AdventureQuest Worlds is a browser-based massively multiplayer online role playing game. Instead of turn-by-turn basis battles, it uses real time battling with simultaneous players/monsters. Like many RPGs, players advance by gaining experience points from performing certain tasks (such as killing enemies) and gather currency and equipment. Equipment is only valuble cosmetically as all equippable items can be used with "enhancements" to give stat bonuses. AdventureQuest Worlds includes many classes that players can unlock and switch between, typically by performing a certain quest and buying them. Each class currently has four skills that are unlocked as the character uses a particular class more.
