18 Crispy ex-game developer #11 Saucepolicy, Feb 27, 2018 I would argue that Gameloft's Order and Chaos series is the definitive WOW knockoff and there are several other games that offer the same depth or more on mobile nowadays. This game plays like an MMO from the Everquest/ Dark Age of Camelot era, which is not a bad thing if that's your jam. However, there has been a lifetime of usability and presentation improvements in the genre since those days that I definitely miss. Ryzaerian Well-Known Member Aug 29, 2017 65 4 8 #12 Ryzaerian, Feb 27, 2018 Wait, how much? Lol. The most expensive mount is 300 CROWNS which is less than 20 bucks. JasonLL Well-Known Member Feb 21, 2014 546 106 43 Male #13 JasonLL, Feb 28, 2018 Just want to give props to the super nice community this game has. I have only played for a short time but almost all the comments in their server chat were kind and helpful to the players asking questions. Ive read before that this is quite common in indie MMOs but its nice to see first hand. Ryzaerian Well-Known Member Aug 29, 2017 65 4 8 #14 Ryzaerian, Feb 28, 2018 These are my thoughts as well. Its not a bad game. But its incredibly time-consuming and missing a lot of the features weve come to expect from modern MMOs. In the end, it just made me realize that I miss Crusaders of Light, which Im reinstalling as we speak. xD maxbrickem Well-Known Member Aug 25, 2009 327 0 16 #15 maxbrickem, Feb 28, 2018 I read that this game is cross-platform compatible with PC and android? Is this true? And if so, has anyone seen any pc players? Ryzaerian Well-Known Member Aug 29, 2017 65 4 8 #16 Ryzaerian, Feb 28, 2018 Yes to both. Angelissa New Member Mar 1, 2018 2 0 0 #17 Angelissa, Mar 1, 2018 If you are a fan of Ultima Online, this is the best MMO you can get on mobile. Do not go in looking for a WoW clone, you will not find it in here. There is grinding, and lots of it. Many different gathering / crafting skills, and a simple combat. There is no PVP, and no incentive to pay any real money what so ever. If you want to grind for months on, this is your game. I personally enjoy it and the fact that it is connected on android/ios/PC means I can just log in whenever, do few quests or collect some ores or something, and log out. Recommended for old MMO lovers. Rothgarr Well-Known Member Dec 19, 2010 411 0 16 #18 Rothgarr, Mar 1, 2018 Those are some HUGE shoes to fill. UO to this date is STILL my favorite MMORPG that I've ever played. Angelissa New Member Mar 1, 2018 2 0 0 #19 Angelissa, Mar 2, 2018 Agreed. Until we get UO on mobile (IF we get that at all), or another similar MMO pops up, this seems to be the closest we will ever get to actual UO. Ahh I have such fond memories of UO. Ryzaerian Well-Known Member Aug 29, 2017 65 4 8 #20 Ryzaerian, Mar 2, 2018 If youre a fan of a game completely centered around PvP, this game with no PvP whatsoever is a perfect match. Thats what you just said. This game is nothing like UO. You can make an argument for EverQuest. But UO? Not a chance. (You must log in or sign up to post here.)
