When I first played Runescape I had been a snivelling preteen with too much time on his hands. It had been the only runescape mobile gold game of its scale and size I had access to - all it required was a dial-up internet connection and a browser window. As an added bonus, that meant I could play with it both in your home and in college. Ten years on, despite cataclysmic adjustments and enhancements, its unique brand of total accessibility is still going strong in a world where free MMOs are commonplace, and you don't have to wait for your parents to get off the phone to log in.

Connected: talking of free MMOs, here are some to test out in case your Steam pocket is empty. I recently tried to log in to a very old email account, which I can only do by hunting down an even older login for Runescape. A username can bring back a great deal of memories as it occurs, especially one such as g0ds1ayer94. This saga got me thinking: what is ol' Runie like these days? Fuelled by nostalgia, I made a new account and started exploring the fantasy world of Gielinor once more.

In the ten years I've been away, Runescape has gone out of a fantasy-themed chatroom to a fully fledged MMO, complete with its very own annual festival, a card game twist off and enough content to make 12-year-old me weak at the knees. If you can believe it, you have to really download the most recent version of the game.

It is a game that's maintained buy RuneScape gold many of its players through constant updates and unrivalled audience interaction; log for a month and you may have missed something that the community will be referencing for the next few decades.
