A funny and fun browser experience with players you can talk to around the map but; the combat is basically automatic, the game has very few active players, it hasn't received much development in years, and the game is very short. While there are better alternatives, back in 2012 this game was one of a kind and to this day, is pretty cool and overall well polished. If you've got nothing else to do, maybe give this one a try.

What is Browser Quest?
BrowserQuest (2012) is a Massively Multiplayer Online Role-Playing Game [MMORPG] designed by game developer Little Workshop for client Mozilla Foundation, to demonstrate their-at that time- new HTML5 and WebSockets web technology, which allowed for efficient Multiplayer gaming on a browser. The overall objective of BrowserQuest is to defeat the boss: the deathly Skeleton King from the depths of the Volcanic Mountains. Compared to other MMORPGs, the game world is relatively small, and the game's overall objective can be completed in less than an hour of gameplay, with the twenty achievements able to be completed in an additional hour. The game contains twenty obtainable achievements, six wearable armor, seven weapons, twelve different enemies and three different consumables.
There are three different variants of the game: the original version of BrowserQuest created by Little Workshop developers Franck and Guillaume Lecollinet at http://browserquest.mozilla.com/ ;the other version with automatically moving enemies at http://browserquest.herokuapp.com// ; and the downloadable BrowserQuest Extended created by Mads and Peter Sandberg Brun for Windows 8 and newer.
