RuneScape

This game is really good especially as something to do while watching stuff. The skilling is afk friendly which is nice most of the time. This is my goto for idle skilling. If I want tediousness I’ll play OSRS. Subscribing gets works for both games on one account which is great. I enjoy them both. Anyway Runescape is a pretty unique MMO and I definitely suggest trying it. You can play a nice chunk if the game for free. The game can be pay to win if you play on a standard account. I HIGHLY suggest playing ironman on this version of the game. With the smithing and mining rework it’s a lot easier to self sustain in this version than it is in OSRS. Anyway definitely give it a shot. Lately the mobile app has been being very odd. It will overheat my phone really bad even if I have the framerate on 35. It will overheat and then crash. Not sure what’s going on but I’ve never had that issue until the latest update. The audio also gets stuttery which is a new issue too. Not sure if it’s crashing because it’s overheating my phone or if it’s a memory leak issue or what. Hopefully it’s fixed soon.

The game is fantastic. Mobile experience is great as well but… there is a lack of screen customization. Mobile is very cramped. And unfortunately there are not enough screen buttons for all necessary abilities. I believe you are given only 7 or 8 slots on each side. A couple prayers, + defensives, food, restore, shield and weapon for quick switches. And you easily run out of buttons on your screen. There is room for more buttons!!! Mobile players are at a huge disadvantage in bossing because we can’t macro our abilities to a keyboard. This you really really really need to add more buttons that we can drop abilities/items to on our screen for bossing. There is plenty of room!!!!! And even better just add a plus 1 button feature and let the player drag it anywhere on the screen and lock it. So he or she can add as many buttons as they want and wherever they need on their screen. Yay I can now have all my prayers, my freedom, shield, reso, weapon switch for nex, my food, my super restore, and yay room for a couple thresholds so I don’t have to be a full revo noob. And maybe room for a switch. Wow! I can finally play almost, and barely like a pc player. Until then. I can’t do jack crap on mobile for hard bosses. Huge let down.

This game is fantastic. The free experience offers hundreds of hours of content, and opting into the membership will expand that to thousands of hours. There’s a wide variety of things to do, from quests to boss fights, and over 25 skills to train. Most of it offers players the freedom to engage as much or as little as they want, with obvious benefits to those who choose a more active approach. Progression feels incredibly rewarding and is the main reason I’ve stuck around with this game for so long. The main problems come from the fact that this is originally a PC experience that’s been transferred to mobile. It’s a point-and-click style of game, which sounds great in theory. However precision is quite difficult on a mobile device, especially on my phone which is fairly small. The UI is complex on the PC experience, and transferring that to mobile was done about as well as you could hope; but it still isn’t perfect. Many of the buttons are quite small, although this would likely be dependent on the size of your mobile device. But from my experience, I often find myself clicking on the wrong things accidentally, which is a minor annoyance. Overall I’d recommend this game to everyone, but the mobile experience has some clear limitations. Unless you’ve got a big phone or tiny fingers, I’d suggest doing some of the simpler content on mobile, and move to a computer for anything that requires complex and precise inputs.
