Maple story goes down in 2d side-scrolling MMORPG’ history. Free MMORPG with 2D graphics that looks like a console platform game. There are four classes in the game: Warrior, Magician, Bowman, and Thief. Each class has it's own special themed city. Despite its cartoon-like graphics, Maple Story is on of the most popular free MM ORPGs today. You tend to start playing and two hours will go by before you know it. Great game to play you should go try it out. First off, Maple Story surprised me a lot. This game has so much to offer like a HUGE community, hidden places, and every part of the world is free unlike game such as RuneScape. you’ll become a brave adventurer protecting the maple world, and if you’re exhausted from all the intense battles and competition, you may one day build your own house at a quiet rural village, enjoying the life of a recluse who welcomes visitors. your character more powerful and allows you to do things that add to better experience of the game. This game has no set time period, although it seems to be medieval at first. This game's graphics are ok but platforming element sets it apart from other MMORPGs, There are hovering chunks of ground in the air you jump on and move around on. It is odd, but it works great. The ones who complain about the leveling system are those who want to put no effort into something. They want to be a very high level person instantly without any work. These are the main jerks in Maple Story, just ignore them. The best way to develop an opinion about something is to do it yourself. Do not put limit on yourself. Your game can be what you want to be.
