The verdict
A beautiful, casual wuxia MMO with fluid combat and no pay-to-win, but the Western servers were shut down in 2023. It can no longer be played.
Great for
Nobody can play it now; of interest only to wuxia MMO fans curious about what was lost
Main risk
The Western servers are permanently closed, so the game can't be played
What players love
Cosmetic-only shop, no pay to win
