I have to say I found this game fun....I bought it with my credit the minute the hour was up. I had to say the prior reviews gave me pause....not really sure how it would be, but I found it fun.....okay...disclaimer...there will be a lot of reading at the start...I like reading. So I enjoyed that part. The one liners to me were funny....okay they were cheesy, but I must say I enjoyed the humor of them.... One particular line comes to mind... "I'm the tooth fairy come to loosen your teeth" Okay...I may have a wierd sense of humor but I thought it was funny as well as some of the other's..certainly try the hour if your not sure. As to the battle sequences, I found them to be nice, with the usual ability to pick which attacks to use. Some were slightly tougher than other's so the attack's came in handy. The monster's were nice. I HATE the invisible monster's that some RPG games have, so I didn't mind the tornado like monster's barreling down the paths towards me. To be fair i could avoid a few but in order to power up I had to fight a lot. I didn't mind that part as it comes with the territory of an RPG. Overall I liked the game and the story. There are lots of chests to open, and it's fun talking to people in the game as quite a few of them had something funny to say. I may be easily amused. SO JUST TRY it and decided for yourself. I thought the music was fine, but i had to turn it off due to trying not to disturb others, and while the music went away the battle sounds didn't. Not a deal breaker, but if I hit turn of music and that's the only sound volume I do expect it to turn of ALL the sounds. I minimized it since I can only work on part of my computer and it took it down to a four in square box that was rather small but I could still play on. Full screen is fine, but I couldn't use it because my computer screen is broken. I think it's fine as a nice soothing RPG....Not too overcomplicated. Just fun!

It?s a nice RPG, if u like 3 star od destiny or Ayenond games u will like this one.

This game is not for someone new to RPG's. There are little in game directions, so you have to read the dialogues! They actualy do tell you what to do or where to go next. However, there is no journal to go back to. As someone who LOVES these types of games, its an extra challenge for me. The monsters are just right, not too hard, not too easy. If you develop a good system you can knock them out without much HP loss. Some bosses are hard, but they are supposed to be. I had to go and level up to knock out a couple of them. Just note there are forums out there that address the most common questions or problems you may encounter, so don't get frustrated. The game won't let you go anywhere you are not supposed to. Over all, I liked it! This is not a 4- 6 hour collectors edition Hidden Object game. This game takes commitment! I'm not done, and 30 hours in. Some people have finnished in 50, so you get your money's worth!

Due to the ridiculously high encounter rate, I played this in short bursts over several months. It is not the kind of RPG you play in one weekend or so. I liked the art style (the backgrounds are similar to those in Vagrant Hearts) and the music. A couple of the towns and dungeons were cleverly designed.

Fights are annoying and boring, but other than that, i enjoyed playing it. I really dont think it is as bad as some of the reviews on here say it is though.

i read all of the bad reviews...this game is like any other online RPG....all have a LOT of dialogue and monsters...but it was FUN!!

I've played through to the end, and while this is no Aveyond, the game does have its merits. I don't regret buying it and I had fun while playing, so, I guess that makes me a happy camper, overall. On to the particulars: 1) The story has a logical flow. You know what the characters are doing and why they are doing it. There's a little mystery with Elphaba, but it doesn't interfere with your other tasks and you'll get the answer to that in due time. That said, I really don't like the whole "the rich rulers are oppressing the masses" speech, which seems to be such a trademark of these types of games. Probably because I'm a business major and know a thing or two about macro-economics. The way this game and others like it (particularly Millenium) try to explain the "problem" is ridiculous and one can tell the writers have no clue in matters of Economy, or philosophies. It reads like propaganda or socialist rhetoric, so that bothers me a bit. Although, to be fair, this game does it less than others. 2) The dialog is funny and witty at times, which is always a good thing. But the spelling and grammatical errors are disappointing. One in particular that drove me a bit crazy is the use of the word "then", instead of the word "than". That mistake is made A LOT of times. Also, the wrong use of the words "there" and "their", and "its" and "it's". It really bothers me when I find that. The number of mistakes increases toward the end of the game, with typos even in the characters' names, missing words, and transposed letter. This makes me think that the developers were on a deadline or that they were just tired and wanted to get it finished. 3) The overall flow is very linear, which is neither good, nor bad. It?s a matter of what a gamer likes. I don?t mind linear stories, they are easier to follow, and in games without tutorials, walkthroughs, or strategy guides, such as this one, that may be the best way to go. The chances of

The biggest problem with this game is that the battles take forever, and there are a lot of instances where you have to backtrack through areas. This factor alone can make you grit your teeth if you're playing for a longer amount of time :P However, despite the grammatical errors, the story itself become very engaging, plus the humor in the dialogue is often very entertaining. For that reason, my review is very skewed. For the battles/backtracking, I'd give this rpg about a 1.5. It gets really old! But the story and dialogue are usually very good, and I'd actually give the game a 4 for that.

Rather old school graphics that we've all played before on Big Fish RPGs. Sounds during battle were rather annoying. Also, I'm a bit of a stickler for spelling & grammar and I had plenty to "stickle" on this one. However, BFG has so few RPGs that come out, I usually put up with it. Story is pretty standard, not very well-thought-out. Two biggest complaints: levelling up & the train. I hate to get to a new level & have no points to spend! I like to customize my character & choose her spells. You don't need to hold my hand on this. Fairly early on, you ride a train & need to jump from car to car. If you don't get the cursor in just the right place, you end up stuck between the two cars & can't move---AAARRGHHH! Now if all I had to do was save & reload, fine, but you end up stuck again, have to go to a previous save & load from there. I am a firm believer in saving all the time, but this was just frustrating. I wish I could recommend this game, but sadly, cannot. There are many other RPGs out there worth the money, but not this one.

A simple, straight forward rpg. Fun in it's own way but not highly intelligent.
