The following review is the opinion of the review's author [Narmacil Alcarin]
and in no way represents the opinions of this website or its staff.
I'm not going to go into detail over the gameplay; the other reviews
have pretty much covered everything there is to know. Instead this
is more of an opinion of KotL.
For the past 8 years I'm played steadly on another mud, in that time
I've tried different places but after a month or so the game became
boring and I'd go back to playing my original more heavily. Until
I started playing KotL.
At first I must admit it was a bit tough because there is a certain
group of older players who are quite cliquish and can be rude to
newbies at times, however they are in the minority and it shouldn't
put people off this great game.
That being my only gripe I like that the game can appeal to different
player types. Pk'ers, Rp'ers, loners, each type can find many hours
of enjoyment on KotL. The game is interesting and varied enough that
there almost always something you can be doing.
I think the best part of KotL is the staff. It's very rare where
I've seen such an active staff base before. They are constantly
playing, interacting and developing the mud in order to make it
better. Additions, bug fixes are constatly taking place. Truly the
best imm staff I've seen.
KotL might not be for everyone, but for me it's my new mudding home.
