OGPlanet has announced that Tales Runner's first beta test starts today, March 20, in North America.

The servers will be officially open at 12:00 PM PST / 20:00 GMT, but players can sing up for a free OGPlanet account at any time on Tales Runner's website.

Tales Runner is a casual racing massively multiplayer online game that presents a set of unique gameplay features, allowing its players to compete against friends and enemies on a multitude of tracks based on various fairy tales such as Jack and the Bean Stalk, Alice in Wonderland and many others.

Aside from intense races, players can also simply hang out in the Park, socializing with their friends and making new ones, or head over to their farm and tend their crops and raise their pets.

Tales Runner's first beta will take off with a host of exciting events for players to take part in, casual and hardcore players alike being able to win tons of awesome prizes.

Additionally, by simply taking part in the racing MMO's first beta test, players will receive bonus prizes that they will be able to redeem once the full game launches, sometime later this spring.

The game features bright and cheerful worlds of wonder, offering gamers the change to take part in fast-paced races they can enjoy with their friends. The wonderful in-game world is a place where many popular fairy tales come to life, and players can challenge their friends in multiple game modes across thematic tracks.

Tales Runner features a challenging PvE environment, where everyone can play against various magical enemies and confront epic bosses from tales known all across the world, either teaming up in order to raise to the challenge or compete in intense PvP scenarios.

The racing MMO features intense 8-player races, relays and even team matches for pre-made or ad hoc groups, and for the most elite of gamers, there is also a Survival Mode where skills will truly be put to the test.

Apart from its core gameplay elements, Tales Runner also features a host of mini-games that allow users to take a break from the intense races and enjoy some casual and fun games such as jeopardy quizzes, fortune tellers and many more.

Players can even raise their pets and then enter them into races to see who has the fastest four-legged speed machine, pitting them against other players' pets to see whose is the fastest.

The beta starts today and takes place between March 20 and April 3.
