I could forgive the poor graphics (256 color, 4 fps) if the gameplay was good.
But it isn't.
The game is a complete grind. Day after day you slog away bumping in to creatures (apparently this is "fighting") for a "rank" (or, level as other games tend to call them). A rank might increase your chance of hitting a particular creature by 0.01% (and that's being generous).
No quests to speak of. No variance.
The only excitement is that if a monster kills you, you either lose all the training you did that day or you have to wait 45 minutes for someone to come and heal you and often by that time, you're too damaged to heal and you have to lose all your training anyway.
Seriously. Grind doesn't even begin to describe it. I thought warcraft was harsh, but it's nothing compared to this. For a slightly more pleasant, less painful experience I suggest you spend your evenings kicking yourself in the teeth.
Expanding on the rating categories:
Features: 1 (what features?)
Playability: 1 (i can click and make my character move around and bump in to things. That's about all)
Graphics and sound: 1 (Mono sound, 4 fps, 256 colors. Ummm, seems I cannot give negative marks here)
Stability: 3 (It crashed or froze about once a week, which isn't bad)
