A MIX (multiplayer) compatible
game engine for
Windows operating systems, coded in C and
C variants by Dan Samuel and found at www.synthetic-reality.com. Its primary feature is its customization ability; players can actually create their own games to play on the Well of Souls engine. These are known as 'worlds'.
However, most will find that, although at first the ability to build your own
game is nice, the limitations of the engine make it useless for any attempt at a serious
game. The incessant clicking required in order to accomplish the universal goal of attaining level 100 is, at best, utterly boring. Coupled with an unstable 'hack detection' code that locks players out of the
game for running, among other things, simple WinAMP plugins, the
game quickly becomes unsatisfying and dull. Add to that the fact that you must donate $20 USD in order to unlock the only truly useful features in the
game, and you have something which goes beyond 'worthless'.
