Nightfalls

Nightfalls was 37Games' free-to-play, browser-based champion-collecting MMORPG, casting players as a fallen angel recruiting a party of champions to fight back an encroaching darkness. It combined turn-based PvE dungeon crawling with PvP arenas and guild wars before its service closed in December 2017.

Why you might like it

  • Its champion-collecting hook — recruiting and formation-building dozens of heroes — gave it more team-building depth than a typical browser RPG.
  • It blended genuine PvE story content with PvP arenas, battlegrounds and guild wars, so both solo and competitive players had a path forward.
  • It's preserved here as a record of 37Games' browser-and-mobile take on the champion-collector genre before its 2017 shutdown.
Before you play

Things to consider

  • Nightfalls closed in December 2017 and can no longer be played on its original servers.
  • Automated leveling and grinding were a big part of the loop, which some players found more idle than active.
  • Independent, English-language coverage is fairly thin, so several details of its later content updates are undocumented.
