Spyware Warning![en.wikipedia.org]

This game acts as spyware and performs personal data gathering and transmission. It attempts to install the Xigncode3 malware/rootkit into your PC, which cannot be removed cleanly afterwards. This spyware rootkit compromises the integrity of your PC.

Xigncode3 works much like Red Shell. This spyware rootkit monitors and reports on all aspects of your PC as well as your browsing history and online activity, and may include or introduce keyloggers and other remote control tools.

There's no way to opt out and you are forced to agree to a non-enforcable agreement which involves the developer selling your private data and profiling you. This is completely unethical and reprehensible. Gamers must be aware of the dangers of installing this harmful software and should avoid this completely.

Warning: In-Game Cash Shop[en.wikipedia.org]

This game is infested with a toxic mobile app style cash shop. You will be prompted to and expected to give money/credit card details to the developers through this cash shop to buy in-game goods so you can play the game.

"Karos" is not at all free... this "game" costs an insane ONE THOUSAND, THREE HUNDRED AND THIRTY FOUR UNITED STATES DOLLARS. And that's before the toxic cash shop! This Russian spyware infested garbage is an incredibly lame ripoff of World of Warcraft, only infested with P2W mechanics and incredibly toxic paygating. This truly is festering cancer.

What do you do in the game? Pay money to the developers in Russia.

If you want to take this seriously as a game (please don't), it's awful.

Visually, this has some fairly mediocre/dated looking graphics that will understandably be a turn off for a lot of gamers, and it's a big contributor to the failure of the game to attract gamers despite having no up-front cost.

You're forced to sign a highly questionable yet legally unenforceable End User License Agreement... for such a relatively low effort, low quality product, this comes across more as a delusion of grandeur than anything else. This agreement includes questionable requirements that may attempt to revoke consumer law protections that gamers expect to have, which is also highly problematic. Developers must learn they are here to serve gamers, not control them. I had my cat walk over the keyboard while the EULA was displaying, which fixed that problem for me.

This game is ancient, it's over 12 years old... it's heavily dated and isn't going to give you a remotely contemporary gaming experience... another reason for gamers to be hesitant about adding this to their libraries.

On the important matter of pricing and value for gamers, there's a lot going on here with monetisation, so this really shouldn't be considered a truly free product because of that.

This game is infested with mobile app store like microtransactions. This is a consumer hostile model that we don't need to see on PC. It's deceptively priced to gouge gamers, and that's a reason in itself to avoid this.

Even after that, you're expected to pay up $1334 USD to unlock content through DLC purchases. The game should not be considered completely unlocked until you empty your wallet for the developer. This is misleading and predatory pricing on a product falsely marketed as "free".

Bearing in mind that free games don't add +1 to your game collector count, should you bother adding this to your library and downloading it? What's the verdict?

Nope. This is just impossible to recommend to serious gamers. There's no up front price, but I still feel like I got ripped off.

NO GAME SHOULD COST MORE THAN A THOUSAND BUCKS.

Thankyou for your attention to this matter.
