Riders of Icarus

Worth buying? What 300 Steam reviews say.

Mostly Positive · 71%2016

The verdict

A unique mount-taming MMORPG that players remember fondly, but it was hurt by account wipes, pay-to-win and a dead playerbase. Skip it unless you want nostalgia.

Great for

Fans of mount collecting and taming who like casual, mostly solo MMO questing

Main risk

Dead servers, past account wipes and pay-to-win make it hard to play or invest in

What players love

What players complain about

Accounts and purchases wiped in migration

Mentioned in ~1 in 4 negative reviews

“I missed the migration period because you know, life happens. And contacting support about it they said that all of my data and characters are permanently gone with no way to recover.”
