So what does that actually mean for the users. Guessing that means there will no longer be multi play, but could you still play solo. Game had great character artwork, would be a shame to lose that also.

The game is always connected, so no one will be able to play it once it shuts down. Not much to do solo anyway. You could finish the "story" quests, I suppose, but the meat of the game was killing raid bosses, which keep leveling up and are not feasible to kill by yourself past a certain point. The main story was based on your account level, so if you were at max (50, I believe?), there was no more story to see.

That's the problem with these games. You invest your money in them, then boom, they are gone.

This was posted a LOT of times before gamevil released this game on the gamevil site and forum that Square was already shutting down this game everywhere else because they released a much superior squeal call Kairisei Million Arthur.

This version was ok for back in the day when mobile was new but it had no gameplay and it was all auto-battle.

The much superior squeal had multiplayer and have actually gameplay in it. Be smart gamevil and release Kairisei Million Arthur!!!

Not really a problem. They shut down the serve er because most people don't to play it any more. Not much different than monthly fee mmo. Once the server shuts down , your are done.

Yes, it is a problem, if you like the game. At the very least, some sort of solo play should be incorporated. May not be as fun as multiplayer, but at least you would have access to the game and your history with it.
