I played it for a day without knowing anything about it, but I loved it right away. The majority of people were nice.
Download and Install this game. It is very addictive. Once you get the hang of the rules, you flow along very easily. I assure you. The only challenging part to this game is lvling. It isn't hard to lvl from levels 1~3... Read Full Review

Charming and Addictive at first, until you realize it's totally pointless.
Maplestory can be explained in 1 word: GRINDFEST. The point in the game is to rapidly press ctrl against an enemy until it dies. Do this continuously until you lvl up. Once you lvl up, you can get new abilities,weapons, ... Read Full Review

Engaging concept with an economic problem.
I have been playing Maplestory between on and off periods since 2007, of which I rejoined 3 times since and have played consecutively for about 2 months each time prior to currently playing, which has been about three we... Read Full Review

Really amazing game IMO
I tend to disagree with about 99% of the reviews here and let me tell you why. While most of you have just pure hatred/resentment towards a game you think is "Childish" or "pointless" OR just a "Grindfest" you just want ... Read Full Review

The best 2d mmo becomes childish garbage (R.I.P{2005-to future})
Maplestory has gone a long way from Koreans introducing the game to Americans and expanding internationally. As a level 200 Archer I find that Maplestory is changing from awesome to garbage slowly years by years. If old ... Read Full Review

After a few big changes Maplestory has evolved into a very different game. Too bad the core design is bad,and gets worse
I have played Maplestory on and off for about 10 years now and I must say, since the "Big Bang" patch, Maplestory is much more friendly to new players, unfortunately being friendly doesn't also mean being accessible. ... Read Full Review

Back in 2005, it was amazing - Today its boring, broken and needs to step aside for something better.
MapleStory is a sidescrolling platform MMo, nothing really more needs to be said about that part. You can highly customize your character if you have plenty of NX and are lucky enough to get some stupidly rare drops, th... Read Full Review

Lots of grinding. More of an online-dating/chatting sort of game. Can easily train + chat unlike many other 3D MMORPGs.
This is a 2D MMORPG with beautiful graphics and sounds. Being 2D, its simple interface allows players to easily grind on monsters while chatting a completely different topic than in-game. With the coupling (marrying) sys... Read Full Review
