but i could get into the tutorial, that's all, couldn't create character, couldn't play with others..o well.. just wait

some are solo stages, and some stages will let you have more people, you can do those quests with less people or solo, but you probably wont be able to finish it with a good score

Hello, this is Rakion Customer Care.

Thank you for joining Rakion Close Beta Test.

We need a few days to fix important bugs reported by many users and some bugs cannot be fixed during while our service is live. So we have decided to close the service temporarily till later. It will take about 4 days to apply the bug fixes and new security features and we will open again on August 17, 2005 16:00 (GMT+9, Wednesday).

We are sorry for any inconvenience this may have caused you, but you will be able to enjoy Rakion with more comfortable environment on Wednesday

Please be assured that your game data has not been erased during maintenance period so you can play again with the same data (character, item, gold etc).

After the close beta test for Rakion is ended on the 25th of August, all the game data will be wiped out. But we will give some special item (cannot buy at the item shop) to royal players (depends on playtime and level) as a gift.

Downloading full version of Rakion is available during the maintenance period for fixing bugs.
We deeply apologize for the unexpected closing of the service and thank you for your understanding in advance.

Yours Sincerely,
Softnyx co., Ltd.

actually i think it's pretty much similiar to Survivor Project in a way.
Teammatch, Solo Match, and Stage(Quest), every character has melee and long range attack abilities, but dun have snow balls, football in Rakion lar... ahaha...
The sort of creature summoning part remind me of Chaos Legion
