GRAPHICS (10/10): This game has the best graphics in a browser based game out there. Granted, these graphics are not like Everquest or WoW, but when I rated it with a 10, I did so with what they have to work with and what the standard is right now. As of now, there is no other browser game with better graphics (and when I say browser game, I mean no plug-ins required, such as flash). Another reason for the perfect rating is the game’s monster art, which is simply some of the best work I have ever seen on any game, ever. Their artist KNOWS fantasy art.
SOUND (9/10): Once again, this game soars above the others, and has music comparable to MMORPGs like WoW or FFXI. The only downside here is that they are midi files. They made them midi files for the sake of easier load time, and in a browser-based game, that is critical. However, working with what they have, those midis sound incredible!
GAMEPLAY (8/10): Combat is turn based, and moving anywhere requires the page to refresh. This isn’t so bad thanks to your cache, but it can get annoying after hours of play. Otherwise, the gameplay is pretty flawless.
COMMUNITY (9/10): The community for The Realms of Loria is really great. They are nice players, and are willing to help anyone. The only reason for giving a 9 instead of a 10 is that it is really quite small at the moment.
OVERALL (9/10): This game is simply incredible, on all accounts. The developers are always adding in new features to the game,. They are also always reading the message boards for suggestions and constantly fixing bugs. Best of all it’s totally FREE.
