'''''Yogurting''''' was a Korean [[Massively Multiplayer Online Role Playing Game]] released in 2005.


The story is as follows: you are an [[Ordinary High School Student]] attending either the modern Estiva Academy or the more traditional Yoitsuki Academy. One day, the student body wakes up to find that almost all the teachers are missing, there are strange penguin creatures everywhere, and monsters have infested both campuses. Worse still, every other school aside from Estiva and Yoitsuki has vanished. Even though no lessons are being taught, no-one can relax because of these events. This would come to be known as the Endless Vacation Phenomenon.

Yogurting is notable for its extremely cute graphical style, costume designs and the ease of leveling. However, there is one very big hurdle to playing: it's all in Japanese, and there are very few English guides out there. Prepare to stumble through a ''lot'' of dialogue choices and incomprehensible menu screens when you first start playing. The game also bars any non-Japanese IPs from playing the game, and ''registering'' for the game in the first place is a challenge in itself.

Yogurting was a Korean Massively Multiplayer Online Role Playing Game released in 2005.

The story is as follows: you are an Ordinary High School Student attending either the modern Estiva Academy or the more traditional Yoitsuki Academy. One day, the student body wakes up to find that almost all the teachers are missing, there are strange penguin creatures everywhere, and monsters have infested both campuses. Worse still, every other school aside from Estiva and Yoitsuki has vanished. Even though no lessons are being taught, no-one can relax because of these events. This would come to be known as the Endless Vacation Phenomenon.

Because most of the adults have gone missing (and the rest are clueless), the Absurdly Powerful Student Council rises up to take charge and organize an investigation into the E.V.P.. Meanwhile, the World Trees on both campuses have begun to resonate, opening up a portal to another dimension where a mysterious artifact known as "the antique" is said to reside.

There are four types of weapons that you can use: Blades (swords), Gloves (fists), Mura (headphones) and Spirit (backpacks). Though you can switch between them at will, you can only master two of them; mastering a weapon gives you access to that type's special attacks, skills and passive abilities. Blades and Gloves are best for melee characters, while Mura and Spirit characters focus more on magical attacks and support.

Yogurting was notable for its extremely cute graphical style, costume designs and the ease of leveling. However, there was one very big hurdle to playing: it's all in Japanese, and there are very few English guides out there. There used to be a lot of dialogue choices and incomprehensible menu screens when starting up. The game also barred any non-Japanese IPs from playing the game, and registering for the game in the first place was a challenge in itself.

The Japanese server shut down in May, 2010. In Thailand, servers shut down on March 29, 2011.
