WAKFU

Wakfu is a free to play 2D tactical turn-based fantasy MMORPG developed by Ankama Games, in conjunction with Square Enix. WAKFU features a robust and diverse class system and strategic, turn based gameplay. To end the description there would do the game an injustice though as WAFKU also boasts a more “persistent” type world in that killed enemies or gathered resources might never appear again. The game’s two dimensional, anime art style has spawned a series of anime shows and comic books. In game, players can take part in crafting, PvP (also turn based), and even mold the world they play in. Farm and replenish the land, or take what you want and leave nothing for others, the choice is yours. WAKFU’s in game systems extend even deeper though as players compete to win over others in a bid to become Governor in player led elections. Upon creating a character, players are quickly given all of their class’s abilities very early in game and progression is left to the player’s own desires. Skill up certain abilities the way you want to play and at your own pace. While WAKFU is technically free-to-play, this title certainly benefits from a subscription as much of the game can feel limited if you are not paying the subscription fee. The subscription costs are low when compared to most subscription based MMORPGs, but players will want to check out the free portion of the game a bit before deciding if the game’s unique style and systems are worth your hard earned cash.
