Cronous

Cronous or Cronous: The Shadow of Conspiracy is an action MMORPG based on the regular level system combined with a unique skill system. A player attacks monsters and accumulates experience by solving a high number of quests. Accumulated experience is reflected in the player’s level and he can use a special item according to the level, or he can use skills at that certain level. Also he can use various skills by his own special combination.

Battles and Magic

Lizard Interactive made various effects to create a dynamic battle experience and various kinds of magic to emphasize the fantasy world of this role playing game. You can experience 3D sound which varies according to the distance & direction of the character’s animation which changes depending on the weapon. Also creative Level Design & various types of magic and monsters’ dynamic Al will make the battle more dynamic.

Payment

As of now it is a free game. Though it is free, there is an ingame item shop where players may buy rare items using credits of real-life money.

Story and Variability

Cronous has 100 types of quests. Many must be resolved, but a good deal of them are optional. Also there are some quests that are hidden. A player can meet hidden stories by solving various quests one by one. Some quests will show whole different results according to a player’s action. A player can meet the changing world which varies according to her/his own action in the world of Cronous. This type of gameplay is similar to Shadowbane.

Growth Items

There are growth items in Cronous. As a player grows up, these special items increase her/his ability and level up just as the character does. A growth item will have a different tendency according to a player’s class.

• Notes

-Growth Weapons can be obtained by killing "Death" level monsters or Boss monsters -They are obtained at level 1

Growth Weapons have an ability to be transformed to aid the character in Combat by Exponentially increasing their stats for 1 hour only, and the recovery time for a Growth weapon to be Transformed again (X- Form) is 24 hours. In order to Create a Growth Weapon to be transformable you must first level a Growth Weapon to 30, once you have done this , you must level another Growth Weapon of the same type to level 30, but carefully not filling its experience completely unless it is the Growth Weapon that you wish to have combined. They can be combined at any Growth Spring. if you succeed you will now have a "Perfect Growth Item" that can be transformed . These must be combined at every 5 level inerval until level 50
