Role playing games invite everybody to assume their secret identities and fight evil.
With school in full swing and the days getting shorter, kids are starting to think about donning costumes and trick-or-treating. The spirit of Halloween lends itself to disguise and make-believe, and fantasy has taken on a whole new meaning with the explosion of MMORPG, or Massively Multi-player Online Role Play Gaming.
These games combine all the engagement of classic role playing like Dungeons and Dragons, but the way the CGI graphics, narrative, and gameplay have evolved, the adventure is all that much more convincing. Plus, the fundamentals of these games goes from very basic to very complex, so now kids in a broader age range can assume an avatar, customize their attributes, and go on a continued journey with their friends. The MMORPG genre has captured kids’ attention because it offers some unique features that allow players to flex some different gaming muscles.
- Evolving real-time world. The architecture of these games is far more open, and the challenge is that they are always changing; no two scenarios are ever the same and so the novelty keeps players coming back for more. With the proliferation of 3D imaging, the spaces are much more expansive open and the maps are more elaborate.
- Play with a couple thousand of your closest friends. These games can actually handle hundreds and sometimes thousands of online players simultaneously. This adds a level of chaos, excitement, and difficulty to the objective, requiring coordination with allies and organized attacks on enemies. Each game is a fascinating social experiment where players form allegiances and take risks.
- Becoming a character is easier than putting on a costume. There is really no end of personas a gamer can inhabit in this virtual world. Weapons, tools, fighting moves, and even personality traits can all be mixed and matched into imaginative combinations.
- Creativity. The level of interactivity and customization players experience in MMORPG encourages displays of uniqueness. Some sci-fi, horror, and simulation games let players design their own quests to challenge their adversaries. In other words, the interplay between characters and the space itself invites experimentation.
- Curiosity. Because these worlds are so endlessly malleable, there is a high level of unpredictability that keeps players interested. With precision shooters or platformers, the movements are often limited and become rote, but with fighter simulations, there are always novel factors that influence the outcome.
While the game world is indeed every-changing, the wildly popular School of Chaos is the perfect blend of zombie attack, online team playing, block-style camp, and heart-pounding action. Set in a high-drama story where a high school has been overrun by the living dead, this app from VNL Entertainment allows gamers to form clans, wage war, buy houses, and even throw parties. Players can buy their own islands, with the ability to build, and then invite friends over. Loaded with weapons, upgrades, and real-time economics, the simulation throws 30 different fighting moves in with over five billion character customizations, so the action is always unexpected and exciting.
As Halloween draws closer, the urge toward superhero zombie slaying is irresistible for School of Chaos fans. Now that the app is enabled for Intel® Atom™ processor-based tablets for Android, kids and grownups alike can jump into the mayhem, joining their friends, and saving the day. Perfect for this time of year, special seasonal items are also featured, including Halloween ones that just happen to be on sale now too.
