Description and Comments
Hobo Wars is a
free online RPG with an attitude. As you can tell
by the screenshot below, Hobo Wars is mostly
text-based but does have humorous graphics that
describe the different areas of the game. In an
interesting twist, some areas of the game are
actually real-life retail chains such as Wal-mart
and Toys'R'Us.
You play as a
hobo that explores cities doing various
activities such as begging, gambling, and
fighting. You gain experience by begging and
fighting. You also need to stay "awake".
One of the main ways to stay "awake" is
by buying food at the aforementioned Wal-mart.
Hobo Wars is
currently on the Top
10 Online Games list as ranked by
GameOgre.com Review Members. Humor and originality
have allowed the game to break into the Top Ten.
HBW is also on GameOgre.com's Top
10 Online RPG list.

Comment: With tongue planted firmly in cheek, Hobo
Wars delivers a very fun gaming experience. I get
tired of all the poor versions of RuneScape and
EverQuest. It is good to see a game that tries to
something different for a change.

Comment: Hobo Wars is cool and fun but it's a text
game. I normally like 3-D game on the Xbox and
PS2, but Hobo Wars is still awesome.
