Game Description and Comments

Kingdom of Loathing is a free online RPG loaded with wit and sarcasm instead of amazing graphics (as can be seen by the lack of colorful screenshots this week). In fact most of the graphics that you see will be of the stick figure variety. This actually adds to the humor of the game. KoL is played directly through your browser so you can be playing in just seconds after signing up and then logging in.

Before you even create your character you will see plenty of satire because the game’s story and character creature feature are on the same page where you sign up at. KoL’s storyline pokes fun at generic storylines with such lines as “One fateful Porktober morning a Sorceress came to the Kingdom. A Naughty Sorceress. A Naughty Sorceress who was clearly up to no good and even more clearly up to plenty of bad.” The satire continues with character creation as normal RPG classes are injected with a heavy dose of humor. For example a Necromancer is called a Pastamancer and a Warrior is known as a Seal Clubber. Even being able to chat requires you to go to the “Altar of Literacy”. Along with Hobo Wars Kingdom of Loathing is one of the funniest and wackiest free online games that you will ever play.

Comment: Amazing game that I highly recommend. I’ve been playing for about 1 and a half years and have no complaints. Plus new content is being added constantly. There is a lot to explore and the text in battles are hilarious…Especially the Final Ultimate Epic Final Conflict.

  1. Very different from other RPGs I’ve seen, and the graphics look kind of playful since it looks like hand-drawn art. Even character classes are kind of silly, but in a good way, featuring stickman-styled characters and wacky classes like seal clubber, turtle tamer, pastamancer, sauceror, disco bandit, and accordion thief. Overall, I’d rate this game a 4/5; game seems to have a good sense of humor.
