    An exciting Minecraftish/d&d type game that has the best of both worlds. The best part is creating your character and graduating in your class. I see a lot of potential in this game.

    The game is very addictive. Just played 1 hour and I am already adicted to the game. To be honest this is my first MMO game, and I wasnt quite sure if I should get it or not. It was free so I got it. One of the best decisions about games that I have ever done in my life. There are 14 classes to chooce, you can perzonalicate your character and build stuff. I highly recommend this game to anyone.

    Seeing the negative reviews on this game is ridiculous. This game is absolutely amazing. It's a nice blend of minecraft and world of warcraft.

    I spent my first few days fumbling around wondering how I could get cool items, but I soon discovered the marketplace. The marketplace is in the bottom of the options menu on the left so it is easy to miss it or think it is unimportant. However,    Seeing the negative reviews on this game is ridiculous.

    I spent my first few days fumbling around wondering how I could get cool items, but I soon discovered the marketplace. The marketplace is in the bottom of the options menu on the left so it is easy to miss it or think it is unimportant. However, if anyone tells you this game is "pay to win," they may have missed the marketplace button. This game is not "pay to win," "pay to succeed," or "pay to play." Personally I've done quite well on the marketplace and this allows you to purchase the high ticket items you'll see the top players using.

    You do not lose anything by downloading this free game however there are two problems that I wish I could change. #1 The chat. The open chat on this game has filters for profanity but no filter for spam or scams. There needs to be a feature where players can vote to ban a player from the chat. #2 Server lag. Honestly, everyone should expect this when playing any MMO. There simply is just too much that can happen at once. Not only are there AI enemies, shops, and allies but everyone has access at all times to bombs. If you've ever set off a large amount of tnt in minecraft just think about everyone in your server being able to set off their own tnt simultaneously.

    Any other complaints about this game are null and void. Ignore them and try this game for free today.    … Expand

    This game is near perfection, you can easyly play for free. The only flaw is that you still can get better stuff and skins by buying them.

    The core problem Trove suffers from is that Minecraft doesn’t work as an MMO. Minecraft is an open world survival game that inspires its players to create huge structures and towns. It was never the gameplay that got people hooked, it was the stories about what they created. Trove limits this ability severely, leaving players with a shallow and characterless MMO that quickly becomes boring after just a few hours. Even if players were to invest money into the game, Trove still has nothing of substance to offer except cosmetics and progress fasteners. Stay away from this greedy cash cow, MMO players deserve better.

    Played in long sessions, Trove can quickly grow mind-numbingly dull and repetitive, and its performance issues can sometimes be a pain. But played in short sessions, it's a decently fun way to pass the time, either by building structures, battling bad guys, or experimenting with new classes.

    Great in short bursts, maybe an hour, as you can have fun and make a little progress, complete a challenge, and see your experience progress. Maybe two at a push to run some Shadow Tower, or work on the Club World. But those meaty, satisfying online experiences need a heavyweight MMO to deliver them and, for all its colourful charm, Trove just isn’t it.
