Frankly, Loark is just a 2D grinding MMO (hack and slash) that combines a Chinese Unique theory of yin-yang and five elements (metal, wood, water, fire and earth). You will have to click monsters for long boring hours to level up once... not to mention that VIP status cost money every HOUR and the more you play, the more expensive the game costs.
If you're going to pay for a game, you're better off playing Diablo 3 (much better hack and slash game), or Crystal Saga (more players, less bugs) or any other game that doesn't belong to ClapAlong.
