Fiesta is a free, Massively Multiplayer Online Role Playing Game, published by Ons On Soft in Korea, and hosted by Outspark for the North American English market as well as by gamigo for EU territories (in English, German, French and Spanish language; More to come). Like a typical MMORPG, the player's character can adventure across the game's persistent online world, battle characters, level up and raise stats, complete quests, and party with other players. There are also guilds and guild wars, boss raid dungeons and item crafting options. The international English version went through several beta tests before a commercial launch in November, 2007. The German EU Version went into Beta in June 2008 followed by a completely reworked English OB Release (11th of September @8:30), and gamigo is working on a Spanish client as well as a French version in the fall of 2008. The new fiesta website is currently being translated into Italian, French and Spanish. The release of an Italian client is not certain yet.
Fiesta features an anime style look with characters rendered in a 3D manner. Likewise, the automatic protect guards and NPCs are depicted in a similar cartoonish style. Currently, Fiesta uses two character models (one male, one female) for each of the four classes. Players are given a specific style of clothing based on their chosen class (Fighter, Cleric, Archer, or Mage) and can choose between three different hair styles and three (very similar) hair colors. There is only one face to select per character class. Players may alter the appearance of their character by purchasing a Beauty Shop Coupon from the Fiesta Store, the game's online item mall. The Beauty Shop unlocks 10 hairstyles, 10 hair colors and 10 face types. One Beauty Shop Coupon allows one permanent change to each of the previous options.
The character classes in Fiesta represent only the strictest fantasy RPG archetypes. Each class has three ranks offering a specific path to follow, rather than allowing the player to specialize his or her character. At level 20, players may undertake a quest to promote their character's class to the next rank: Clever Fighter, High Cleric, Hawk Archer, and Wiz Mage respectively. The third rank is achieved by undertaking another quest that is only available once a second rank character has reached level 60. These promotions are required for a character to advance in both skills and the equipment they are allowed to use.

Fiesta Online Gameplay
Gameplay Information
Classes
Currently, there are 4 classes in Fiesta: Archers, Fighters, Mages and Clerics. Archers are a ranged class that use bows and crossbows and excel at doing large damage to a single enemy. They are also the only class with DOTs (damage over time), such as poison, bleed, and disease. Fighters are a close-ranged class that use one or two-handed swords or axes to deal damage. A Fighter can equip a one-handed sword and a shield to withstand hits, or wield an axe or two-handed sword for more damage. Mages are a ranged class that use staffs and wands and excel at doing raw damage. They are also capable of using strong AoE (Area of Effect) spells, such as Magic Burst or the powerful Inferno. Mages are the best class in terms of damage per second but also the weakest class in terms of defense. Clerics are a close-ranged class that use maces and hammers. Clerics are used to heal and resurrect other players because they are the only class that have that ability. Clerics are able to tank (known as "clanking"), but not as well as the fighter.
The classes have three ranks offering a specific path to follow, rather than allowing the player to specialize his or her character. These promotions are required for a character to advance in both skills and the equipment they are allowed to use.
Vital Statistics
All character classes have the same basic set of statistics: Strength (STR), Dexterity (DEX), Endurance (END), Intelligence (INT) and Spirit (SPR). STR determines a character's ability to inflict damage against monsters and other players in guild wars. DEX determines a character's accuracy as well as their ability to dodge most physical attacks. END determines the defense of a character, block rate, and maximum HP. INT determines a character's magical offensive potential, whereas SPR affects 2 aspects of any character, including potential to achieve critical hits with regular attacks and skills/techniques, and the size of their SP, which is used for all active skills and techniques.
Though each stat receives an increase according to the player's class (Fighters, for example, receive more STR and END per level up than Mages) with each new level gained, all characters receive one bonus stat point at level one and at each level gained thereafter that may be added to any of the primary stats that the player desires.
Skills
There are three kinds of skills in Fiesta. First, active skills, skills that are used in combat. Second, passive skills, which boost specific attributes, such as the evasion potential of an Archer or the Spirit pool of a Cleric. Third, miscellaneous skills that every class can acquire which include mining, mount riding and item crafting skills.
An interesting aspect is the Empower Skill ability. This may be used to empower certain facets of any particular active skill, such as reducing its cooldown time or increasing its damage potential.
Money
The monetary units are copper, silver, gold and gem. Copper is the least valuable form of currency, followed by silver, then gold, and lastly gem, the most valuable. 1000 Copper is worth 1 siver. 1000 silver is worth 1 gold, and 100 gold is worth 1 gem. You can earn money from various sources: selling loots, using skills such as mining, or completing quests.
Titles
Titles are little "names" given to a player which they can then apply to the beginning of their name. eg. "popular" which is given to a player when they have a certain amount of people on their friends list, or "monster joke punchline" which is given to a player when they are killed by the same monster 10 times in a row.
Guilds
Guilds in Fiesta are a group of players banded together under a name. Currently, any number of guilds can declare war on a given guild, but a given guild can only declare one war itself. There is also no limit to the location of a war between guilds; once a war has begun, all maps become 'fields of honor', regardless if said map is a town, dungeon or a regular explorable area. To initiate a guild war, interested guilds issue a challenge to other guilds. also the great guilds don't war others they help weaker players instead of killing them
Player versus player (PvP)
There are free PvP areas in each of the towns. Characters of all levels can enter these areas. The battle system is an all out free for all, unless players are in a party. Parties are able to go into the PvP zones. Level restricted areas have also been added, and are accessible from various areas within the game through battle guards.
Be advised to read the ToS before entering PvP. Although you can kill other players there are still rules to how it can and cannot be done; for instance spawn killing is generally considered harassment.
