### 3/5 — Why?

*2026-06-03, version 1.60.2*

My ipad air dont play,i play game but it out

### 2/5 — A great game spoiled by the dev and the staff

*2026-05-20, version 1.60.2*

A wonderful game with top class pixel art. 

The artists are masters of their craft. If you enjoy pixel art, then please explore this game. It’s simply beautiful. 

This game has been around for a while and has unfortunately failed to take off properly. 

Fairly recent p2w implementations have dampened the spirit of the game. Curse of Aros is now a shell of its original self. 

The dev is lazy, rude and obnoxious. The updates are few and far between. It’s a real shame. 

The worst thing about the game is the staff. The support is appalling. The dev doesn’t care either. 

For a game that is based on community, the main guy Skill ruins it all. I’d avoid this game. 

Five years ago, this was a five star game. Now, it’s no longer worth investing time into.

### 2/5 — Dead

*2026-05-10, version 1.60.2*

It’s a dead game. The player base is small and managed by moderators that are nepotistic. Development is non existent. Lots of potential lost due to lack of development and community.

### 3/5 — Eh

*2026-02-27, version 1.60.2*

It’s not bad by any means but there’s very little direction. And what direction is there is very confusing. I still can’t find the furnace to smelt ores and when I use the furnace interface nearby it just brings up keys? No idea where the actual one is because the smithing section says east of spawn. East of spawn is the key forge. How far east we talking? Best example I could give right there. Fun otherwise but feels like aimless wandering really.

### 5/5 — Excelente

*2026-01-20, version 1.60.2*

El mejor juego MMORPG, me gustaria que siga avanzando y sacando juevas cosas, como monturas, nueva animacion de los golpes con la espada etc

### 5/5 — tiba tiba ke band

*2026-01-17, version 1.60.2*

knp saya knp baned kasihtau alesan nya knp

### 4/5 — Game is good

*2026-01-03, version 1.60.2*

One of the best mmorpgs out there, been playing for years

### 1/5 — Ban for no reason

*2025-12-26, version 1.60.2*

I have spent a lot of time on this game just to get unfairly ban. Apparently for auto clicking, which I have not once used. Don’t waste your time. The game is a grind fest and if you grind to much you’ll get ban. Thanks for the time wasted.

### 5/5 — Amazing MMO

*2025-12-24, version 1.60.2*

If you like grinding and runescape this game is great! It has a great mix of grinding skills, pvm, and even pvp in the “wilderness”. It also has rare discontinued items, something missing in OSRS. A lot of fun

### 5/5 — Good

*2025-12-23, version 1.60.2*

Fun game

### 1/5 — Banned for holding my thumb on the screen.

*2026-08-19, version 1.60.2*

Don't waste your time or money on this game

### 1/5 — Ban Happy / Unresponsive

*2026-08-09, version 1.60.2*

Company banned me for falling asleep. They claim I cheated because the attack button remained pressed. In the game if you touch attack, and then your hand slides across the screen, the game registers you’re still holding attack. They claim I have auto-clicked. There is 1 continuous holding, not multiple times clicks. Then they claimed I used an object on my phone, unsure how that even works. Told them I fell asleep and my hand must not have left the screen. Instead of logging me out, which they have the power to do, they immediately banned my account with probably $500+ invested. Do not trust this company with your monetary investments. I promise you, one mistake and you will lose it all. I am filing through the App Store as they refuse to communicate with me after about 2 weeks of waiting for this appeal review. CAREFUL!!!!

### 1/5 — -.-

*2026-07-07, version 1.60.2*

Fun game, shame the chat box stops working so often

### 1/5 — Don’t bother

*2026-05-20, version 1.60.2*

Game is dead and the lazy dev Bart ghosted everyone a year ago. Nothing new will come.

### 1/5 — Pay to PLAY.

*2026-05-20, version 1.60.2*

Once you get past the first 100 levels, you either have to play for 30 hours just for the next level or spend money. At this point, it just becomes pay to play at a certain point.

### 1/5 — Play it’s your own risk

*2026-05-14, version 1.60.2*

The moderators in this game suck, they will permanently ban people with no explanation or proof as a first offense for whatever reason they come up with. So if you wanna put a bunch of time in this game, it doesn’t matter how many years you all your progress can be lost in a matter of seconds just because the moderators feel like it

### 1/5 — Unexplained/Unfair Bans

*2026-04-26, version 1.60.2*

They ban players and don’t even give them reasons most of the time. And even when they give reasons they provide zero proof of whatever they are accusing you of. Better games out there to play. Zero PvP aspects as PvP is dead here

### 1/5 — Trash

*2026-01-31, version 1.60.2*

This game like albion but cheaper

### 1/5 — カネゲーム

*2026-01-22, version 1.60.2*

カネ出さないと全然強くならん

### 1/5 — Das game entwickelt sich sehr langsam

*2026-01-17*

Ich spiele das Game schon seit Jahren und muss sagen das die Entwickler faul geworden sind.

### 5/5 — So fun but one thing

*2026-06-21, version 1.60.2*

I just completed the tutorial, but I can’t continue because each time I try to enter a username it always says “username already in use” it’s not a bug or anything, but what am I supposed to do

### 5/5 — Pretty cool

*2026-06-05, version 1.60.2*

The game is fun, although grindy, biggest issue is that I have to “request” account deletion instead of a progress reset button
