Realm of the Mad God Exalt

This game would be truly great if it wasn't as P2W as it is. (Pets are a huge part of longevity in this game, and acquiring a good pet and feeding it to a decent level, such as legendary, could cost dozens or even hundreds of dollars).

Realm of the Mad God is a smooth running, action MMO RPG that is challenging and fun (but it can be a little frustrating at times if you lose your items). The game features random world generation and rewards exploration while at the same discouraging it in some ways: This may include: Encountering monsters that are to dangerous for your build, wandering into territories that are to dangerous and are inhabited by monsters far too strong for you to handle, and last but not least; entering dungeons containing dangerous bosses and even more powerful monsters (which may drop rare loot: Ironically somewhat encouraging exploration of these territories). Generally speaking, you're going to die a lot in this game... But you can overcome it through a lot of patience, nimble maneuvering, adapting to enemy patterns, retrieving good loot, and cooperative play... You may like this game if you like RPG games where you acquire loot and that have rogue like elements: if you like difficult RPG's-- you're going to like this game. On the other hand though, some of the harder bosses and monsters in the game have insane attack patterns that are reminiscent of bullet hell games. I would recommend this game to players like games with RPG elements and that are extremely challenging! Good Luck!

very addictive game to play with friends... or alone if you got no friends

This game is by far the best Free-to-Play I've ever played.

The game does kinda require you to purchase some in-game items to play it in a decent way.
I don't know if I would recomment this game to any of my friends,
since this game is really hard, and when you first start playing it looks like a garbage boring game.

Short:

• If you love a challange, download it ASAP
  
[*]If you're an easy rager, don't play this game.

Man where do I even start with this game.. I started like 12867 years ago when it came out on Kongregate and it was awesome! Wild Shadow did everything perfect with this game. Then Kabam bought them out and turned it into more of a pay to win. Kabam did some good, but mostly bad. They owned Realm for a long time, but very recently a company called DECA bought it from Kabam. DECA has been incredible in my opinion. They have released more updates in two months than Kabam did in 5 years. New things and skins and map changes, it's exactly whatneeded to happen. So, I definitely recommend this game to anyone who wants to play it right now. About 6 months ago I would've said not to bother. I just hope DECA keeps with it

Confusing fun game!
I played it before steam and in-steam too... still dont understand how most of the options in-game work - but this is so much fun that I didnt really need to dig into details to play... Recommended for a few hours of fun and then delete lol

possibly the most rewarding game i have ever played as far as personal accomplishment through skill improvement. take some hours to get through the learning curve but once u can stand close to a boss and never get hit it becomes outstandingly fun to play.

ey iz pretty gudt dem memories ('b') but now it is just a fucking cunt game i hope they fix it but because im nice
so i recommend dis

I've spent more money on an 8 bit game than I have on literally any other game please help me.
also this is a good game do recommend

Edit: For the sake of being 500 hours in I'm gonna rewrite this as an actual review. This game is one of my favorites to waste time on, due to the fact that there is ALWAYS a form of progression, whether that be items or fame or trying to earn new skins, there is always a goal to accomplish. It can quickly go from a quick time wasting game, to a full fledged dedication, which is what I love about the game, the fact that it can appeal to more than one group of players. Pets and microtrasactions have plagued the game for a while, but that doesn't change the fact that you yourself do not have to pay for anything. Sure, it helps (as of writing this I have a combined total of like $100 spent on here), but I didn't buy a character slot till I got my first 4/8 (half maxed) character, and I did just fine with one slot.
Do I reccomend?
Absolutely

The game is actually pretty fun with friends, though I don't think I would play it by myself. Additionally, perma-death makes the in-game purchases of items completely pointless. Otherwise, I enjoy it and there is absolutely no barrier to trying it; it's free and the download size is like 35 mb.

i have no idea how i haven't written a review yet after over 1,000 hours but anyway this game is fun and addictive but if you really wanna play this game alot be prepared to spend money because your gonna need more vaults and characters

The mechanics are that enemies flail around on the screen so fast that you cant possibly lead them with decent accuracy, whilst they shoot at you through solid objects, whilst they can pass through solid objects (hint: you can't shoot or pass through solid objects, so get f**ked).

Every time I come to this game i hope for a decent bullet hell game, and every time I'm dissappointed.

[h1]Even though this game is simple and decent fun, it's pretty dull and repetitive once you play it for a while.

There are micro-transactions of some level, which is pretty much inevitable in today's free to play titles.

At least it's free, and you can play it a fairly decent amount without investing any money in it.

Great Game would recommend give it a while when u first try it it might feel wierd but thats like every new drug you try. If you find friends this will be a crazy fun to play trust me this is my second account prob have like 2k hours in it would 10/10 would play its free.

Out of my respect, for the game's developers, some people may argue, that this game is actually GOOD. Well, at least it WAS.

However; in recent updates, the controls are now TERRIBLE, and are barely even responsive, (either that, or it's my crap internet, from "AT&T") and that PISSED me off, into a meaningful RAGE QUIT, only without anger, involved! I hope they fix the controls.

The gameplay however, it isn't HORRIBLE, and the game itself, has a GREAT basic idea, with a simplified action MMORPG, with a permadeath based system!

Will I ever reccomend this? If they ever fix the controls, then the answer is "yes"; otherwise, if it's NOT the game itself, but a crappy wi-fi connection, then I should HIGHLY suggest sticking with some of the BEST video games, that don't USE online gameplay. Like "The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim", or even "Mighty No. 9".

In my honest critique, "Mighty No. 9" was ONLY "hated" by fans, because they were expecting WAY too much, for a "Mega Man" alternative. But however; believe it or not, I played it, and it ACTUALLY isn't that bad! For $20 or less, it's actually a good deal! And if you LIKE the classic "Mega Man" series, you should POSSIBLY like "Mighty No 9.", as well! (Haters gonna hate; even if you don't like it, at least it's better, than those greedily made social games, such as "FarmVille"!)

When u start this game
You're gonna hate it
Then, u quit
U come back
And u start again
Then u start playing

After about 400 hours more and almost a year later of game played i decided to right a postive review and delete the old one deca has made the game 1000% better with new content every week almost from events,dungeons,items, and much more deca has brought this game back from the dead Its not pay to win anymore because the login seer you can get skins,char slots,vault chests and feed power this game is a lot better and ive had a better experience playing the game
KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK DECA!!! - im at 3k hours now games godlike

10/10

Because Pay-to-Win isn't really possible, even with the best equipment and max stats, if you're garbage, you're garbage.

It's a fun time waster. Pretty user friendly, free to play. Get a couple friends to join you and try to take on the world.

What I really like about this game is the fact the whole server you play on directly has an impact on the world. In order for you to get to the final boss, you must work with the rest of the players defeating all kinds of monsters. This can be very challenging because once you die, you must start from level one.

It's really easy to pick up and play any time.

I love this game, it's easy to get used to and it's easy to play with friends, there is alot of lag but thats just because of how many people play ROTMG, they just go on and fill the servers. So please play.
