About
Kingdom of Loathing, or “KOL” for short, is an online MMORPG created by Zack “Jick” Johnson and Josh “Mr. Skullhead” Nite. It was first released online in 2003. The game is notable for its simple stick-figure art, humorous in-game messages, and various pop culture references. Players can choose to play as one of 6 classes, only changing class when “ascending” after beating the game.
Muscle classes
All Muscle classes can get the ability “Armorcraftiness”, which gives the player the ability to craft advanced weapons and clothing. Muscle players rely on sheer power and large health reserves.
Turtle Tamers have the unique ability of turtle-taming, which is useful for gaining familiars or crafting certain items.
Seal Clubbers can summon infernal seals to fight for special loot.
Moxie classes
All Moxie classes can get “Advanced Cocktailcrafting”, which allows the player to summon special cocktail garnishes and mix advanced drinks. Moxie classes rely on speed and trickery to pickpocket monsters for extra items and cash.
