    Superb. It's a game that can be played in 30-minute bursts or sessions that stretch long into the night, and its balance of instant gratification and long-term pay-off is beautifully done. It's the perfect game for people who love the idea of raiding, but can't afford to invest the time all MMOs require before the really good stuff - and all for free.

    Easy to jump into and damn near impossible to quit, this unusual free-to-play MMO hybrid is worth every second of your spare time.

    An anarchic lo-fi MMO with a refreshing disregard for your sanity. Unrepentantly simplistic and fun. [May 2012, p.94]

    The easy-to-learn combat system and temporary nature of characters make the game a blast to sit down and play for a few minutes, while more hardcore gamers will enjoy the challenge of survival while trying to hunt down the biggest monsters to find the best gear, and eventually top the leaderboards. While the lag in the game can be a problem at times, adventuring with smaller parties seems to alleviate most of it, and the developers are always working to improve the game. Furthermore, the combination of several popular styles of games into a single MMO makes for a fun, new, and most certainly refreshing experience. Realm of the Mad God is certainly a game worth taking the time to experience.

  1. Awesome game, and its free! Its an incredibly addictive mix of diablo, legend of zelda, and various indie games such as binding of isaac. I can't recommend it highly enough. Expand
  2. I assure you that the level of awesomeness of this game is high, its just something free, different, and fun which is what ultimately matters, who knew that such a simple game would be so entertaining? This is probably one of the free games that has a lot of time and gameplay to see before it gets old, and we don't get that ofter, especially in free steam games. The classic feel is great just like the enjoyable graphics and good character design, I found though, that what brings this game down is variation, things don't vary that much, classes specially. If the developers had of just mixed up a few things this would be extremely good, I want to see how this game evolves over time and if this gets fixed with updates which would be good. Overall you should download this game and at least give it a good try and enjoy it. Expand
  3. Un juego muy fácil de sintetizar: corres por ahí manteniendo el click izquierdo del mouse presionado. Para ser un MMO-RPG deja mucho que desear, pero como es gratis no hay mucho de que quejarse. Expand
  4. Been playing this game for 2 years, USED to be good, Now it has been bought by KABAM which damaged the game content to an extreme level, making it completely broken under every point of view.

    0/10 Friendly to beginner.
    0/10 Endgame content (Doesn't exist)
    0/10 Customer support (Mods and GM don't care and only Delete message from people pointing out flaws)
