Kwari is a first-person shooter multiplayer online game developed by Micro Forté[1] and released by Kwari Ltd. on January 7, 2008.

Kwari is free to download but requires players to spend real money to buy ammunition and other in-game items. Players can earn money by killing other players and holding a certain item (called "the pill") at the end of the game but lose money when being hit or killed.[2][3][4]

Kwari received negative reviews on release, with GamesRadar+ giving it 2 stars out of 5, criticizing game's technical aspects and the business model by saying it sets most players up to lose money.[3]
