-The more intuitiv representation of the game can make the game much more easy to learn. To play on one of the servers one only needs to create an account once. Afterwards login is possible from any computer with internet access (with your login data).

-Thus it is possible to introduce new players to the game without the need to install the game and using a rather friendly representation (compared to rougelike games in general).
