I know exactly what your first impression of this game is: "WTF! IT ISN'T EVEN 3D!"
"WTF! IT ISN'T EVEN 3D!"
But that doesn't mean you can't consider it as a real game.
MapleStory is an 2D MMORPG, altough it isn't as Massive as other MMORPG...
It's a free game (for now) and if you don't like those brutal and gore games, this is perfect for you (or your childs).
The only creatures you have to kill are snails and other creatures like that.
You can do some quests wich aren't difficult.
For example: You speak to a girl who's called May, and she asks you if you want to have training from her. If you accept the quest, she says you have to kill 20 snails. when you have killed them all, you need to return back to May, and you will receive a reward and some experience points.
Experience points will raise your level. The higher your level, the more points you need to raise your level.
When you are level 10, you can choose a Job. you can choose between: Warrior, Bowman, Magician (you only need to be level 8 to choose this job) and Thief. All those jobs have different specializations and all have there good and bad things.
