F2P MMORPG Seven Swords on the iPhone (Free)
Seven Swords MMORPG for Apple iPhone
If you have been waiting for a fun F2P MMORPG for the iPhone you are in luck. With the release of SevenSwords iPhone users finally have a game that does a great job of recreating the online roleplaying experience on a mobile platform.
While some games have been implementing online multiplayer for the iPhone, there are not many that do it with the level of polish that went into Seven Swords.
Players can choose from either a US or Japanese game server when starting out. Next they are taken to the character creation screen.
Players are given the choice of the four main classes (Gladiator, Scout, Sorcerer and Cleric) that all offer a fair amount of customization from the hair style and color, to height and body proportions. With the last choice being, Aurora or Lumen, one of two warring factions within the game.
Once you have created a character you are taken to the map screen where you can choose where you would like your character to travel. If you choose Aurora or Lumen you will be teleported to a main city where you can shop, interact with other players & NPCs and search for quests.
Unable to find any lowbie quests to start with I decided to grind my character a little to level up. Players can access various areas of the world through the map screen which will offer different hunting grounds, and also displays where PVP battles are occurring that players can join. The map also displays what areas are controlled by the two factions in the game, displayed in either green or red with a different icon for Lumen or Aurora.
Leveling up is straight forward grinding and at the time of writing this I was unable to stumble across any quests in the game. As such the game seems to focus on grinding, leveling and PVP. Combat is straight forward with an attack button, special skills and magic. Player movement is controlled by the use of a virtual analog stick which seems responsive and works well for the gameplay mechanics.
The game seems to run fairly smooth for the most part with minimal lag. Although I imagine this can vary day to day, and depending on the time.
Overall SevenSwords offers a very fun Free-to-Play MMORPG experience on a mobile platform. This alone makes it a very appealing game because of the freedom to take it with you. The game rating in the iPhone store gives SevenSwords 3 out of 5 stars where a lot of the negative feedback is being overly critical of non issues for a great F2P MMORPG for the iPhone.
In conclusion, I would highly recommend SevenSwords to anyone who is looking for a fun F2P MMORPG that fits in their pocket!
