Massively multiplayer online role-playing games. Not my own particular area of expertise,
as it happens. I understand they must be massive, involve multiple people and quite often some
kind of crazy made up world. Except ShadowCities, which has just hit the UK on the iPhone, and
is based around your immediate location. You’re tasked with building up your magical experience
and becoming part of a team of the other players around you. The cool thing is that you can
see on the map that the local roads are mapped, and if you pull up to the cloud view, you
can see further afield. As a mere beginner, I’ve spent most of my time capturing spirits
and absorbing their power. There’s numerous different colours to collect, and each brings
you something different. You can see the missions you need to complete in this tab, as well
as ways of getting extra points, such as connecting Facebook and inviting friends. It’s completely
free, and about one million miles away from Angry Birds. If that’s your cup of tea,
get on it pronto.
