Forumwarz is a parody role-playing game that takes place on the Internet. In fact, Forumwarz is the Internet... in game form.
Magical dragon-faeries? Flaxen-hair’d elflords? Dank scary dungeons, reminiscent of Grandpa’s basement? Kids’ stuff. In Forumwarz, you can pwn trolls in ridiculous web forums... buy hacked warez from shady Russian websites... or upgrade your skills with breast implants, malt liquor and antidepressants.
Assume the role of one of five Internet personas: Camwhore, Troll, Hacker, Permanoob or Emo Kid, each with their own special attacks, abilities and personalities.
Play in story mode and pwn your way through a dense world of mystery, intrigue and Internet idiocy. Or test your skillz against others in various player-versus-player challenges.
