It downloads and installs within seconds so it isn’t much of an inconvenience. In order to launch FusionFall, players will need to install something called the Unity Engine which is a sort of browser plugin. Cartoon Network has since released a major update that made the entire game free to play. Like in Wizard101, another game geared towards kids, only the first few areas of the game were originally accessible to free users, playing through the rest required a monthly subscription. All the major Cartoon Network characters including the cast of Dexter’s Lab, The Powerpuff Girls, Samurai Jack, and Code Name: Kids Next Door make an appearance in FusionFall, with voice acting included! Unfortunately, this kind of production value doesn’t come free. The game contains a huge persistent world with great graphics, music, and depth that it puts to shame many client games that require a large download.
FusionFall is a great achievement considering it runs on a web browser. The game was announced several years ago but has suffered several delays and was finally released in mid January 2009. FusionFall is the new browser based MMORPG developed by Cartoon Network and Grigon Entertainment.
