In 2008, the game had between 100,000 and 150,000 regular players.

These players form an active community which frequently organizes fan meet-ups and runs an internet radio station. The game has been generally well received by critics.

A screenshot of combat against scarab.Gameplay involves fighting monsters, completing quests, gaining skills and, and accumulating items and meat.In KoL's gameplay, a player's character is supplied with a number of adventures each day, at a base of 40, although this can be increased. The game day resets at a time called 'rollover'. Characters are allotted forty adventures every rollover, though they can increase that number with various equipment and items. Additional adventures can be acquired by consuming. However, only a limited amount of each can be consumed each day, and drinking too much booze puts the character into a for the remainder of the day. During rollover, drunkenness and fullness levels are reset, and minor amounts of and are restored. Although a character can accumulate a large number of adventures, the number is reduced to 200 at rollover.Most actions in the game use up adventures, including crafting items and exploring the game world (adventuring).

When exploring, players experience combat encounters, in which they fight monsters, as well as non-combat encounters. Combat is turn-based, meaning that the player and the monster take turns attacking one another using weapons, skills and items.

Players who successfully defeat a monster receive, pieces of meat (the game's currency), and various items. Non-combat encounters simply present the reader with a text description of an event, occasionally allowing the player to choose how to respond to that event.After gaining enough experience points, players will, allowing them to access new areas and quests.

Characters can combine items by using 'meat paste' (a substance analogous to glue), and can also cook, mix and weapons and armor. Characters may also earn trophies or tattoos for various in-game achievements. Puzzle-solving is an important part of the game, with the solutions often involving a certain item combination or the completion of tasks in different zones. Player interaction While Kingdom of Loathing 's content is largely single-player, some features allow multiplayer interaction.Player versus player (PvP) combat is voluntary, features a randomized selection of non-interactive minigames, and is subdivided into seasons. The winner of the PvP battle can take fame or items from the loser.The game features an integrated chat system which is available only after completing a basic test of. There are many chat channels, including a channel in which all chat must follow the syllabic conventions of. Most of the chat channels are moderated; those who violate the chat rules are banned.

Players can also send messages and gift packages to each other in-game, and the official Kingdom of Loathing forums are another active venue for discussion among players. Upon reaching level 3, characters may join a clan, a band of cooperating characters. A clan has a clan hall which can be furnished with beneficial equipment as well as a clan stash for sharing useful items. Clan members can chat with each other in a private chat channel. In 2008, a was added which allows clan members to cooperatively in Hobopolis, the underground city of.

Additional clan dungeons have since been added, including the Slimetube, Dreadsylvania, and the limited-time Haunted Sorority House.Players can buy a store in The of Loathing and sell their character's items to other players. Direct trading between two players is also possible, and in the trade chat channel users can auction items and advertise shops. This functionality has created a complex in-game economy which author Ted Friedman, in his book Electric dreams: computers in American culture, described as 'vibrant'.

The Kingdom of Loathing economy was the subject of an academic study, Economics in the Kingdom of Loathing: Analysis of Virtual Market Data in 2011. Character classes Players choose from six when they create a character. Each class has various items that characters obtain by completing class-specific quests. Characters also receive non-tradable class-dependent items as a reward for completing harder ascensions.

The classes can be split into groups based on the primary associated with them. Muscle classes: The two muscle classes are and Turtle Tamer. Muscle classes depend on strength and fighting ability. A character's Max HP is determined by his/her muscle, and Muscle classes gain an innate +50% boost to their Max HP. Mysticality classes: The mysticality classes are Pastamancer and Sauceror.

Gameplay for mysticality classes is focused on spellcasting and the use of magic. A character's Max MP is determined by his/her Mysticality, and Mysticality classes gain an innate +50% to their Max MP. Moxie classes: The moxie classes, Disco Bandit and Accordion Thief, use charm and dexterity to achieve success.Familiars are creatures that can accompany players in combat, performing (usually) helpful actions.

Familiars are often instrumental in the completion of quests. Familiars possess many abilities; for example, a Sabre-Toothed Lime attacks monsters, a grants extra meat after combat, and a Hovering increases stat gains from combat. Some familiars, such as the Ninja Pirate Zombie Robot, are very difficult to acquire. Ascension Ascension is a feature that allows characters to start the game over and play through it again from the beginning, similar to a feature. This feature becomes available after the game's final quest is completed. Players who ascend have their character's experience levels reset to one, but they retain their currency and items.

Ascending players can also choose to make their ascension more difficult by taking on various restrictions, such as not being able to eat or drink, in exchange for special rewards. In addition, the game features a leaderboard system which allows players to see one another's ascension speeds and compete for the fastest ascensions. Plot and setting The player takes on the role of an who is tasked with solving problems and killing monsters in a -based kingdom.

The game is humorous in nature, and most, battles and individual item descriptions include, or references to popular culture. Many quests parody the found in other role-playing games.The premise is that the Naughty has captured and 'imprismed' (imprisoned in a prism) the Kingdom's ruler, Ralph XI. The ultimate objective of the game is to defeat the Naughty Sorceress and free King Ralph. In King Ralph's absence, most of the power in the Kingdom of Loathing is held by the Council of Loathing, which gives quests to characters as they increase in level, with the final quest given when the character has reached level 13 and finished the other quests. Players can also unlock quests from other sources, some of which are available only after. Development. Zack Johnson at the 2018Zack Johnson, the game's creator, developed several games before Kingdom of Loathing but did not feel that they were good enough to release online.

Deciding that he was taking the games he created too seriously, Johnson then set himself the challenge of creating one within a week and publishing the result online. The result was more of a joke than a game, and the initial content including classes and even the name of the game were stream of consciousness.

The game was released in early 2003, and Johnson soon invited his childhood friend Josh Nite to contribute content as a writer and designer. Within a year, 300,000 player accounts had been created, far exceeding Johnson and Nite's expectations; Johnson has referred to the game's success as 'a never ending series of astonishments'. In 2008, the game had between 100,000 and 150,000 regular players.In the game's early days, Johnson worked on the game during breaks while at work, but eighteen months or so after launch, the game was bringing in enough money for Johnson to quit his day job as a programmer and develop the game full-time. He then began to pay Nite for his work and after approximately two years hired two more developers.

There are currently eight full-time employees working on Kingdom of Loathing, as well as three other employees who are working on a separate game.The game's creative process is fluid and loosely structured. According to Johnson, 'At this point, I provide the overall direction. I do about a quarter of the writing, a quarter of the coding, and almost all of the artwork.' The bulk of the writing is done by Nite, who also contributes design ideas, while two other developers, known in the game as Riff and HotStuff, work on writing, design, and coding.According to Nite, the game's writing style owes itself to a humorous email exchange between himself and Johnson that began when the two separated after high school. These emails 'helped us develop the shared comedic voice that KoL's written in'. The game's developers cite text-based games such as and as creative influences, and Nite has compared the game to the series of children's books.The game has been in open since its initial release, and is continuously being worked on. New content is released weekly or monthly, and there is also unique holiday-themed content every Christmas, known as Crimbo.

Occasionally, the developers stage world events such as the Gray Plague, which was similar to the in.In November 2014, Nite left Asymmetric Publications. Business model Kingdom of Loathing is and does not charge subscription fees.Maintenance and development of the game is supported primarily through donations and players who donate $10 to the game receive a powerful item known as a Mr.

Accessories can be equipped to give stat boosts or spent in the 'Mr. Store' to buy powerful items (including special monthly items). Accessories and Mr. Store items may be traded freely between players. According to an interview with Zack Johnson from 2010, Johnson originally established the Mr. Accessory revenue model as 'kind of an afterthought', but it became lucrative enough to allow him to work on the game full-time and eventually to hire several permanent employees. Community Kingdom of Loathing has been praised for its welcoming and active player community.

One of the most unusual aspects of the community is the large number of female players: according to Johnson, approximately 40% of players are female. Fans often gather at both official conventions, run by Asymmetric, and unofficial player-organized meet-ups, including the annual KoLumbus event.

Players support the game by writing to perform various in-game functions, using, and, and have also developed a player-run which offers puzzle solutions and walkthroughs. Longtime player and nerdcore rapper is active in the community and included a Kingdom of Loathing-themed song on his 2010 album.Brett Bixler, founder of the Educational Gaming Commons at, has hypothesized that the Kingdom of Loathing community is successful because it accounts for 's of player personality types in, creating a balanced gameplay system that appeals to a wide variety of players. Researcher Martin Oliver addressed similar issues in a 2009 study of the Kingdom of Loathing player community, 'Playing Roles in the MMORPG Kingdom of Loathing'.A -based radio station, Radio KoL, is the 'official unofficial' radio station of KoL.

It is a -hosted station, with volunteer DJs drawn from the KoL user base.
