Spyware Warning![en.wikipedia.org] This game acts as spyware and performs personal data gathering and transmission. It attempts to install the Xigncode3 malware/rootkit into your PC, which cannot be removed cleanly afterwards. This spyware rootkit compromises the integrity of your PC. This spyware rootkit monitors and reports on all aspects of your PC as well as your browsing history, passwords and online activity. There's no way to opt out and you are forced to agree to a non-enforcable agreement which involves the developer selling your private data and profiling you. This is completely unethical and reprehensible. Gamers must be aware of the dangers of installing this harmful software and should avoid this completely.

Warning: Microtransaction infested mobile app![en.wikipedia.org]

This game is infested with a toxic mobile app style cash shop. You will be prompted to and expected to give money to the developers through this cash shop to buy in-game goods so you can play the game.

Eternal Kingdom Battle Peak is one of thousands of nasty mobile apps infesting the "free" section of Steam, but it's not really free.

There's only a superficial "game" here.

This sure looks like a real Japanese MMORPG, doesn't it? Wow, you may be thinking, it's final fantasy online, but for free! Of course none of that is true.

So really, the mobile app "game" is just a veneer, a thin skin wrapped around a nasty, predatory mobile app cash shop.

Thus, the true purpose of this mobile app is to get you to hand your credit card details to the greedy mobile devs so you can buy stuff in the nasty cash shop... it shouldn't be considered a real game because it's a mobile app cash harvester, and has no place in your game library.

Putting that toxic mobile app monetisation aside... this is a mobile app. I didn't spend thousands on a gaming PC so I could pretend it's an iPhone, and I don't think you did either... this kind of mobile app has no place in your Steam library.

Despite having no up-front cost, this failed to appeal to the 120 million+ gamers on Steam. SteamDB showed the game peaked at less than 100 concurrent players, they couldn't even break three figures, and now there's basically nobody playing it. Even though it's free. This is a dismal public reception, but it's easy to see why gamers rejected it.

Bearing in mind that free games don't add +1 to your game collector count, should you bother adding this to your library and downloading it?

Nope. This isn't worth downloading. While this didn't cost me any money up front, I still feel ripped off.
