Poxnora
Poxnora is a turn by turn tactical MMORPG made by Sony, similar to Dofus except the gameplay times are considerably longer. Poxnora gives a new experience to tactical games as they treat your spawns as "cards" which most games do not do. Poxnora is unique in itself just by the name, I have been observing the development of Poxnora and up until now is a big improvement. Quite surprisingly, the game is made by Sony entertainment which you don't see everyday. It's hard to believe a console developer is developing a free to play game. As we all know Sony is very successful so I do not have to go in detail about their history and how good they are at developing games. The unique concept of "cards" has got me interested as I could just be a collector though that would be very boring and not have a purpose in the game. What I like most is the "meaning" of the game as you can choose to play a ranked match or just a training match where you nothing to lose. The game itself has an in-depth story about each side of the game. As it is an extremely popular company, premium cards are always the winners to be fair, though for free to play users would not lose that easily.

Mythwars Online 2
Mythwar 2 Online is a turn-by-turn 2D/2.5D game made by IGG offering a different side to many of the other MMO's out there. Mythwar as you can tell has gone a long way as it has made a sequel of the original one. I have to say the original had so many improvements to be done such as translation, general movement bugs etc. During beta was at its peak of performance in the number of gamers in Mythwar 1 online, but slowly started to "die" out which is why a sequel just had to be made. Mythwar is unique in its own way as this is the only MMO that has a sequel which is quite surprising. As you can tell, I have been with Mythwar since the start of the game so looking at it now, is a big improvement. The main website looks as all MMO sites do, has a fantasy theme, which actually help new players as information is given on how to play the game. So as all fans know, I will be reviewing this game out of gameplay and graphics out of 10.

Dofus
After certain changes to the game, Dofus has re-released the new features of the game and is currently being developed. As most of you gamers out there, this game is mainly for a younger audience however hardcore MMO gamers are welcome to try this game as well. It seems that Dofus needed to go through many changes, I'm wondering mainly because of many places being unable to fight monsters and the map itself is quite confusing. The main aspect that I find they still have not improved in is the introduction to the game. As I start to make a new character in the game, I find myself having trouble when trying to navigate around the map. Ankama is fairly an experienced company in developing games, therefore the changes should be good. Dofus seems to be full on when releasing updates to improve the content of the game. As some of you guys know, strategy is not exactly my way of playing, as a typical gamer, I feel the game lacks excitement and thrill which is needed to long appeal to any MMO's out there.

Dragonica Online
So let's start of by saying that Dragonica is a 2.5D side scroller fantasy rpg made by gpotato. In most cases I do not really make reviews for such game types as most side scrollers lack depth and the real sense of appeal. Gpotato to start off, is a very well known company as one of their games called Allods has won a joystick awards which is quite impressive for a free to play game, so this company is full on when it comes to publishing and developing a game. The side scroller is one of the few which I find quite limited in most games no matter how popular they are, in my opinion my ideal game is with a lot of depth to the story, gameplay and graphics. Needless to say Dragonica is an excellent game in its field and actually has some of the depth in the gameplay. As a beat 'em up hack'n slash game, the appeal is indeed very low as there is a lot of repitition in combat but certain alternatives of the objective can make it fun. Apart from Maplestory, it's the first time I have experienced playing a side scroller, and to compare this to Maplestory can make it really competetive so let's see what this game has in store for us.

Darkthrone
Dark Throne is a browser based game made by Lazarus Software offering a strategical and calm gameplay between offense, defence and stealth. The aim is to have the biggest yet most secure economy and army. As you can tell it requires about 10-20 minuites of gameplay as the amount of things you can do is based on the number of turns. Through extreme advertising I think Dark Throne is really on it's way to popularity in-terms of browser based games. I have played Dark Throne since the start and I do have to say it has improved by miles as it is more fair in terms of race and class. As most of you know I will rating this game out 10 based on gameplay and graphics.

Bloodline Champions
Bloodline Champions is a top down arena based game made by Stunlock Studios which is quite new in the MMORPG world and as a first game, I think it will go a long way. Still a developing game introducing a DotA style of gameplay with many characters to unlock. As every game starts, there is always high benefits for paying members but apart from anything, really a great game. As for the graphics character desgins match the scenery which is good as it all comes in together. Bloodline Champions requires true skill in my opinion, as you have about 7 to 9 skills to tactically play. Well not to give away so much but here is the start of my review, as many of you know I will be rating this game out of 10 for gameplay and graphics.

Sword Girls Online
Sword girls online is a strategy card based gametype with the visuals of anime published by Changyou. A very new company to the world of MMO's as of 2011, as a first game it shows some pontential of strategy. The game consists of simulating the gameplay after choosing the cards, as you know the main basis of the cards are all girls. The main attraction is mainly for the anime lovers (That's right I'm talking about you otakus out there). Quite unique as a game because of the wide variety of clans and each card when battling together are stronger. This game resembles much to Urban Rivals where cards are also involved. The game consists of many characters which are cards. Changyou seems to be based around anime style games, whatever the gameplay may be. Anime style games seems to be getting really popular due to the style being unique. Hopefully by reading the whole review, you can make your decision on whether you would like to play this game or not. One more thing that I would like to add is the fact that the company emailed me in order to review, so feel very privileged in reviewing this game very early.
