Ah, the first game! My friends and I decided to start from the middle, and go one up, then one down from the start. This lucky game was well, lucky enough to be smack dab in the middle! Illutia is a 2D top down (I think that's what it is) mmorpg. Filled with little anime characters, and humorous items, I found it to be quite awkward. Why I say that? Well, It didn't come like that at first. You start out on an island, and learn the tricks of the trade. That part was all well and good. Well, when I was transported to Ipscus ( There are 2 starter towns) everything went weird. I was in the town, and had not a clue on what the heck to do. So I start to walk around town, looking for quests. I see people... with quests! I go to get a quest... I can't. To most of the quests at that. Well, okay then... I guess I'll go kill stuff. I see a TON of level 2 cats so I decide to kill one (against my cat loving nature) Well, if I remember right, I got out of the fight with 2 health left. Wtf?! I'm level 4, and the cat almost killed me? Well, to make a long story short, the fighting is boring, and slow (health reg. is super slow). Around level 5, I'm looking around for these so called classes. Well, after some good old research on the web, I find that if you search around town, you can find the class trainers. I decide to become a 'knave' (the game's thief/assassin). Well, not only did the class do absolutely nothing, I just wasted 200 gold. Oh wait! Low and behold, you can buy skills!!!!.... that do next to nothing. Oh, and in my whole exp. of the game, I saw two players. Wow, great chat. All in all, I was glad to hit level 10 (btw, the exp bar is really screwed up- the number goes down, the bar goes up?) and delete the game.

All in all, I wouldn't recommend that game to anyone, unless they have the time to really understand the game, and get into it. If so, you may as well, because it is a small download.
