Atlantica online Gold

Atlantica Online is a strategic, turn-based, free-to-play, massively multiplayer online role-playing game from Ndoors Games.

I knew this was a different kind of video game company when I signed up, and saw a guarantee that if you decided the game wasn't for you when you reached a certain level, they'd pay you $20. (Of course that promotion is long over now.) I leveled my character to that point and had no desire to cash in on their guarantee. It's a fun game. It's well-crafted and it plays smooth.

The setting is Earth, with an alternate history. You're able to explore from Rome to North America, and meet and interact with non-player characters that are famous from history or literature. The genre is fantasy, with steampunk elements.

You can play either gender, with a variety of appearance options, but only a human.

As you play, you can unlock, obtain, and hire mercenaries to fight beside you in battle. Mercenaries have a variety of classes and you can build your force as you like. Battle formation is a 3x3 square, allowing weaker support characters like your healers to be in the back, behind stronger fighters. This can be changed even in battle if you need to make adjustments according to how a fight is going.

They have a lot of giveaways where cash shop items are given to everyone who is logged in at preset times, and challenges where you can test your prowess in combat against the GMs, with rewards for you, and all logged in players, if you win.
