Gaia Online enhances zOMG! with “randomized epic quests”
As a fan of Gaia Online, I was glad to have received a message from Christina Simmons, assistant account executive of public relations at Mullens PR, that Gaia Online has launched new features for its free MMO game zOMG!
“Hi Lucy, The fun just doesn’t stop over at Gaia Online! Today the site launches new exciting features to zOMG!, Gaia Online’s free-to-play MMO. For the first time ever, zOMG! will engage users in a whole new way with in-game mini-events – otherwise known as randomized epic quests, that will give players a unique experience each time they enter the game,” Simmons said.
I had to check this out since I was getting bored with trying to level up by picking on green hamsters in the sewers just to infiltrate the garden gnome armies and pink flamingos in the gardens. The mini-events are random that could range from Aerial Bombardments to an insect overload with Bug Breakout! to name a few. And according to zOMG! senior producer and creative director Dave Georgeson who hinted changes coming to the MMO, that this is just the beginning.
