Whispered Scrolls: A Free Action Combat MMO with 20 skills. The Headless Horseman rides the Lamplight Road at night for the first Halloween Event!
I'm the solo developer behind Whispered Scrolls, a free fantasy MMO. It's a skilling MMO at heart, built around rich character progression and interconnected skill systems. Whispered Scrolls offers engaging action combat in which you aim every attack, block, and ability and dodge the incoming hits yourself. There are 20 skills to master, 21 dungeons for parties of up to five, and over a hundred quests.

Since the initial release on the 8th, I've improved the game dramatically - PvP with systems like Caravans vs Raiders, updated textures and visual polish, dynamic weather from clear sunny skies to blizzards, thunderstorms, and so much more. The game is currently 100% free to play, and you can start with just a guest account. No signup needed!
I am excited to share that my first seasonal event went live and runs until November 3!
* **At night, cursed Jack-o'-Lanterns fill the fields around every town.** By day, Hollow Scarecrows climb down from their posts and wander the farms. * **Both drop Harvest Tokens.** Trade them at the Harvest Fair in Hearthmoor for the Harvest Scarf, Mantle, Hood or an exclusive Cloak. * **Two rare drops to hunt:** the Jack-o'-Lantern Headpiece from the Jacks and the Straw Scarecrow Hat from the Scarecrows. Both are tradeable. * **After dusk the Headless Horseman rides out along the Lamp Road.** He's a dangerous world boss, so bring friends or team up with fellow listeners playing. Bring him down before dawn and everyone who fought gets his burning skeletal horse as a mount, plus the title Horseman's Bane. He also has a rare drop of his own, the Horseman's Scythe. The halter and the scythe are both tradeable.

**A few things to know:**
* You can either play via the dedicated Windows client or via a web browser. Chrome works best. It plays best in fullscreen (F11). * The game has action combat, and requires a keyboard and mouse. Mobile support as well as controller support to release this weekend. * There is already hundreds of hours of content. However, It's in early alpha, so if you hit a rough edge, please press F8 in game to send me a bug report with a screenshot. * No pay-to-win, ever.
**The event runs until the end of November 3. Keep to the lamplight!**
