Legends of Norrath

Is Legends of Norrath™ only available to EverQuest® and EverQuest® II players? The nature of game-play and the reward system heavily appeal to the players of the EQ and EQ II. However, Legends of Norrath is a fun game that can be enjoyed by people of many backgrounds, whether they are EQ and EQII players or not. Download the stand-alone game client.

Can you easily toggle in and out of the card game? It’s as easy as opening and closing your inventory window. You can play this while you are out questing, though you may not want to be playing the LON during more intensive game situations such as a raid.

Will the game affect performance or frame rate on the MMO? Not on higher end machines and on less dynamic hardware the impact is minimal. You may not want to be running the LON client while on the more challenging game situations.

How long does it take to play a game? We design games to play between 10 and 20 minutes. The first time through it will take you longer, but as you become more familiar with your cards abilities and the more powerful card combinations, the game-time will decrease.

Will there be promotional or limited edition cards available? Yes we are interested in doing that.

How will broken cards be handled? All trading card games suffer from the occasional imbalanced cards. One of the strengths of online publishing in this genre is that we can errata a card to fix the broken aspects of it universally and no cards will exist that utilize the broken text. That is generally how we handle such situation.

If you adjourn a game can you play against a different opponent? Yes, you can play as many opponents in unfinished games as you like.

Player Spamming is a big problem in MMOs. Is there an ignore function? Yes there is an ignore function.
