WEBMMO’s free-to-play, browser based, online game Lords of Evil has just entered the open beta phase. This Flash based game allows players to interact with others and build up a massive empire. The only downside is that closed beta players’ empires’ data and statistics have been reset, so veterans are on the same level as newcomers. Veteran players do get to keep items earned during the closed beta, so I suppose it isn’t a total wash for them.

I was a bit disappointed with Lords of Evil. I was hoping for more of a standard, mmorpg. Instead, its a city/castle management simulation. You build an empire, try to accomplish tasks, become stronger than others and then take over. I was also disappointed in the character selection. I assumed once you picked a class (human/orc/demon), you’d be able to further customize your character. Instead, you retain the same static image.

If you like kingdom management/building simulations, then you may really enjoy Lords of Evil. Especially since its free and doesn’t require you to download anything. Other players may find it a bit tedious, since so much time is required to really build up an empire. If you’re interested, it only takes a minute to make an account and give it a try. Plus, it has a tutorial that guides you through the first few steps of the game.
