Just a few weeks ago, possibly a month and a half ago, this game was buzzing around the net and I didn't look into it as I should have. But could'ves, should'ves, would'ves are just excuses of my laziness; so for some reason today, I decided to check their website out and found how awe-inspiring this cartoony game is. Even though I have not yet played it due to the other numerous mmorpgs I'm currently playing and school; the website, screenshots, and videos shows a promising game where players roam around freely in the world of Ellion which has 4 continents; "West Mile", "East Mile", "Heaven Sphere", and "Hell Road" .

Enjoy the different classes of Adventurer, Swordsman, Archer, and Sorcerer with the addition of Specialist classes. Just take a look at it yourself!

Right after my summer class was over, I decided to test this 2D game out for two weeks. I was surprised at how popular it was for a game that came out in 2003. Although there are still things to be added, I reached to level 63 with the many other players. This game is definitely something worth trying out, and if you asked the other thousands of players currently playing it, they'd agree to. I can't wait till the advance classes come out.

Explore the world of Trickster in this game which combines cute and fun characters in a 2D environment. Enjoy the wide range of skills, quests, unique drilling and card system. In this fantasy-like world, you can create your own characters and pick between different classes like bunny, sheep, fox, cat, buffalo, dragon, lion, and racoon. Depending on whichever character you chose, you will set on a journy in Cavalla Island mastering the power, magic, sense, or charm type.

Can I start by saying this game is definitely different. You start off confused in this small world you have no clue about. You then take a few hours to get the hang of every little aspect of the game and then it hits you. After playing it for a few hours, you start to feel a high state with its playful music, and funny but cute and colorful graphics. It's better than crack.

An mmorpg which has colorful 2D graphics in a vast anime-styled world. Enjoy the political and economical structure within the game like no other, and you will have lots of fun with real-time trading, stocks, and real estate. Choose from two different characters; Warrior or Artisan and customize them to specialize in certain weapons such as sword, axe, cane, spear, gun, or bow. Vote for a representative and control the game's outcome.

People compare this game to maplestory, and some say it sucks more than it. But I think its neither better or worst. The thing is, I enjoy Game&Game games, if that confused you, like trickster, nostale, and the rest. They are definitely a company that I'm keeping my eye on for more mmorpgs.

Yet another 2D mmorpg for those who can't stand 3D graphics. This is an easy and fun game that is less difficult than other mmorpgs. But don't let the easiness fool you, it has an enjoyable storyline, where players are in seek of the Dragon Gems. Begin by choosing your character's hairstyle, face, and fashion. Give him or her a name and choose between Warrior, Archer, Wizard, or Thief professions.

This game's storyline reminds me of Suikoden, a game I loved along time ago for the Playstation. Although after playing it, it doesn't remind me anything of it. Instead, it kind of reminds me of Ragnarok Online, with character and sprites that are similar. I thought this game was a replica or modification of Ragnarok that someone built off the game engine. Just beware that while you're playing it, you're going keep thinking "Ragnarok", but it's still enjoyable.

Venture off in this 3D mmorpg that is based on a popular Chinese novel of 108 heroes. A novel which has also been depicted in other games such as Suikoden (PS). Unveil this Chinese story as you battle intimidating monsters and make new friends who are also there to help you on your quests. Choose from different classes such as Major, Monk, Peasant, Thief, Literatus, and Taoist Priest and collect books to learn new skills.
