Thundercall
Thundercall is a pretty fun casual MMORPG that will definitely appeal to casual MMO players from all age ranges. In this game, you’ll need to grow your hero’s abilities and powers, along with your team of pets, your goddess companion and your mount. Hop into the many challenging dungeons and fight against powerful foes in hopes of getting equipments, upgrade materials, in-game cash and of course, free experience in return. Put your team to the test by pitting them against other players in an exciting 1-on-1 arena match. There are many events and freebies that you can get your hands on too.Although it features a rather generic storyline of demons versus goddesses, and a no-so-unique art style, the game allows you to be more in control of your character. There are simply so many dungeons, arenas and events that you can enjoy while you do your best to improve your character’s battle rating. It does feel more like an actual RPG than the other similar games out there. If you enjoy playing a casual MMORPG that’s special in this aspect, you should definitely check out Thundercall.
Torchlight
Torchlight is a fun dungeon crawling game that features an epic storyline, thrilling action and a loyal pet companion, which you can customize, to boot! Assemble a team of three heroes and descend into the monsters-filled caverns below the town in search of the valuable and rare ore, Ember, as well as plenty of riches and glory. You can even take a breather in between all the monster slaying to head off to a fishing pool and go fishing. The fishes you get are surprisingly powerful though - they can be fed to your loyal companion and turn it into powerful battle allies rather than just being a pack mule.Like most dungeon crawlers, randomization is key to the gameplay, giving players a fresh new experience everytime they replay the game, but of course, mod support also gives the game an even longer lifespan. To faciliate this replayability, the game even has a retirement system in place which allow you to pass down prized equipment to your new heroes as you "retire" the old one.
Torchlight may not have enjoyed a following that's large as Diablo, but the game has its own group of loyal fans and hardcore players who still play the game. The game itself feels so much more lighthearted than the dark demonic tones of the latter and is perfect for players who enjoy dungeon crawlers but dislike being scared silly by grotesque creatures of hell.
