Archmage

Archmage was a wildly successful browser-based MMORPG, where the player plays a mage resurrected from the depths of hell and commands vast armies with magical and mundane elements. The original was created by MARI, but this company has stopped supporting the game. There are some fan made recreations of the Archmage: for example The Reincarnation (http://www.the-reincarnation.com/) and The Five Pillars (http://t5p.jaggu.org/).

Although a pioneer into the MMORPG world, it has since been outclassed by more advanced browser-based games such as the Java-enabled Runescape.
