Dragonica The Cutest MMORPG to hit the market!



Dragonica.
Anyone heard of this game before? If not, read on! If yes, well.. read on too if you want a free balloon to go with your dragonica character!

What is Dragonica you ask. Let us refer to wikipedia for this


Dragonica is a 3D-action side-scrolling MMORPG (massively multiplayer online role-playing game) by Barunson Interactive. Development has been ongoing since March 2006.[1] Like many online games, operation of Dragonica is relegated to different publishers for their respective regions. It is a free-to-play game with a cash shop.[4]
There you go :D



What makes this game different though is a better question. Instead of the normal maple story thingy you see. this is a game which has characters with larger than life heads and cute body. The moveset attack for the characters are also a pun on other games and are created to be cute, funny and totally unrealistic. Case in point, when the assassin sneaks around, it hide inself in a box and move around crawling metal gear stlye. :D

There are 4 type of classes available for choice. Each class will then split into two additional classes which will then evolve into 3 other class! Then there are apparently a secret path to another class for each class type! Meh! Here, check the graph for a better explanation

 
Warrior: As trained combatants, Warriors are similar to the Thieves in damage rate, but sacrifice a little speed in place of sheer physical hardiness.
  • Knight: Armored Tanker class with high Defense and plenty of Equips; 1-handed sword and shield
  • Gladiator: Max DPS (damage per second) fighter with high AoE skills; huge 2-handed swords

Magician: The scholarly Magician is the lowest in Vitality but high in Intelligence (spell points) and has quite balanced damage-power and speed despite their physical fragility.
  • Acolyte: Well-rounded range of spells including attacks and Group Heal; restricted to ranged attacks using Mage Staffs
  • Wizard: Specialized assault sorcerer with high DPS and weaker healing abilities; Spear-staff with limited melee attacks

Archer: The Archer, being used to trekking through the wilderness, is quite well-rounded in terms of stats-distribution; not the strongest, but doesn’t have any noticeable weak spots.
  • Hunter: Skills-heavy children-of-nature with "Summoning" Skill attacks; Longbow specialist
  • Ranger: Highly-trained military troops with fastest firing rate around; wields crossbow

Thief: Thieves, who dart through their urban environment as the fastest class, have the power necessary for street brawls but lower Intelligence (ouch) because they don't require that much mana.
  • Jester: Flashy AoE brawler with wide range of attack Skills; upgraded Thief claw and shield (in CBT)
  • Assassin: Poison-wielding subterfuge class with Burrow-attack; holds Katar blade

Graphically wise, its a 3d background side scrolling with a 2d character. Very cute, very unorthodox.
The thing is, the whole game is yet to be launched. Its still in closed-beta and will only be open for open beta in 2 weeks time? Ah well, at least I got the closed beta key! I am gonna go in tonight if possible and grab a couple of screeny. For now though, you guyz would have to make do with the gameplay video available at over HERE
