Review: CrimeCraft

Crimecraft has been the most difficult review I’ve had to do for Loot Ninja thus far – not because of conflicted feelings on the game, but because it happened to be the most bland and uninteresting game I’ve been asked to review.  Seriously, it’s been a painful one.

At first glance, it looks good – Grand Theft Auto meets MMORPG.  On paper, it sounds good, but in practice, CrimeCraft is at best a loosely held together world with shoddy mechanics and less than stellar animations, and ultimately fails to engage on any level.

CrimeCraft Gets New Payment Model

CrimeCraft Screen

I spent the beginning of last week in San Francisco checking out CrimeCraft, where we learned all about the new payment model being adopted by the game. To encourage more people to play, Vogster is opening up an unlimited free trial for anyone to play the game. You’ll earn experience at a much slower rater and won’t be able to equip as many weapons and boosts, but it’s a great way to see what’s up in the world of CrimeCraft. Check back soon for my full impressions of CrimeCraft and the press event from last week.

A dual tiered subscription model is also being put into place for those who want a bigger experience in the game world. For $4.99 a month, you’ll get more customization, weapons slots, etc. than the free trial, and for $9.99 a month you’ll get the full package. It’s an MMO shooter, so it’s not too bad in terms of pricing. You’ll be on a month-to-month basis, so you can seamlessly move between the free and paid packages at any time.

To go along with the new pricing, a big content update is coming later this month. To see all the goods, hit the jump for the full list.
