![]() More energy can be purchased with real-world dollars, however. Crystal energy doesn’t regenerate, and players start the game with 500 points. Mist regenerates at the rate of one point every 15 minutes or so, up to 100 points that can be carried at any given time. Crowns are used in the purchase and crafting of items. Crowns are obtained by killing monsters, selling equipment, and opening chests. Spiral Knights features a deep commerce system with two types of currency: crowns and energy. Some pieces can then be upgraded, for a cost. Any piece of equipment can go up to level ten. Rather than having you level up, equipment levels up as you gather “heat” from destroyed enemies. ![]() While it has guilds, commerce, and tons of people just like any other MMO, the the similarities end here. The first thing anybody will notice about Spiral Knights is how unlike other MMOs it really is. This still makes for what feels like rather limited combat, particularly against enemies who seem so adept at dodging that the concept of friction no longer applies to them. There are potions to replenish heath as well as bomb-like potions to that you can throw at enemies to damage them. There are also potions that can be gathered during your exploration. There is no magic, but some weapons can have elemental effects. Combat is based around three different weapon types: guns, swords, and bombs. Spiral Knights resembles The Legend of Zelda more than it does World of Warcraft in terms of gameplay. These crystals are then used to open up more paths, with a complex system that allows players to try and influence how those Clockworks are assembled before they open. Crystals are gathered as you go lower in The Clockworks. Since the Clockworks are constantly moving and changing, the dungeons change at regular intervals, providing a fresh experience almost constantly. You wander through isometric dungeons called Clockworks with up to three other people, destroying enemies, exploring, and gathering loot. Your job is to try and reach the core of The Clockwork to gather energy. You find yourself landing on The Clockwork, an ancient mechanical world. These are little steampunk-meets- Final Fantasy mage characters that wield swords, guns, bombs, and a shield, while wearing armor. In Spiral Knights, you play as an eponymous Spiral Knight. ![]() Spiral Knights is a recent entry into the free-to-play market, developed by Three Rings Design and published by SEGA. A multitude of other MMO’s have garnered great success in both the paid model and the free-to-play model. World of Warcraft (WoW) is the most lucrative entertainment property of all time. Massively Multiplayer Online Roleplaying Games (MMORPGs, or MMOs for short) are a booming business. By VGChartz Staff, posted on / 11,124 Views ![]()
