The game has a brilliant concept and artwork. But the developers screwed it up
big time. Please message me when something good will finally happen in this
game. Honestly....even a major revert around like what? 4 Years back? would be
welcome!

It's a very good, strategically deep game though the in game economy leaves me a
bit miffed. If you're patient and love grid based strategy RPG's, you could
easily bury hundreds of hours into this game.

Good MMORPG with tactics elements. Not pay-to-win, but pay-to-play once you
reach Zinit.
Play with friends, though. Soloing sucks

Update: Server Merge postponed till the end of the year, as usual 0 discussion
of how they are going to deal with the economy after the merge... Let's see if
they finally do something right or screw the few people left that are still
playing the game..
They had an amazing game with a unique concept and beautiful gameplay. Sadly
like others have said they are probably one of the worst developers around, they
don't listen to anybody unless it's too late, they focus on the wrong stuff most
of the time and frankly they don't care if you love the game only that you buy
stuff.
For quite sometimes the game is only plagued by bad decisions so overall not
recommended as long as ankama is behind it.

Watch the show. Don't play the game.
The devs don't care about their own player base.
I played this game because I liked the show.... and this game makes me wonder
how Wakfu became a good show in the first place.
this game has a lot of potential, but you often see mistakes(not just bugs, more
like balance/game design issues) in the game as soon as you get towards 10hours
in. and the devs don't care.
Let Ankama make good TV shows. I'm all for it. They suck at making games though.
sadly. Q_Q

This is the MMO I've kept coming back to. The battles are engaging (especially
for turn based tactics fans), it's really pretty, and a lot of the gameplay
elements are quite creative. There don't seem to be many people playing it any
more though; the last few times I've been on it the towns have been almost
comletely deserted. The devs also sometimes seem to make weird mistakes and
decisions with the direction the game goes. Too bad really; there's a lot of fun
to be had here, but a lot of the core elements of the game stop working if
there's only a small player base.

Game is horrible because it starts to lag out very quick on a computer that gets
60 FPS on max settings in black desert online. It's not my computer, it happens
on nearly any computer. The game becomes unplayable very quick and gets stutter
lag within minutes.
The developer has done nothing to fix this issue and it's only gotten worse
every single patch.

Terrible. I've been playing it since the beta. Apart from the weird gamaplay and
mechanic's decisions which is another big (but subjective) minus, the app is
completely bugged out. You see people complaining about bugs at beta and these
bugs are still there at the 5th anniversary. Multiple times their database
glitches out leaving you without gear, throphies, costumes, materials and other
stuff which took weeks to acquire. Best you get - some silly gift from Ankama as
a "compensation", other times you're just completely being ignored by support.
Game community keeps shrinking and that's no surprise. Comparing to what it was
years ago, it's just dead now. Disappointed people log back in hoping something
had been improved and abandon it again.
Also there's no way of disabling unbearably lagging effects which makes you
watch spells slo-mo and not being able to do turns in fight. And that's even on
new computers with unsupported graphic cards. For instance, my 10 years old
laptop with a supported graphic card runs it easily while on the new one with 8
gigs of RAM on the board the game lags out at you big time in fights.

Wakfu is a tactical MMORPG unlike any other MMO except for its prequel, Dofus.
It has play style similar to Final Fantasy Tactics where combat takes place in a
grid.
The character classes (15 of them) in Wakfu (and Dofus) have unique play styles
and the classes themselves can be played many different ways.
The spells have a variety of rules, and positioning makes a big factor in damage
dealt/recieved.
The art in this game is very charming. It's very pleasing to just look at the
content in the game.
The music is very pleasing as well. All from playful, cheery music to serious,
blood-pumping music.
There is a lot of humor in this game and a lot of funny parodies. A lot of
naughty references are in the game too, but are subtle enough that kids wouldn't
(or shouldn't) understand.
Of course, playing in a team with others is a lot of fun (and often necessary
for tackling dungeons of your lvl). Being in a guild & the in-game group finder
tool helps with playing with others to enjoy the game better.
Players can also make an impact on the environment. Most mobs can be planted to
have them spawn, and they can also be killed enough to have very little to no
population in the area (sometimes ghost forms appear when that happens).
Flowers, Trees, and crops can also be planted in the world and are shared with
others, and they can also be completely harvested with none left for others.
Making certain plant/mob population too high or too low or just right can affect
area bonuses and nation bonuses. One nation (Riktus) benefits from other nations
having their bonuses ruined.
The environment, plus nation laws and wars set by a governor voted by its
citizens (who then can appoint other people to different positions in
government), makes for interesting experiences in the world.
I've been playing this game for a long time (since open beta Jan 2012). It's
enjoyable and I recommend it.

A fun MMO that has a different playstyle than any other MMOs I have played. Turn
based, although it is quite grindy. Crafting is useful though be prepared to
also grind for materials, and have professions require mats from different
professions. There is government and PvP for those that like that.
Interesting storyline and there are quests to be had. I've played since its beta
and it has come a long way, mostly for the better I feel. Cash shop has mostly
cosmetic purchases, and while free to play there are benefits for being a
subscriber/premium member.
A nice time sink for those MMO fans out there that want a different feel to the
usual.

It's been almost a decade since WAKFU's launch, and the developers are still
unsure about core elements such as the game's business model and attribute
allocation system. Back in 2012 (when I started playing), it was
subscription-based with a cosmetic cash shop. The player base decreased
drastically after a few years, so the game went free-to-play with optional
premium and non-cosmetic cash items (such as faster mounts and sidekicks).
Nowadays, the game continues to revamp stuff over and over and encourages using
premium more and more by rendering sidekicks useless. You either have to
subscribe and use your own characters or find enough players to run content
with, which isn't always possible.
In other words, playing this game is stressful because you never know when
things will change for the worse. Don't get me wrong, when it comes to world
building and personality, Ankama is amazing. WAKFU brims with creativity and is
one of the few remaining MMOTRPGs. However, the developers themselves not
knowing what they want the game to be after ten years is very worrisome.

(3000+ hrs on their own game launcher)
If you decide to play any of this company's (Ankama) games (Dofus, Dofus Touch,
Wakfu, Krosmaga, Krosmaster, etc.), do NOT invest yourself in it.
While the games are unique in their genre and quite fun, Ankama will not
hesitate to f*** you over big time. I was simply addicted to their main MMO,
Dofus, and I could just not take it anymore. They're the worst company I have
ever seen.
Support is non existent, for once. If you issue is more complicated than a
password reset, support will NOT help you. You will often have to reopen your
closed tickets several times for the support to actually read your message. Most
of their answers are some copy pasted crap that does not fit your issue at all.
Second, and it's not so bad in itself compared to the other stuff, their updates
don't make any sense at all. Tomorrow they might decide they change the whole
game without consulting the community and they'll just roll with it. One
''funny'' moment was when they lost half of their player base deciding to switch
from version 1.29 to 2.0 on their main PC game, Dofus. There was no options to
stay on the old game, they just switched everything over and RIP. Let's not talk
about how they willingly ruined 1v1 PVP, or how they keep making the same
mistakes over and over without ever improving (rollbacks, awful class changes,
awful mechanic changes, etc.)
Which leads me to my third point, which made me delete their games. They
sometimes throw events out where you get 2 times the xp, drop, etc etc. Pretty
cool, uh? Everyone makes sure they barely sleep at all to play as much as
possible and farm like hell. But what they did recently was just too much. A
player found a way to generate their in-game cash shop items for free (please
note that the items in themselves were not generating any value outside
cosmetics and that they were linked for 3 months to the account that bought
them). This was on Tuesday, and was noticed by the staff on friday. The issue
was leaked in the whole community, and Ankama was well aware of the issue. No
communication on their end, however (like usual) and the double week end went
on. Everyone played the game like mad monkeys, my friends and myself included.
We didn't sleep. We did some incredible things, pushed several characters to the
ultimate level and generated for $1500 worth of in-game currency (legitely).
Well, when the week-end ended, they rollbacked everything up to friday morning.
Not only did they wiped, without warning, all the player's efforts, they did not
wipe everything that was generated because of the bug. No apologies, and they
did not answer to alternative ways players bringed up (which were pleeeentiful
and legitimate ways to fix the bug). They do that at least 2 times a year since
they exist. If you ask for a compensation for a very specific item that dropped
when you have 1% of getting it, and worth $400... The support will say too bad
for you pal.
They're just lazy, and don't care about you. They only care about what you're
going to inject in their cash shop. There's so many games out there that are
great and are worth your time. I don't recommend you give it or any money to
Ankama. You can google their reviews yourself, starting with ''rollback'', and
have a good laugh.
Oh, that and Wakfu's dying with no plans on reviving it.
RIP.

dont play this game, dont purchase anything made by this company. watch the
"anime" if you want, but dont bother playing any of ankamas games, paticuarily
this or dofus.
game is trash, support is dead, community is mostly dead. from someone with
thousands of off steam hours its doubtful the servers/community will ever
recover. all of this a far cry from how populated and fun their games used to be
years ago. however through horrible supports, un-needed updates and garbage
balancing as well as constant anti-consumer decisions, ankama successfully bled
out their own games. this movement to steam was likely their last chance to fix
things
but they failed.
