The following review is the opinion of the review's author [Jago]
and in no way represents the opinions of this website or its staff.
I have played almost EVERY level-less, roleplaying enforced game on
both www.mudconnector.com and www.topmudsites.com and I can honestly
say that this is the only game I have always come back to. Cybersphere
basically takes place in the year 2030 with a dark future where the
corporations rule with more power than the government ever had.
Gameplay
Cybersphere is full of huge environments and dynamic rooms
that really bring the game to life. There are NPCs that intelligently
react to the situations. Loads of interactivity with objects in the
game environment. Vehicles such as planes, cars.
The battle system is advanced. Full of modifiers and other factors
that effect the outcome of the fight. Of course, one can take choice
of an array of weapons such as guns, knifes, swords, etc, etc etc.. as
well as many unarmed styles.
Roleplaying
The roleplaying is very extensive. You almost naturally fall into
the theme of the game by default. There are several types of core
players you can be, which effect your rp experience overall... But
unlike many other games, you can be pretty much anything. It just
takes time and effort. The admins are always watching and try to make
experiences for all character types fun.
Weaknesses
The only real problem I have with the game is its lack of
size. There are probably 30 players online MAX a day, which is good.
But personally, I like large games. I think the game would be alot
more dynamic if it had 50+ players online. CS has a large player base,
but if there are never more than 30 players on at a time, on a good
day, than it tends to restrict the rp a bit.
Overall
If you are looking for great, strict rp, with a friendly
helpful staff, try Cybersphere. Many people may be turned off because
the rp requirements tend to be strict if you want the best experience,
but you can always make a standard character or a lower level just to
get the gist of the game.
