As I have introduced a few months before, Funtasy Online is a new 3D anime-styled MMORPG developed by Taiwanese studio, Lager Network Technologies. The studio is well-known in the Chinese gaming industry for being the developer of King of Kings 1, 2 and 3. King of Kings 3 will be available in English very soon. Funtasy Online even garnered the attention of famous Japanese gaming magazine, Game Watch. Below is a brief storyline on Funtasy Online.
The story happened 100 years after Snow White and the Seven Dwarves defeated “That Person” and Thumbelina lived happily with the One-Inch Wizard. A sudden change rocked the whole Rainbow World, the continent of Mysteria. Monsters started getting bolder and more violent and a group of adventurers, consisting of Humans, Dwarves and Elves, started training 8 different set of weapons and skills to defend themselves. What is causing the monsters to go berserk?
Here are some features of the game:
1. No fixed classes, players learn skills according to what weapon (out of 8 choices) they equip.
