Minions of Mirth Review on GameTunnel (http://www.gametunnel.com/articles.php?id=431)
This is the only indie MMO where you can play OFFLINE as well as online. Unlike every game that does the same, in Minions of Mirth you can always be connected to the global chat room. The result is a feeling of community even when there are no other players!
...
The mod-ability means that players have incentive to go out and create things for the game. The player-created content that makes it into the primary server gives a strong sense that an individual player can help shape the world. This makes them act more responsibly in protecting what they have invested time in.
...
It’s one thing to log into Everquest and see thousands of people, none of whom are the least bit interested in talking to you. It is another thing altogether to log into the Prairie Server and see a dozen friendly faces who will literally fight over who gets to answer your questions on how to start.
