### 2/5 — Too pricey

*2026-07-09, version 5.70*

I didn’t feel the need to even try the game after seeing how much coins cost. I’m not interested in games that charge high prices for store currency. FTP or not. Doesn’t matter.

### 3/5 — Hopeful

*2026-07-06, version 5.70*

Only just started I’ll leave a review soon

### 4/5 — Closest game I’ve found to WoW

*2026-07-05, version 5.70*

Just started but highly impressed. Reminds me a lot of World of Warcraft.

### 4/5 — Simple yet interestingly fun

*2026-07-02, version 5.70*

Just started playing and I’m finding it rather addictive, so I can see many hours of play time coming, would be five star if I didn’t feel like I needed to buy crown (or what ever the in game currency is called) in order to store anything, but we’ll see.

### 3/5 — Great but a little greedy

*2026-06-29, version 5.70*

This is the best mmo on mobile by far, I’ve been playing this game for around 4 years. It’s very engaging and there’s a lot to do with a great story and plenty of events, but the devs have definitely gotten greedy. Everything in the store is expensive, even the monthly pass went from $10 to $20 and you don’t actually get much for it. I recommend playing this but I don’t recommend supporting it financially.

### 2/5 — Eh.

*2026-06-27, version 5.70*

A game like this not having controller support is phenomenally bad.

### 4/5 — Great game so far

*2026-06-21, version 5.69.0*

I just started the game yesterday and overall I’m enjoying the game. Looking forward to seeing what end-game content looks like.

### 5/5 — Good game

*2026-05-29, version 5.68.0*

Fun game for old and young. I have played many years, quit for a while but started up again. Still fun. I always enjoyed the special holiday events, Easter, Christmas.

### 5/5 — Fun game!

*2026-05-20, version 5.67.0*

Like a basic WOW.  Fun to play and easy to play without spending money!

### 5/5 — Cozy and still active

*2026-05-14, version 5.67.0*

This game has stood the test of time and still has an active player base. You may need to invest in inventory but it’s cozy

This game was made originally for 9+ age and im 14 but couldn’t register with my age ,fix that please

### 5/5 — Perfect Game

*2026-04-08, version 5.65.0*

Love the content very good game!

### 5/5 — Amazing game. No auto!!

*2026-04-06, version 5.65.0*

Feels like LOTR online and WoW combined. No auto play. Highly recommended trying this game out since it’s so mobile friendly..! And best yet, you can bounce back and forth. Oh , did I mention it has massive zones to explore !!

### 5/5 — Fantastic

*2026-03-31, version 5.65.0*

Just what I’ve been looking for. Old school mmo, reminds me of the early days of EverQuest

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — No Rogue class

*2026-04-14, version 5.65.0*

I JUST WANNA ROGUE

### 1/5 — управление

*2026-01-25, version 5.62.0*

Управление обзор на прочь не хотят работать

### 1/5 — I stopped playing once I checked the cash shop.

*2025-12-30, version 5.60.0*

The subscription is too expensive for a mobile game.

### 1/5 — Another deleted review for no reason

*2025-11-19, version 5.59.0*

But the devs treat their players like garbage. And provide nothing but repeated boring tasks and promulgate their chosen and steal from their non chosen and make up cases.

### 1/5 — No comment. I cared for this game and community but a lot of my fears I feel are slowly….

*2025-11-16, version 5.59.0*

Becoming true and I’ll leave it at that.

### 1/5 — Pay to win game

*2025-10-16, version 5.57.0*

Unbalanced classes , heavy grinding with bad prizes .

### 1/5 — Horrible moderation + players

*2025-09-23, version 5.56.0*

My friend got threatened to be muted or whatever it’s called for defending herself over someone insulting her and making inappropriate comments about her/saying they were gonna do Inappropriate stuff to her. But the other guy saying all this horrible stuff didn’t get in trouble at all. This was all in public chat too. I don’t think I’ll be playing this game again since I can see that it’s full of gross people. What a bad first impression…

### 1/5 — No Rogue class

*2025-08-24, version 5.54.0*

No Rogues. For some odd reason they have 5 classes but not a Rogue. Closest class I tried was hunter and it just isn’t fun enough to warrant burying my time like I was about to. You stand at point blank range and see no animation of anything I don’t get it. Seriously disappointing. This was about to be one of the greatest. How hard is it to add. Edit- Wanted to play bad enough to try and you can’t even make a warrior dual wield. If you like the most generic classes you’ll like this. I thought it was going to be my mobile WoW.
Let it be clear this would have been my favorite mobile game. The graphics are perfect but the lack of classes after 15 years is inexcusable. Just make a Rogue PLEASE.

### 1/5 — Need better MMORPG experience

*2025-07-18, version 5.51.0*

Need rogue/assassin

### 1/5 — Characters deleted after inactive period

*2025-06-21, version 5.47.0*

Used to play this game. Came back here and there and now I download it to find the entire account wiped. No way to restore purchases either. Be wary for those that take breaks.

## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — Amazing!

*2026-08-30, version 5.74.0*

100/10

### 5/5 — V&H

*2026-08-27, version 5.74.0*

If I could give this game 6 stars it would get it! One of the best mmos I’ve ever played and the community is hands down the best I’ve ever experienced

### 5/5 — Awesome Game, Amazing Community

*2026-08-26, version 5.74.0*

I’ve been playing this game for a few years now and the more I play the more I love it. The developers are constantly making improvements and the other players are so supportive and eager to help. This is the one.

### 5/5 — Awesome!

*2026-07-23, version 5.72.0*

Such an amazing creation from folks who seem to really care — Thank you for all you do!

### 5/5 — New login pages on mobile

*2026-07-14, version 5.70.0*

Awesome — I love it and thank you BUT…

- The new login page is oddly missing the wide diversity of in game character types that allows the creation of all different configurations — Somehow the login page looks like a mayonnaise lovers  family reunion — They’re all white without exception and it’s not representative of this amazing thing you all have created. 

Again thank you for the game, I hope you can do something about the racial representation in the login pages on mobile.

### 5/5 — Great

*2026-07-11, version 5.70.0*

### 5/5 — Superb

*2026-06-27, version 5.70*

This game actually did what World of Warcraft of Blizzard fails to do

### 5/5 — Cant believe it’s taken so long for me to find this

*2026-06-14, version 5.69.0*

Best mobile mmo experience I’ve had so far. Membership isn’t cheap but the dev team is super active and clearly care about their game. 10/10!

### 5/5 — 👍

*2026-05-31, version 5.68.0*

Good game
