Trickster Online
Homepage: http://trickster.ntreev.net/
Free to play (Micro-transactions are available)
Character Creation(6/10):
One of the games weaker aspects are its character creations you choose from one of the available 4 character races and all you can do at the is decide the colour of your eyes,hair and shoes. Whilst it is very weak at first as you progress further in to the game more and more equipable shields and sword become available and this where you get to see a great variety of characters which becomes more aesthetically pleasing.
To sum it up Very restricted at first but Christ does it improve
Classes/Races(6/10):
As I have mentioned their are only 4 available classes to choose from they are Power,Magic,Sense and Charm. But depending on your gender these races split in to 2 one for each gender which is nice touch.
As you progress through the game Sub classes will be available For example Power Type is split up in to a sub classes. So at first a male power type will be a Buffalo then they can upgrade to be a Warrior and then finally a Gladiator This does give you something to aim for and keeps you playing
Movement(8/10):
Just click where you want to go and it does it for you. Its nothing special but it works
Leveling(5/10):
At first very easy to level up but as you progress further in to the game it just becomes a huge grind fest. The game constantly gets you to do Quests to gain levels instead of the simple monster slaying
Skills(10/10):
This is where the game really shines through instead of acquiring skills throughout the game by leveling up tour character instead you have a separate skill meter which as that grows allows you to by Skill cards and infuse them in to your body and that special skill will become available also the higher your skill level the more points you have to boost the skills the trick is to allocate a good number of points to each skill so they all have their use.
World(8/10):
For a 2D isometic game the world is huge with many towns and citys allocated with many monster filled forests, beaches, Caves, volcanoes, Snow there is huge variety of landscapes which is nice to see as most games today just use the colour Grey and Brown FAR to much
Beginner Friendly(7/10):
It doesnt throw you in at the deep end but for the first few hours it is just far to easy and after things become very dificult. A hard one to judge and explain
Overall Gameplay/PvP(9/10):
There is a lot going on here there are PvP arenas Guild Halls and Also a few mini games such as Card Battling being the most popular every so often when you beat a monster you might pick up a card that card will have a value and it can be used in a top trumps like game. Quite addictive when you have a good deck sorted out
Graphics (8/10):
Beautifully colored and designed Very rarely lags even on an old computer like mine. Just think Eternal Sonata. Graphically amazing.
Summary
Fun game but is it enough to keep you playing for more Thats a hard one if you like your Grind fests you might like it. In short Trickster Online is Easy to like But hard to Love
I have missed out detailing a few bits. I want you to be a little suprised
FINAL SCORE
(7.2/10)
