Purge is an online-only PC computer game. It is a hybrid First-Person-Shooter / Role-Playing-Game set in the near future accounting a war between the diametrically opposed forces of science-fiction (the Order) and fantasy (the Chosen). Technology versus magic. Science versus religion. It is a great divine war, where followers pray for intervention from the extraterrestrial deity Evod or the supernatural deity Mabus. Originally released in 2002, Freeform Interactive has now officially made Purge a free game.
FreeForm Interactive have abandoned their purge project, purge is now run entirely by the community. purge-underground is the only purge server left.

Critical reception
Both Gamespot and IGN rated Purge as "mediocre".[1][2] IGN highlighted detailed environments with well-defined textures and impressive effects, and it was argued that Purge was a notable example within the "character development" niche of action genre. Criticisms included indistinct vocal commands, some unsuitable weapon sound effects, a "practically nonexistent" playing community, lack of game modes and unpolished level design.

Ultimately, this action title is basic and bland, a testament to cliched design and rudimentary play mechanics.
