The world of Punk Wars is a tough one to live in. Struck by a global cataclysm, our civilization as we know it has vanished from the face of the Earth. However, humankind did not give up and soon we managed to find our way back to technological advancement. Four new powers emerged, each faction basing their society on a different branch of industrial science, with a different set of unique skills and expressing irreconcilable cultural and philosophical differences.... And so, steampunk, atompunk, dieselpunk and steelpunk started to clash, fighting for dominance on the ruins of a once magnificent megacity.

As you enter the world of Punk Wars, you become the powerful leader of the mesianic steampunk, tenebrous dieselpunk, militaristic steelpunk or technocratic atompunk; explore the ruins of a bygone civilization, where resources are scarce and the dangers way too common. Develop your infrastructure and technology that will secure your triumph. Create a winning strategy and a playstyle for each faction, utilising their distinctive skills and units.

Swords of Legends Online explores an eons-long clash between the forces of light and darkness. Only those chosen by the spirit of the legendary sword buried deep within themselves may unlock the powers necessary to banish the fog of evil, death, and destruction that threatens to consume this tempestuous world. Players will become absorbed in the deep, vivid visuals and narrative as they hone their combat skills, form alliances, and defeat the fearsome enemies and bosses that spawn throughout the dangerous dungeons and world maps, enemy factions, and even the gods themselves.

Not everyone has friends on their list that haven’t played in 30 or more days. That doesn’t mean you shouldn’t be able to join the fun. Simply invite players from your friend list, play games, and unlock rewards! Even though you won’t be able to earn the 100-point first-game bonus, you’ll still be able to earn 10 points per game with these friends. Note: If you have eligible friends for Reboot a Friend, you must play with them in order to achieve points.
