You may see when you read the review below that it has no images, the review is not quite finished yet, thats where i would like you to give me some tips and suggestions on making the review better

Grophland review

First Impressions of the site. – 6/10
My first impressions of the site was overall good, the art was good, the one problem that I had was the layout, it did not look like it was going to be easy to navigate and did not look like a cool, fun layout.

Tutorial & Navigation – 6/10

The tutorial was simple, easy and basically a step by step guide to the site, I thouroughly enjoyed reading through it, without it, I would not of been able to navigate around the site without confusion. I find the navigation terribly hard, if you do not read that tutorial I would of felt I was screwed, I still get mixed up now.
Games – 8/10

Grophland currently has 6 Games on the site, all very good games, one of the users on the site said “I like Grophland because it makes gambling fun”. Gambling is not for everyone so I thought I would check out the games and there I found them and they really were fun. The art is not the best in the Games but it stands out and is really good

Dailies – 8/10
There are some really good dailies on the site, one of them includes the stone circle, where you can touch the stones and may receive a free magical gift, there is plenty of other great dailies on the site and you can win some fabulous prizes from them

Art – 7/10
The art on the site is not the best art I have seen and could be improved like all art but it is good art, there pets (grophs) you can customise from clothes you have gained, the item art to me is really good quality art.


For fun - Grophland Crossword

This weeks crossword is extra special because if you complete the crossword, mail it to me and you get it right you win a special item and avatar code that can be redeemed on Grophland, also if you get it wrong and you tryed you get a avatar code for Grophland as well. When I give you the code, you will not be able to use it straight away, please give 24 hours so the code can be added to the system



Just download the crossword file, or copy the image above, fill it in and PM it to me on here, when I have marked it you will receive your code.


Thank you for reading this weeks issue, if you have any ideas or suggestions for the issue please contact me,

Many thanks
James

    Thanks for the review!

    If you try or win the crossword you can get an item code from santamynana to redeem with Amadeus.

    I'd just like to correct one point, there are currently 25 one-player mini-games on Grophland and 4 two-player games, not including battles or item-fetching quests (of which there are another 4).

    As for the new user layout, that is something we are actively redesigning at the moment. Current users can switch to the 'testing theme' on the themes list to see the work in progress, and we welcome any suggestions.

    I value feedback on all the areas we can improve. The question of the layout seems to be coming up a lot, which is why we are working on a new layout for new users.
