Sounds cathartic! I will play Torn.

After playing everyday for a month I would say it has it's moments. But this is no first person shooter. It is a text based game with behind the scenes virtual dice rolls. What is very cool is the slick interface that is browser based, requires no downloads. The dashboard and little icons make it seem very much not a text based game. I guess I would call it a hybrid. They have a little icon for every item and weapon in the game. Even every ammunition type has a different icon. And you can collect a lot of stuff. Most have an effect, but some don't. For example the "plushies." Basically soft fuzzy stuffed animals that you randomly find or buy at a bazaar.

I was surprised many people don't attack or fight at all. You can grow your character into a buisness owner or trader. It is intended as a long term growth. In other words it starts off slow. Too slow for most people looking for a game I think. I don't think the path to being a "flower importer" is cathartic, but some people might.

I like that it works well on a smartphone. Log in, do a few things, kill 10 minutes and log out is how my game goes. Perfect for the bus and uses hardly any data! They have a virtual casino where you only win/lose virtual money! It is fun, even PvP poker.

They have an in game chat and message system. My ID is: deemoneater [1961035]

Dang, I was really hoping it would be a medieval setting.

Speaking of text based RPGs, i've been addicted to this gem here:
