When MDIAG! first saw footage of this pre-teen MMO, we were fondly reminded of the days when Phantasy Star Online for the Dreamcast dominated our bachelor lives. But since it’s aimed at kids, it can’t be any good, right?
Wrong. FusionFall, which combines the characters of Cartoon Network past and present, has been garnering praise from blogs and publications everywhere. The latest comes from Variety, which mentions the platforming elements of gameplay and amount of free content as standouts.
With SOE’s Free Realms around the corner, the market is ripe for free-to-play, browser-based MMOs aimed at kids. Just proceed with caution, parents – we don’t need a WoW-like epidemic on our hands.
