It has alot of personal nostalgia value for us as well. One of the things I love about MMO's is the memories of all the people over the years. I haven't looked at this game at all, but from the name I am assuming it is going to be no monthly fee? I am guessing they have alot of alternative ideas on how to make money from it. It should be interesting to see if this changes the landscape of future MMOage. Thanks, it took quite awhile to merge Ferrel’s site concept and my limited graphics abilities into a quality image.

After being in the beta for a few days now the only thing I have not tried is the card game. Those pesky minigames are a definite hook for anyone who likes Tetris, Bejeweled or Peggle. Nice job on the masthead btw, with a change or two it's a reminder of my own MMO journies :) Great review and I agree with your assessment of the game!

Basically your cards have a cost, an attack value and a defense value. They also have abilities and modifiers. There is a random element to it too as well as some interesting trap cards and the like.

I'm definitely looking forward to Free Realms now, after reading your review as well as Cuppycake's and Tipa's. About the card battle system...is it a similar system to MTG? Creature cards with power and toughness, mana, spell cards, and the like? I haven't played Wizard 101 or any other games with in-game card games, so I'm not really sure how they work in the MMO world. Any insight there? Great review!
