It's a free MMO. It's a cheap medieval fantasy game that is poorly translated and buggy. But for some reason I enjoy playing it. There is next to no support for the game anywhere except the sparsely populated forums. Most of the players in the game are punk a** kids. But with the way the game works it hardly matters. There are no respawn penalties. You keep all your stuff / gold / exp when you die. It sucks because if you like to PK you never get any loot for it. The game is long. It seems short in the beginning but the level cap is somewhere over 150, so the fact that your first 10 levels take like 2 days doesn't mean the game is going to be over soon. In typical MMO style it will let you into places before you can solo them to encourage party playing. There is a simple but effective guild system. One thing I find lacking is the lack of guild wars. However all but the 5 lowest level maps are full PVP zones so you can get ppl almost anywhere when you have to. There are party dungeons for up to 6 ppl. Every instance dungeon has a level minimum, and multiple difficulties. The higher difficulties give better rewards. There is a shop called the D shop where you can buy items for acclaim coins. A lot of them are useful. I'm a big fan of auto potions. THe game can get tedious if you don't have friends around your level. I find myself wandering around alone a lot because I'm 28 levels higher than my closest friend. So I have to get crap exp to run with him, as he cant get into the higher level areas. All in all I give the game a 6 of 10. Largely because it's free, and the mechanics are solid.

If you play, my IGN is Lenrock.
