Version: Lands of Hope 3.6
"Best MMORPG I Have Seen in 10 Years..."
Pros: Ok, it's one thing to say that a game is this, or that, but let's put things into perspective. This is a browser-based MMORPG, which has a Graphical User Interface aka GUI, which puts most downloadable clients to shame. And, to compare Lands of Hope to any other browser-based game is an insult.
Words cannot describe how much I, and others, enjoy this game. I have been dedicated, and addicted, for about 2 years, now. I'm amazed at the character depth, and everyday I seem to like the game more, and more.
What makes this game truly unique is the relationship between the players, and the staff. There is an idea message board where players can suggest, and discuss, different ideas about what they would like to see in the game. The world is crafted based on the ideas of both the staff, and the players, which creates a unique, fair, and balanced game. New features are implemented almost on a daily basis, and the game never gets boring (can the same be said for most store bought games?).
The only thing lacking is more people. We have a solid playerbase, and a strong community, made of people that want to do what they can to help new players, and want to make the game enjoyable, for everyone.
Also, there are two servers, so those who want Player vs. Player interaction are able to do so, while the other server offers a friendly enviroment for the less agressive players.
All I can say is that you have to give this game a shot. You will not regret it one bit. I can promise you that the game features are like no other browser-based MMORPG you have ever seen.
Take 10 minutes of your time. Try the game, ask questions, listen to advice, and create a unique character, in an ever expanding world of fantasy. You will not be disappointed.

"One of the best browser based MMORPG ever created!"
Pros: Player base is very friendly, helpful and chatty. GM is very active, listens to suggestions seriously and churns out updates frequently. Extremely addictive game with pets that fight by your side and the ability to make choices and which path you want your character to grow into.
Cons: It has a rather steep learning curve, but the players and GM is more then willing to help you out with it. Trust me, its worth the effort to learn the game.

Version: Lands of Hope 3.6
"A great 2D game that has so much you can do"
Pros: Lots of skills to raise, Lots of quests, Lots of freedom to explore, Lots of interesting people to talk to, Good support / help in the chatroom, You get to talk to the creator to make suggestions and give feedback, Many interesting Lands to explore, The amount of things you can do is just huge! There is never "nothing to do", Lands of Hope is always being added to so there is always something new to look forward to, and you can even suggest things to implement and if they're interesting enough possibly see them in the game!, not to mention the community (small at the moment but still growing every day) is quite friendly and helpful!
Cons: Not enough people have heard of Lands of Hope yet so the crowds can be small at times, but give it a try and you'll find it quite thrilling

Version: Lands of Hope 3.6
"I love this game soo much. It has so many options of what to do"
Pros: Everything..
Tons of Skills
Tons of Items
Tons of different proffessions and races
Not 1 character will be the same
You can make up to 5 and possibly more characters
You get to talk to the game maker and he listens to your ideas!!!!
It is constantly being updated everyweek with new pictures and new skillz, proffessions
You can own your own dragon, Spider anything basically you want
Cons: The only con but is not a con to me at all..
Is that it is 2d. And most people who are hooked up on graphics prob wont like that. But Race and Minion pictures are drawn by proffesional artists and are very pretty and orginal.
