The verdict
A unique, hardcore first-person full-loot PvP sandbox with deep crafting and Ultima Online vibes. Skip it if you dislike ganking, subscriptions, or dev/GM trust issues.
Great for
Hardcore sandbox fans and Ultima Online veterans who want risk, player-driven economy and guild play
Main risk
Getting repeatedly ganked as a solo newcomer while paying a sub for a small, dwindling population
What changed in the last 30 days
39 recent reviews
Many recent negative reviews cite an ex-employee's claims that devs and GMs avoid banning cheaters and RMTers, plus the sub and low population.
