Online gaming company Nexon has launched a Facebook version of its hugely popular game “MapleStory.” The social version of the game, which is called “MapleStory Adventures,” marks the first time that Nexon has branched out into Facebook games.
“MapleStory Adventures” takes the elements that made “MapleStory” a massive global hit — it has more than 100 million players all over the world — to the Facebook platform. The colorful, anime-style game offers action-orientated gameplay and engaging storylines, just like in “MapleStory.” However, the game has been simplified slightly to allow for shorter bursts of gameplay.
In addition, you can invite your Facebook friends to help you complete quests. Once you have hired your friends, their avatars will appear alongside you as you attack enemies in the game. Also, you can exchange gifts with your Facebook friends so that you can help each other level up and boost energy.
During a closed beta period which lasted 11 days, “MapleStory Adventures” reached the beta cap of 30,000 players extremely quickly and received more than 40,000 Likes on its Facebook Page (it has 93,642 Likes at the time of this writing). In addition, players took part in quests more than 862,000 times and collected 14.2 million items, including gold and other consumable items.
“MapleStory Adventures represents one of Nexon’s top priorities of bringing our most popular games to the biggest audiences,” said Daniel Kim, CEO of Nexon America. “The game brings a whole new action RPG element to the Facebook space, a genre that hasn’t been widely explored on the social gaming platform.”
