Late last September of 2011, a strong typhoon hit the country leaving Roxas Boulevard flooded and this is probably the first time that this incident has ever happened. What contributed to the flooding is how the seawall along Manila Bay area was constructed.

I’ve played this game for a few months and I still play occasionally when in the can, before sleeping or simply to check on my friends in game. This game is very simplistic in nature. You level by earning experience points killing monsters inside dungeons.
