Bah, help me remember this game...

One of the hundreds of free MMO's to be released... This one was interesting enough to keep my attention for a week or so.

Anyways, it's a 2d game, sort of isometric view. The graphics were very colorful and cutesy. The game revolved quite a bit around the crafting, and you got all of your materials from the enemies you killed. I also remember you played a bejeweled minigame that affected the quality of the item you made. It also had a decent auction house.

It actually would have been a decent game if it didn't suffer from the same MMO grind as every other Korean mmo out there.

    I would've said Puzzle Pirates, if you hadn't mentioned the Korean and grindy things.

    No, there's the typical Korean MMO combat that involves spamming the "drink potion" button, or just fighting enemies that take three hits to kill.

    No... I wish I could remember more specifics.. I figure the Bejeweled type minigame during crafting would be a dead giveaway.

    IIRC, the title was a single word, kinda short, 5-8 letters long? It was a strange word, or a strange spelling of a word.

    Shit.. I think I just remembered it.

    edit:

    Yeah, Goonzu. Oh well, thanks for the help. It was obviously "right there".

    Shit. I played the game you are talking about... I seriously can't remember what it is right now. Maybe I'll remember in the morning.

    I got it.. Just a strange name. Like I said, it's actually not bad for a Korean MMO. Just bad for an MMO.

    Yeah, the crafting was the only "fun" part about it. And at that point I might as well be playing Puzzle Quest or something. :P
