Norroth Online is a tile-based fantasy MMORPG from the Norroth team. It uses turn-based battles and a shared persistent world built from handcrafted towns, wilderness areas, caves, islands and dungeons. The browser version is already playable while the updated PC edition is being tested ahead of its Steam launch.
Progress is split between adventuring and production. Players gather resources, learn professions, craft equipment, trade with one another and improve a personal home. Guilds can work toward their own settlement, while shipbuilding opens routes to islands beyond the mainland.
This is aimed at players who enjoy slower, menu-driven MMORPGs and long-term character development more than reflex combat. The visual presentation is deliberately old-fashioned, and the current version remains in closed live testing, so features and balance may still change before release.
