They are crooks

Pros: There is nothing that I like about this game. The only positive was that I made a few ingame friends.

Cons: I speant $500+ on this game for membersships and to buy scrolls from their "power up store" and how was I rewarded? They accussed me of cheating and banned my account. When I tried to contact them as stated in their own FAQ, I receiced a repeat message only that my account had been closed. They robbed me, and the better business bureau agrees.

The servers are quirky at best, lagging constantly. Turkish people have taken over the game and ruined any sort of fun that they game provides because when they aren't begging they're threatening to turn you in for cheating if you don't help them. Cheaters are everywhere in the game and if you do decide to play do NOT become an archer. They'll ban you. I reached lvl 65 and could kill many mobs with one shot. This is what got me accussed. But they didn;t even bother to check it out for themselves. They just closed my account.

There is absolutely no healp for new players. The quests are confusing as their text often misleads or gives the wrong information. If you do not buy scrolls and premium membership you are handicapped against those who do. They claim the game to be free to play but it isn't. If you do not buy a premium membership then you will be informed that only premium members can "login at this time". The servers are down for extended periods of time very often. Upon login you will generally be disconnected 3 to 5 times before you actually be able to stay in the game to play. Disconnects for no reason. It takes sometimes 10 to 15 minutes to login and after this length of time you will just have to try all over again until you can actually play the game. See above.

Save your time and money and skip this dog. If you do decide to try it take some good advice and don't become an archer. They make you guilty of cheating by asscociation, not evidence.

Great at first, but then the problems arise.

Pros: Fairly epic in scale. Creative, engaging and fun (at first).

Cons: 1. They tell you it's free, but, it's only "free" enough to snag you.

2. Loading the game is rediculously time consuming. After you login, the game simply closes and takes you to the "Premium" website. Then you have to go through then wait all over again before you can actually play.

3. Text is amateurish at best. From minor mis-spellings to misleading text during gameplay. At one point it says collect 10 of a certain item to receive a reward, then it says 20. But it shows success after 10.

4. Cheaters galore. If you're on a mission you can't accomplish it because of the cheaters. If you defeat a monster, the cheaters so kindly make the final blow and steal your treaure. Where is the fun in that?

5. Servers not up to par.

6. Absolutely no help. It's thrown in your face to figure out. After 3 days I'm still wondering exactly why I played. If you can't get another player to help you, you'll just have to either give up or play mind reader to see what they designers meant for you to do.

7. I just tried to log back into the game. Now, if this game is "free for all", why did it say "sorry for the inconvenience but NON PREMIUM PLAYERS cannot log on at this time."?

I can't believe cnet removed the actual feedback

Pros: Engaging, addictive, fun.

Cons: I can't believe that cnet removed the actual reviews so that these poeple could use multiple IDs to post how great this game is. It isn't great, it's disappointing.

1. Servers lag, won't coonect, etc.

2. There must be 80% Turkish people in the game and constantly begging for coins, swift, buff, you name it. And hardly anyone speaks english.

3. Cheaters, duppers, hacks abound. The textual aspects of the game are incredibly amateurish at best. Mis-spellings, and flat out errors. On certain missions you're told to find a number of items. Now what the person names and what you actually have to attack are two totally seperate things. This is frustrating for newbies.

4. If the game is free, then why are those who don't buy the premium packages denied access to the game? A gold premium membership would cost around $28 per month. Thats PER MONTH people. How many video games could you buy and own for that much in a years time?

5. Starting the game sometimes takes me 25 minutes jus to login. Anf after you finally login, the game just shuts down, and one of their webpages open to, you guessed it, the page to buy their PREMIUM package.

6. There is absolutely no help documentation. The newbie guide isn;t a guide, it basically gives you no information that you need.

7. Lower level players are killed so that the higher level players can gather all of the needed items. And when they kill you, experience points are deducted from your stats making it difficult to stay interested in the game. Once I was killed 3 times without ever even knowing what was going on. Finally I just laid there without re-spawning so as to not lose any more points. This in itself is rediculous. You haven't even got half a chance when this happens.

7. There are moreproblems with this game, which in all fairness could be a wonderful passtime IF management would step in and at least pretend to be doing something. Management (or lack thereof) has ruined this game.
