The game is far away from dead, but any high lvls have a danger to get hacked, tradescammed. I actually had to beware of anything I do. Like I was just gonna buy an sword and I had to plan it for like an hour just that I wont get scammed/hacked.
If I remember correctly, the highest (or was he second highest) player ingame "Prince" got hacked too, I dont know what happened after that since I have quit already.
But if you dont mind the danger and can get past hackers (at high lvl) it is really fun with egg parties and castle wars.
It was a nice game back in the days (2-3 years ago ).i was playing it almost from the first day ^^
i remember teh assassin partys..lol..
but then after half year the KalShop came out..everyone faked creditcard numbers..and bought items for free..everyone geot hacked..mostly high lvls,everyone using exploits..whole game was destroyed..
Situation is very bad now..the Hanin server was hacked and the devs had no control over it..realy bad.
