     Another Battle - Runescape  www.runescape.com 

    After spending a few minutes on this site I can understand why the boys recommended that I had a look at it. Runescape is flashy. The graphics are excellent and the music loud and of excellent quality.  The game requires Java to run it and is “playable” straight on the screen with nothing else to download. There is a distinction between freeplay and member play as some of the “Worlds” within the game are locked to free players - I’m not sure what the difference between the games are. I suppose the site offers their 15,000 free hours and then you must subscribe.
    Runescape does require some time spent to set-up.

    • a profile is created - basically username, password, DOB, email address, country of residence. 
    • a world is selected - this must be a free world as member worlds are locked for freeplay
    • a character is designed - gender, clothing etc - could be classed as an avatar and is customisable, and changeable at certain times during the game.
    • mouse options selected
      then a tutorial begins.

    I worked through a fair bit of the tutorial and I actually quite enjoyed the setting up and acquiring of skills and items for use further into the game. I didn’t have to battle anything much during the tutorial, but that’s what this  game is about  too, although it is quite upmarket and sophisticated and much more than just a battle. I think that looking at Runescape and having a go at it for a while will help open up some avenues of conversation with some of my students which could be quite interesting.
