Trickster Online shares a lot of similarities with ''VideoGame/RagnarokOnline'', though the mechanics are fairly different and it has quests in place of monster grinding like most modern [=MMORPGs=]. Also ingrained in the game is a system that allows people to drill for things underground. And everyone starts off looking LittleBitBeastly due to [[{{Cosplay}} entry requiring this]].
