Review
Rise of Immortals is a Free to Play MMO based around the popular ‘Aeon of Strife’ gaming genre, which includes games like Defence of the Ancients (DotA), Heroes of Newerth (HoN) and League of Legends (LoL). In essence, you’ll be given a choice from one of twelve Immortals, and asked to team up with other players to defeat teams composed of enemy players and/or AI opponents.
Rise of Immortals offers several different modes, including 2v2, 3v3, 5v5 and 3 PVE. In 3 PVE (Player vs. Environment) you are placed with two other players and must work together to defeat enemy minions. Doing so will allow you to gain experience and gold that can be used to purchase upgrades, attack enemy AI Immortals, defend your base and, ultimately, destroy your enemies. In, 2v2, 3v3 or 5v5, your goals are the same; however, instead of AI opponents you be matched against enemy players.
Unlike other MOBA’s, Rise of Immortals has a certain casual playstyle to it, which offers it a unique advantage over other hardcore titles in the genre. While playing I was able to pick the game up quickly, which meant I didn’t have to spend two days playing against the AI before I could step into the arena with actual players. And the community, though only small, is a vibrant and friendly place. I was amazed at all the help other players gave me, offering advice on which upgrades, Immortals and attack paths I should choose.
As with most other titles in this genre, you can purchase upgrades which help assist you in defeating your enemies and defending your base. These items increase attack damage, critical strike chance, mana, health and armour, and also potions, which help to get you out of sticky situation and back home to heal.
These items are purchased with gold that is earned from slaying enemies on the battlefield. Choosing the right items for your style of play can be difficult at first, so there are many recommended items that are displayed at the top of the shop menu. After getting to know where your weaknesses lay, you can increase those areas and take full advantage of your Immortals strengths, and each Immortal has a unique реrk branch on thеir skill trее which allows you to customize your Immortal even further.
Rise of Immortals also features a ‘cash store’ where you are able to buy new skins for your characters, and new Immortals to better suit your preferences. Most of these purchases simply offer small aesthetic changes to look of your Immortals; however, there are some which really stood out from the pack, such as the Michael Jackson skin for Netheurgist, which was very tempting to buy, and the Grim Reaper skin for Lazarus, which I did buy.
On the negative side, I did find some balance issues between some of the Immortals which, in certain situations, let to some very frustrating events. Aislynn and Ichorr, for example, are described as ‘support tanks’, though in reality they often fill a much larger role (read: they kill you so quickly that you’ll be afraid to ever leave your base again).
In summary, Rise of Immortals is a great Free to Play game, and it a much needed addition to the genre. Too often in the MOBA genre are casual players left out of the mix, and it’s nice to see a game that caters to a less competitive audience. Sadly, balance issues with some of the Immortals do need attention, and the matchmaking system is less than perfect, but the friendly community and ‘casual’ atmosphere make it a must-play for those new to the genre and looking for their start.
