My obsession in Free Realms is that I love collecting items in free realms. It'll keep me going for a long time.

I love playing Free Realms with my grandsons. They live in a different city and this is our way of keeping in touch and having fun together.

My obsession has to be collecting. I have finished all the current collections except for the new ones for demo driver and kart racing - but I am working on them. I started a second character just so I could collect it all again!

My favorite outfit is the tower defense outfit from Briarwood - and a close second it the snowhill chest outfit.

My favorite job is Archer -- my how I love that sniper shot!! Sure beats running in and getting beat up. I also like Wizard -- doesn't everyone want to do magic!

I am still learning the trading card game. I think I was a level 10 Card Duelist before I even knew what I was doing. It's more fun every time I play.

Thanks ZAM for a terrific site. Since I started playing Free Realms, my motto has been "If in doubt, check it out on ZAM". Thanks also for the chance to win a comic book for my grandson.

This site is awesome. I come here everytime i need help for a collection or a quest. It's even awesomer now that it's giving away free St00f :D.

I've been playing FR since late June, and I'm totally addicted. I became a member literally like a few days after first creating my account, lol.

My hobby in FR is definately exploring. I get a kick out of finding hard to teach places and just generally going to everywhere on the map. Which is why it makes me sad that SOE has been putting up more invisible walls to stop players from getting into places :(.

I dream of becoming a developer for FR one day so I can put all my ideas into the game, such as my idea for improved penguin graphics :D. I would be so happy if i could improve FR to the player's satisfaction :).

Druids ftw!...even though we know like nothing about the job yet, lol.

Free Realms is to me, more than just one game. One day I focus entirely on leveling my warrior, whereas the following day may be spent treasure hunting with one of my pets. I particularly enjoy combat jobs - partially for the action and combat itself, and partially because i enjoy collecting armor!

Collections are a focus for me, and not just the official collectibles. I also collect freestyle clothes, jewelry, and pretty much anything else you can think of :) I love to play TCG, although i must admit i am only an average player (sufficiently mediocre, if you will) - and it was one of the first jobs I leveled up.

I have played many games over the years - many of which had the same MMO atmosphere as Free Realms. However, FR has managed to provide a game that not only contains the beloved elements of more traditional MMOs - it also offers its own innovative and unique twist. This twist is what allows Free Realms to be so much more than just one game - it can be whatever you want it to be. Whenever you want it to be.

I am just over my youth, and have been playing almost 2 months now. I do a bit of everything in Free Realms. My Character is a Human Female, Rose Era, and I love playing the Combat Jobs. More specificly, I tend to play the Archer, Ninja, and Medic jobs more often. Archer for me has always been a must have class, I love doing damage at range and getting away with it. Ninja has some interesting skills with a high ammount of damage output which when mixed, can make a very heavy hitting Job. Medic is pretty straight forward, heal my teammates. Pretty average damage, but being able to heal my friends makes me feel like I care about them just a little more then before.

Most recently I have started to play Free Realms TCG, but at the moment my skill in the game is average if not lower. I do plan on getting better, and with the Nature Orb. I started out with Nature and learned to love it greatly, and I wouldn't mind being the best Nature player :D.

Now I hear the Free Realms magazine has started, and I want to get my hands on one as soon as I can. The story of Sacred Grove started to dig it's roots in me and I want to create a story of my own character in the world of Sacred Grove. One thing I want to make sure of is to get Events and History correct when I make it, that is why I have yet to actually start.

My favourite job is Pet Trainer. I really love just walking around while doing collections and rich mines. I really cant wait for the Druid combat class, because its gotta be exciting. Im playing Druid in WoW. I also play the TCG with one of my friends, and I hope that there will come out new booster packs for it. By the way, Im playing a Robgoblin deck, and my friend has an awesome Forest Troll deck. I usually walk arround as either Warrior or Wizzard, because those are my favourite Combat Jobs, and they look cool. I have a ghost dog with full bionic set.

I've been playing FR since just before release. I got into the beta about 1 week before it came out. I'm mainly playing the game with my girls. We have a great time working our characters together and exploring the world.

I also have started recording a podcast focused on the game with my oldest daughter. Each week we've had the opportunity to share with others our enjoyment of the game. It's been great fun and we look forward to many more episodes. It's been a great way to connect with her.

We play on server 7. I'm Zachary Weaselchaser. The podcast is 'The Sanctuary'. (thesanctuarypodcast.blogspot.com) Also on iTunes.

I started out in Free Realms just to see if it was appropriate for my daughters and now they have to bug me for their turn! I think ninja is my favorite job, along with chef and pet trainer. Finishing off collections is addicting too.

I think my favorite outfit is the Briarheart chest outfit, and I really like the shadow pets(even though we can't get them till they come out with a family plan for membership!) And I can't live without my Rudolfo's speedy kicks now that I've gotten used to going places faster when I don't tele.

Thank you guys for doing this contest--this really is the most informative site I've found online, and the format you use for looking up quests/jobs/collections is fabulous!

Hello all!

I have been playing free realms since beta and still enjoy it. The thing that drew me into free realms first was the art style. I have been doodling and drawing my whole life and have always said if I were to make an online game, it would look like this. It has a certain disney-esque style to it, and a great whimsical quality about the whole world!

The second thing I like, is that it is a casual game. It isn't about a grind or about spending your whole life to reach max level. It is about enjoying your own play style and doing it on your own terms.

I do, however enjoy the balance of the game: its not too easy and not too hard. You can level at your own pace, and once that is done you can do some optional things that are a bit of a challenge (like do many runs on dungeons just to get all the different drops).

My favorite job so far is probably adventurer because of all the different things u can wear and use, but I also really enjoy racing friends and the card game!

Yay found it. Been meaning to register over here and now I am official. Love your site. Use it all the time :)

Hi! I'm Kaden Skycliff, and my home is Server 7.

My Free Realms obsession is definately PETS! I love the little critters, and I have eight of them! I have six dogs, and two cats. My favorites are my pirate pug, Captain Mojo, and my ninja toyger, Ace. my favorite job is a tie between medic and adventurer. Both were the first jobs I ever leveled to level twenty. While I love the relaxing aspect of exploring, I also have a personal attachment with medic since it has been my dream to be a military medic since I was a kid.

As for my outfit, I have become so known for my panda mask that I actually get yelled at when I dont wear it. My typical outfit is usually my panda mask with my purple shirt, my snowhill defender pants and backpack, my rocker shoes, and my snowy floppy fish. Its both oddly fashionably, yet still very wacky!

Okay since I entered too early, I am now re-posting. I hadn't planned on playing Free Realms, but when I was given access to the beta I decided to give it a shot. I was immediately impressed with the style of graphics, reminiscent of WoW but in my opinion much cleaner and more consistent. Also the mixture of modern and fantasy really appealed to me as my favorite books and games also feature a similar mix.

What really got me was the game play. Here was a game that didn't demand endless grinding (just a little bit) like other MMOs. I have played many, many, MANY MMOs, my first being EQ and before that MUDs. I have only capped out a character on one game, and that is SWG. I almost ALWAYS lose interest in a MMO about mid level. Free Realms on the other hand catered to my casual sense. It even celebrated my exploratory side by making one whole job centered around that particular style.

Trumping even that was the mixture of different styles of game play. From mini-games to racing to combat, Free Realms seemed to have it all. So I got pretty involved in the community.

I have taken it one step further now by getting involved and producing my own content. I have a podcast, now on its seventh episode dedicated to the show. I have made multiple videos. I even made a remix of the Free Realms theme. I don't even want to mention how much money I have already spent in the Marketplace.

You probably won't find many more people out there who have so heavily invested in this game as I have, but I totally feel that it is worth it! There just isn't another game on the market quite like Free Realms and I'm glad that it is a part of my life now.

Despite the frustrating difficulty, Kart Racer is probably my favorite job. I just love racing. I could probably do it all day. I hope that they have new challenges in the future. Maybe dailies for racing? Anyway I stuck it out and got my trophy, and the trophy for demo derby too!

My obsession would be the marketplace. I am a compulsive buyer and I am always on the look out for new clothes. I would buy it all but I'd probably hate myself in the morning. There needs to be more events where I can show off my clothes!

I play freerealms with my two boys. I was hooked since the beta.

I'm obsessed with getting all of my jobs to level 20. I love all of the jobs for different reasons, but I probably use the Adventurer job the most because of the wide range of outfits I can use. However, I also really like some of the lvl 20 weapons you can get with the combat jobs.

I think the best in game reward I've received is from the defend the castle minigame series of quests. I wish more quest lines rewards as great as those.

Comic Craziness giveaway! Sah-weeeet ._.

FreeRealms is definately something else and I've enjoyed it's mix of fun and quirky/cool and challenging. What other game can you wear a hot dog suit while farting after consuming a bean burrito? Case closed.

I know it's a popular job but I really dig the Ninja job. It's what interested me in playing in the first place. I also enjoyed leveling up my Postman and getting the speedy kicks so that I could run around the Realms doing FR Parkour/free-running.

The button collections were exciting to do because they reward you with different colored button eye potions, and I lubz me sum button eyes O_O

Meet me in-game (Sev Kenek) and let's have ourselves a blasty blast of extremeatude :D

This is the place I always come to get my Free Realms info.

The game is just fun, very casual. I can hop in, play a little, and then leave as my schedule permits- I don't have to dedicate hours of my time, which is important because I have a young son.... who adores watching me play :)

And there's more to do then just fight and level. Minigames, collections, cooking- it's a wonderful change of pace for an MMO! I have fun just wandering around trying to fill my collections. Guilty pleasure there, OCD much? :P

Yeah, that can be confusing. The contest times are all Pacific time, but the forums are on Eastern.

Free Realms has easily become an obsession. It allows you the diversity that no other MMO has been able to match. Any job, any time with no pressure on leveling. Collections gallore, minigames to play and a great community of people to talk with.

Collections are addictive. I run all over the world, getting every junkpile, flower and pile of leaves I can manage. And just when i think im starting to make some headway into them, BAM "Collection Started" pops across my screen. I just love it, sometimes it feels endless, but i know ill manage.

As for jobs, there isnt anything there to dislike. Ive played a wizard (mage) in nearly every MMO i have ever tried, and this one doesnt disappoint. Fireballs, Icestorms, and a nice bolt of Lightning keep your enemies at bay, while you safely "nuke" them from a distance. Of course you have to, since you have two less armor slots than other classes. And if staying at a distance isnt your thing, the warrior is a great choice to get right in their faces and slam em with everything you got. Theres only one rule in Free Realms, "Its YOUR world, do what YOU want to do".

I started playing EQ in '99, switched to EQ2 in '04 and now ive played FR since the beta. And through it all, thick and thin, ZAM has guided my every move and always been there to help me out in a pinch. Im so happy they picked up with my new obsession and i love that anyone can contribute to the sites Wiki. Now we can all share our knowledge, experiences and obsessions with each other.

My character is Pavana. She's an explorer/adventurer, miner/blacksmith and Brawler/Wizard. I've maxed in all of these - but look forward to new mines, perhaps more levels above 20 and new collections when the new lands are added to FreeRealms.

My pet is a ghostly glowing green kitty named Prince Echo. He was adopted at the BlackSpore swamp pet adoption center. So far have purchased him kitty shoes, and a sailor outfit, as well as new collar and of course LOT's of food, vitamins, shampoo and conditioner.

I love the graphics in FreeRealm. They are so beautiful, and makes exploring, searching for treasure spawns and doing quests a pleasure.

The sound effects in some combat situations are very good, and someone's studied their spiders. Spiders do indeed go on their back with all eight little legs in the air when they die. I almost feel guilty about hitting the spiders in this game. Glad they put a spider as a captive in one quest. When rescued he becomes a friendly spider with red hearts above his head - as he heads off to freedom.

Hello all!

I love Free Realms, I think it's the best game site ever for so very many reasons! I love the color and graphics, the way the lands look(somehow reminds me of Monet paintings - my favorite artist,) the way the sky looks when looking over the water at Seaside when the sun in coming up/going down...I love that you can swim out and stand on your own little piece of land and just listen to the ocean, and the fun music as well. For someone who loves the ocean, yet is landlocked it's a beautiful thing to be able to go and relax there at the beach. I also love the wilds and running around the hills and woods, near the rivers. I am always noticing and finding new things that I didn't notice before. I love running around with my speedy kicks on finding collections all though the lands, and I love to slow down and have any of my pets out and go treasure hunting with them and care for them. The cats are so sweet and are so life-like in their movements and mannerisms, and the dogs are always so happy and keep me cheered up when my usual day isn't so happy...they make me smile.

Free Realms really has been a wonderful escape for me from my health issues; at Free Realms I can run around unlike in real life...makes me feel like a kid again! :D

My favorite jobs?...I have to pick two, though I could probably pick more but will keep it to two: Archer and Adventurer. I absolutely love the archer's stealthiness and cool looks and I've always been a fan of Robin Hood so this is definitely my favorite combat job. Adventurer; because it's really what I have always loved to do, just wander around learning about places, discovering new things, taking in nature. It really fills my heart and gives me so much happiness to be able to explore at Free Realms and I can't wait for them to expand so I will have even more land to run around on and explore.

I play the TCG at the site and I collect the cards in real life, I just have no one to play it with here.

I can't pick only one favorite outfit. My main character has so very many clothes. I guess I love dressing up like a pirate most and dressing my pets to match and taking them to the beach and running around and pretending we are pirates on a deserted island.

My favorite pet? This is hard to say, I have a total of five pets for two characters. I love my original cat who is a fluffy black and white that I named Mojo...I took her on a trial and fell in love with her and just had to buy her after that, else I would have felt bad leaving her. My other cat, a beautiful calico, I named Carmela reminds me a lot of my real-life cat, and I love Carmela's sweet "meow" and she always looks like she is really smiling and happy and interested in everything! I love all my dogs, two of them were free, one from "pug whistle," the other from the TCG starter pack. Then I most recently bought an "Echo" dog, and she is just the best! I added "Lady" to the beginning of her name, I did not want to change the "Echo" part; I just like that name and it seemed more original than so many other names that are listed, also reminded me of the old Echo Dolphin game. Lady Echo is a wonderful treasure hunter and always seems happy and is a wonderful companion!

Well, I think that is probably more than enough information right now. I just want to say that I love Free Realms, it has brought me so much happiness! I can't wait to see what's next!

Woot!

Free Realms is a great place to relax and to socialize.
And who could keep away from those Banana Suits!
Aside from all of the various jobs, exploration stands out on the top.


Enjoy your time on FR, because it's gonna be a great ride!

Thank you for making this Giveaway possible.
:)

Hi guys~

I am Aiden~ been playing on server 3 for 3 months now. Like many, I have played quite a few MMO in my time, and is quite accustomed to the "regular routine". The thing that got me straight away was definitely the adventurer job, just running around looking for things, the world is beautiful and consistent and unlike any of my previous mmo experience, there is actually a purpose to visit every corner of the world other than to find the next monster to grind on.

Being so attached to adventurer, I got really addicted to collecting junk piles and leafs and this addiction led me to one of the greatest thing in the game, the trading party. The first one I attended was the one by the seaside cafe. People giving stuff away to each other, the harmony was immense. As well as getting my collections complete, I have also met some of the greatest people there, that's actually the place where I met all my guild mates.

These days we are just have fun, teleporting to each other, leaving a cake behind/fart or burp into a friend's face and disappear into the mist. Not so much the farts and burps, we all know those are on limited runs =\

I love playing FreeRealms because for it was an All-in-one game. You don't need to create another character just to have another job but in FreeRealms about 15 jobs are in one character. Though it was only maxed at level 20 but I'm still enjoying FreeRealms like collecting the collections, card dueling, and also defense minigame. Wow! it just like DOTA. All I've imagined that I wasn't ever experience in other online games. It just in here. FreeRealms!!

I like all the free jobs because I'm making fun of collecting job collections and also a set of colored equipments of Ninja and Brawler.

I've one thing to ask and to suggest, I'm asking that is all Ninja Jobs have a lacking stars on their ability page? cause I'm level 20 and suppose to be the total stars are 24700 so it happens that my Ninja Job only acquires 24797 so lacking 3 stars. I've already reported it but I'm still waiting the result. I'm suggesting that I hope there is a HAIRSTYLE SALON meaning it can change hairstyles and face hair for men. That's all.

Thank you for giving this opportunity to be part of FreeRealms.

A new day! I'll pick Monday's names in the morning (*my* morning!), but start posting for Tuesday!

-For Tuesday-
FreeRealms is one game that has one word to describe the feeling of the game, that word is YOU. This is a game where you can choose what you want to do instead of following one path. FreeRealms in my opinion is a luxurious vacation on a distant planet far away from Earth. You can escape away from other MMORPGs that caused you to suffer to grind as FreeRealms becomes your guiding hand while you embark on a new adventure full of mysteries and fun. Even if you start over as a new character, the tutorial will be there so it can teach and remind you how to play.

Free Realms has tons of minigames within skills or game tables. There is a Trading Card Game for anybody that is interested in trading card games, unlike myself. It can be hard at first, I will try to get the hang of it. Quests can keep you busy for awhile, so does the adventure of hunting Collections. Exploration can be a handful at times, though you should never forget to socialize with one or another.

I had begun playing Free Realms right after spring break in April, few people in my town had never heard of FreeRealms. I suggested this game to a friend online and she was very interested as we both got hooked on it for days. She lives on the East Coast of the USA while I live on the West Coast, how sad isn't it? Anyways, she and I are happy that we can contact each other now.

One of my favorite pets is a Labrador in the game. Although I cannot afford one in real life, I can be with one in the game. My pet helps me out in situations where I have a difficult time finding a treasure, in the end... my dog helped me.

My favorite job is a Ninja, never underestimate me, I will seek you out! It's a very unique job to be on as the other Brawling jobs are. As a Ninja, I must defeat all of my foes as possible!
