Keyclone is a tool for multiboxing in games, most notably wow. In this keyclone review I’ll look at whether keyclone is worth your money and how it compares to other multiboxing software available.
Keyclone is one of the older multiboxing applications, before much of the newer software. This shows when you run keyclone for the first time. The UI is somewhat archaic and feels unintuitive. After opening up the software I felt like I would need to read a setup guide to have any idea how to use the software.
Pwnboxer is another popular multiboxing application. Read our review of it here.
I was really looking forward to checking out keyclone’s UI before writing this keyclone review, but I was disappointed. Keyclone’s more complex UI also makes it feel more advanced with more options available to the user than some other multiboxing software. But many of these options feel unnecessary and I had to google many of these options to find out what they do. Keyclone doesn’t feel like it was designed with modern multiboxing in mind, with a lot more configuration then is really necessary for most games, including world of warcraft.
When writing this keyclone review I also looked at the update history and the status of the software development. While many multiboxing programs are updated weekly, or monthly, keyclone has not been updated since July of 2009, which shows that development is not very active, and any bugs in the software will likely remain. That also means that the money from your purchase is not going towards continued updates, and rather towards a product at the end of its lifecycle.
Setting up keyclone took me longer then I now expect with multiboxing software, having written multiple reviews for this type of software besides this keyclone review. I felt the process of setting up a team wasn’t that well documented. Once in game I experienced a number of strange bugs that took me hours to work out which seemed to require a uninstall and reset of my settings to fix.
However, after I got multiboxing away, the software performed well enough, but it still doesn’t feel up to date with newer multiboxing applications like pwnboxer, which offer a simpler user interface and new features perfect for multiboxing in this day and age. In conclusion, after writing this keyclone review, this is how I feel. If you are looking for a simple multiboxing app that gives you the features you need without going overboard, Keyclone is not what you are looking for. This app feels overcomplicated and outdated in this day and age. If you are a new multiboxer you may want to look at more modern multiboxing tools.
