Amazing World is an interesting idea, and one that I can honestly say I enjoy almost completely. Despite being a child's MMO game, it has enough in it to interest most MMO fans, at least to a certain degree.

Originally, I downloaded this game on my sister's laptop to see if she would enjoy it (she didn't really have anything except The Sims 2 & 3). We were both instantly drawn in to the cutesy style and well-designed world that the game presented, and played it for a day straight, max-leveling one of the accouts we made to the highest non-pay level. Once we got back home, I downloaded it on THIS steam account to see if the multiplayer worked. Amazing World is similar to Skyrim in that you cannot play it for just a few minutes, at least if you enjoy the game. Whilst I initally only went on to try the multiplayer, I ended up completing a full character story and earning about 6000 coins!

Speaking of characters, all are well-voiced and each have their own personalities. While I won't list them all, the best by far were Annoying (a navi-like little probe robot with a very teenage-girl-like attitude and style of speech) and Brick (a carpenter who sees himself as fearless but gets scared very easily). Whilst some are locked until levels higher than 10, the ones that we have had a chance to meet are charming and well-made.

Overall, whilst I do enjoy the game, I always feel a bit awkward playing it seperately to my sister (since we spent a while playing it on the same device at the same time). It's worth at least an hour or two of play even if you don't like anything about it. As my sister said, "it's Moshi Monsters, but better".
