make or like on this list.



Week in Review

My game of the week was Wurm
Online
. This game from OneTooFree AB is a real sandbox
game akin to the multi-user dungeons (MUDs) of the previous generation.
It runs in Java and actually looks pretty good. The real issue is
whether or not today's gamer is willing to work for his game anymore. I
mean, are we completely spoiled by quest non-player characters with
exclamation points above their heads?



It only took me one night of playing to answer my questions about style="font-style: italic;">Wurm Online. I'm
too lazy to play a MUD these days--no matter how pretty that MUD is.
So, Wurm Online
does not make the list. That does not mean it is a bad game. It just
doesn't fit my style.



Like a girlfriend I just can't stay mad at, style="font-style: italic;">Mythos has
reclaimed the number 1 slot on my list. I truly believe the game is good
enough to be a pay-to-play game. Luckily, we'll get it for free.



The List


Next week, I will download Cabal
Online
based on a reader tip.



Here are my Top Ten Free-to-Play Games for the week.

Even if the current lag in development has me worried about style="font-style: italic;">Mythos, I can't
deny that it is the best game on this list.

I may have hit a wall for what I can do in style="font-style: italic;">Mabinogi for free
recently.My character ages too fast for me to play casually.

is a fun game to jst pick up and play casually. It

Warrior Epic

allowed to talk about it, though.

Runes of Magic
has the look of a polished game. Here's hoping the translation gets as
much attention as the graphics.

Requiem
would make an awesome online multiplayer game for PC or any console. As
a MMOG, it loses something after 20 levels or so.
