Game Review #1

Kingdom of Loathing is the first to be reviewed. It's rather silly, but still a fun game, its a browser based MMORPG, and if you can you should donate to it, its an awesome game. even though it's silly, it's better Role Playing than most supposed MMORPGs out there, as far as options go. It can get a bit toilsome, and having you recharge only 40 (of 200) adventures a day, and all at the same time rather than at intervals is kind of annoying, but the other cool stuff really makes up for it. There are 3 basic skills: Muscle, Mysticallity, and Moxie. there are 6 classes:
The Seal Clubber
Seal Clubbers hail from the frigid Northlands, because one character class always hails from the frigid Northlands. They rely on their Muscle to survive.
The Accordion Thief
The scourge of mariachis and polka bands, the Accordion Thieves have plied their malign craft since time out of mind. Their Moxie serves them well in both their adventures and their interactions with "the ladies."
Pastamancers are a mysticality-based crafting/spellcasting class with the ability to summon and cook noodles, making some of the best foods in the game. They can also learn combat and healing spells
Saucerors
are mystical spellcasters who can cook potions and sauces, ingredients of powerful noodle dishes. They can also create saucespheres, shield buffs which can damage enemies, restore health and bestow other effects. They have offensive combat spells and passive skills which increase spell damage
Disco Bandits are a moxie-based class with high evasion and the skills to make advanced cocktails, highly potent booze. They also have combat abilities which weaken their enemies and looting skills which increase item and meat drops. They, along with Accordion Thieves, can pickpocket enemies to steal their items, including some items that can only be obtained from pickpocketing.
Turtle Tamers are a muscle-based defensive class, with combat abilities that depend on and enhance their armor. They can learn to craft armor and cast a number of defensive and familiar-enhancing buffs

I'm a level 11 Turtle Tamer, which is harder to do than it sounds. if you get stuck on a quest (except the Epic Weapon Quest) go here, it's a very helpful site: http://www.zerokelvin.org/kol.html#q-lew.
in all, KoL gets 4 1/2 Awesomeness Points out out of 5.
later people.
(pay no attention to the Blue words, btw, i got the class stuff off wikipedia, which reminds me:
