JXII is a free online strategy game based on Chinese legendary characters. In it, you are an ancient warrior that can earn money by defeating monsters and carrying out different tasks.
The game's graphics are good but not terrific; also, the music is more enjoyable than in other games since it's based on Chinese tunes. Nevertheless, it can get boring after a while.
Regarding its disadvantages, some parts of the game's homepage aren't translated into English, so you need to use a translation engine to read them. Also, the size of the client is massive and it can take a while to download. On the other hand, the client is not actually installed in your system, but you need to unzip all the components into a folder, and click on the executable file to open it.
Another annoying feature is that you need to create an account in the site, and another in the game, when in other games of this kind you can use a single account both in the site and in the game.
In sum, if you like strategy online games, and/or are fan of Chinese culture, you may want to give this one a try.
