About this game

Step into Esperia, a fantasy world full of magic—a lone seed of life meandering among the sea of stars. And on Esperia, it took root. As the river of time flowed, the once all-powerful gods fell. As the seed grew, each branch sprouted leaves, which became the races of Esperia.

You will play as the legendary mage Merlin and experience strategically tactical battles. It's time to dive into an unexplored world and embark on a journey to unlock a hidden mystery together with the heroes of Esperia.

ANYWHERE YOU GO, MAGIC FOLLOWS.
Remember, only you can guide heroes to pull the sword from the stone and learn the truth about the world.

The story is entertaining and the characters is interesting, the voice acting is great, tho there's some who feels like they've got no effort (mostly a minor character and npc), this season story got me hooked up and the music is fire. Getting a heroes and resources is so easy, no need to do extreme grinding, even for a new player. Cosmetic is varied and unique, and there's a ton of activity to do in this game, tho I hope Merlin can get more personality, they often feels so passive

Used to play this game a while ago and just decided to redownload it again. It's really fun and you can roam around freely with great animations and roleplaying. Not to mention you don't need to grind so hard to achieve a new character the game gives you enough to balance between the focus on the story and the side hustles.

Highly recommend. Maybe its not appropriate, but this game is straight up upgrade of AFK Arena. It feels so good! Graphics, characters models, mechanics and gameplay, all is great! But, probably, would like to see some more new players friendly event, as anniversary one is extremely hard for players that are only rolling into the game. And also would like to see more lore, both about the characters themselves and about the world itself, the last one feels kinda lacking
