Shakes and Fidget is a free to play animated web browser RPG with asynchronous multiplayer and everything RNG. It is an international web browser and mobile game, so it will be populated with many other players. This game is translated into many languages, so there will be many Non-English reading players. It worked on Win 10, looked ok, sounded ok, played ok, was understandable. It is light on resources used, so it will be runnable on any computer. Has funny quest text and gear descriptions. The artwork is cartoony and funny. Has varied weapon sounds. Has some animation. Has a manual and official wiki in English. Pretty Easy to play. The level cap is 600, but it will take you long time to reach it, very TIME consuming game. (At my current hours, i have a 144 scout and 135 warrior) Quests and other things take an amount of real time to complete or cooldown reset. More time you put into it, the higher you climb on the leaderboard. Mushrooms are the store currency, but you can earn some from quests rewards and gambling. Some gear cost mushrooms, but you might find the same and better later for gold only or quest reward. You can spend mushrooms to skip waiting on timers or add time to questing endurance and the best mount. There is hourglasses that you can buy with gold for skipping the travel time on questing. It has PVP and PVE. It is RNG combat where better stats and gear will give you some edge, but RNG is a fickle goddess, you still can lose to bad rolls. Difference in Level between you and target is a factor of success. You can make 2 characters per accont, picking one of 4 classes ( warrior, mage, scout, assassin). Has an PVP Arena where you have a choice of 3 players to attack for gold, honor and xp. You can raise your all your stats with gold and use potions to temporary improve a stat. Gear you can buy or get from quests can now be modded in the blacksmith shop and in the tavern watercloset. At level 75, you can collect Pets that improve your stats and you can fight other players pets. There are many other things that you can do to improve your stats. It has 31 dungeons you can unlock and raid. Finishing Frost Blood Temple Dungeon, you unlock The Tower which gives you three companions (Mage, Scout, Warrior) to raid with through 15 harder dungeons that unlock with the Tower. You have to outfit your three companions with gear to improve their stats. But ends up having to wait for your level to catch up to the dungeon level. You can make your own fortress, with some buildings that improve your character and other building for protecting your fort or raiding others forts. You can raid other players forts for resources and pour your gold in to defending your fort. There is an Underworld that you can build and other players can raid. It has Guilds and guild wars, where guild members all attack other guilds or defend from other guild's attacks. Guilds have stuff they can build that increases gold and xp gain for guild members. But above level 25 guild upgrades require someone that Buys mushrooms. You can increase your guild level also by completing guild house raids. The 22 plus servers are located in Europe somewhere (Central Europe time zone). Devs keep adding more servers, which pulls active players from the established servers. Leading a guild is easy but hard to get enough active dedicated players to reach the very top of the guild leaderboard. Try it, maybe you might like it. You can play this game for free, and it keeps you busy several hours a day.

★★★★☆ One of the better mobile games ported to Steam. Pokes fun at common MMO motifs. Complete afk-style timed quests that give your chosen hero xp, gear, gold, etc. Join a guild and participate in afk-style guild-vs-guild fights and climb the guild leader board. Compete in auto-attack duels against other players and climb a duel leader board. Overall, winning relies heavily on time gated quests, joining the newest server is advised. Fairly pay to win but still enjoyable as a f2p imo.

I'm not sure if I've ever stopped playing this game. Look at my hours. JUST LOOK AT THEM. All of my friends are concerned and confused. It's taken months for any of them to work up the nerve to even ask me what this game is. "It... must be very good." they all say. WELL, IT ISN'T. THIS GAME IS MEDIOCRE AT BEST. BUT... I CAN'T STOP PLAYING IT. Y e s. I highly recommend this game.

A fun, addictive web browser type game for people who like sense of constant progression towards a irelevant goal, boot the game, select an action, close the game, return later on, you've progressed and/or get something out of said action,rinse and repeat, it rewards you for tedious things but that's not always something bad, it's something i quite enjoy in these games.

*****IF you expect deep insight into the game don't bother, I'm not sure as far as spoilers go in games without stories but minor spoilers included (probably)**** Well first of all I was motivated to write this review(my first) by a promise of 5 mushrooms (in game currency)... (although it did say rate, so maybe I'm mistaken, think I got the mushroms though so I'll be a good sport and write something) *edit* here I would like to say that 5 in game currency is not much and the review is not positive because of this, it is positive because i really like this game hence the 55h+ game time* First glance, I like this game, it's nice, it's casual and it helps me relax (except when it frustrates me, but it doesn't do it often so it's ok, trust me). The main components are questing (gold and exp grinding with a touch of gear drops), the dungeons (challenging oponents that make all the grind worth it), and pvp fights (for honor&glory, with honor determining the position in the rankings, I made up the glory part). There is the guild feature which allows you to socialize with different players and has it's own rewards. At this point I haven't accessed the full features of the game(castle and pets) so I can't say much about them. It's basically every rpg once you passed the main story and have only the grinding part left, except, here you don't have to actually run around the map, find distant areas, kill swarms of monsters, or push a lot of buttons. To keep the spoilers minimal, the initial progress is a bit slow but it gets fun and exciting afterwards. The quests don't require a lot of attention and I like this type of games since they can be played in the background(usually in the mornings when my brain is still booting). The in-game currency can be purchased but it is also obtainable from questing and other sources so it doesn't make such an great impact. I don't believe this to be an play for free but pay to win type of game since paying will mostly just speed things up but will not give you unbelievable boosts, and I don't feel like I'm missing out on alot for not paying (although maybe you should ask me on that in a few weeks from now when i get to levels where waiting is frustrating). As for that, quests have time durations and you can basically sit back and fiddle your fingers while the time doesn't run out. So if you are impatient types maybe this game is not for you. Battles are instantanious and while you do not actively participate i found the waiting and anticipation thrilling, especially when you are on your death door and hope the next hit will be a crit for win... I do not have a lot of negative stuff to say, because the concept of the game is simple enough and at this point it has not let me down, I'm looking forward to the new stuff and features (level unlockable) and hope it will not let me down. Maybe a background story would be nice but then again I'm grinding clicker heroes so what do I know. I am not a Chinese robot paid to write this review Also I'll probably regret not reading it before posting, but the bed awaits and to parafraze what a "wise" man i know once told me, sleep is good!
