Grinding might be boring for some, but boy...it's fun.

User Rating: 8 | Maple Story PC
By cheesenator | Review Date:
At first, people may think that all the grinding will be boring, but once you get into the game, you can't leave it. I met so many good friends(and some I'd like to forget) and had countless hours of fun. Be it grinding, questing, partying or just fooling around, maple really got me.

Gameplay: 8/10
The controls are really nice, The only problem is the lack of joystick enabling inside the game.

Graphics: 10/10
Cartoony backgrounds and character may be a little to childish for some, but they are really good for anyone that likes this style.

Community:8/10
Lots of jerks in the game, but loads of friendly people.

Music:7/10
Most of the time I play listening to my own music but there are some catchy songs in the game.

Character Development:6/10
4 1st jobs and 10 2nd jobs, 3 jobs advancements and lots of stats options. Lacks some context for different builds, since only the cookie-cutter builds are efficient.
