Zenonia 5 vs Zenonia S: Rifts in Time
Zenonia 5
Zenonia 5 is an anime action RPG and the most recent sequel to the main Zenonia series. Although the game offers a lot more of the same things (controls and gameplay), it does provide players with a fresh new selection of classes and characters, namely Abel the Berserker, Neal the Wizard, Ryan the Paladin and Evan the Gunslinger, along with a brand new storyline. Due to the use of specific named characters, you'll have limited options when it comes to character customization.It seems like Gamevil leanred their lesson from Zenonia 4, allowing Zenonia 5 to be a much better version. They have even polished up all the typos and mispellings that litter the previous game. So, if you really want to try Zenonia, then Zenonia 5 is perhaps a great game to start the series with.
Zenonia S: Rifts in Time
Zenonia S: Rifts in Time is an anime-inspired MMORPG title - the first of its kind - within the Zenonia game series. Apparently, Gamevil has given up adding numbers to their single-player Zenonia series and have created something of a spin-off MMO. Regardless of the major shift from single to multiplayer, the game still retains the charm that has rocketed the series to fame in the first place - it's Legend of Zelda-like experience albeit in a more anime format.Being an MMO now, the game provids players with an online hub of sorts - a virtual town - to interact with each other and with various helpful NPCs including quest givers and PvP arena ringmasters. The game also features the usual hack-and-slash combat system, many character classes and pretty graphics.
Although it's nice that the game's now a multiplayer game, we feel like the game has not really made the most of its multiplayer function and had restricted itself in terms of the features that are available. Not to mention, having a great storyline has never been this series' storng suit and this weakness is very evident in this game.
All in all though, if you've always wanted to try an MMO version of Zenonia, this game definitely fit the bill in spite of some of its downsides. After all, it's a free game. So, download it today on your mobile devices and give it a try!
