Most online games runs off P2P (pay to play) where all players are forced to pay to play the game. We understand that not all can afford to pay for games, parents not allowing or facing problems paying (ex: no credit card), therefore we at Gamestotal.com unlike other P2P online games try to serve the community by offering free online gaming for everyone.

Running an online game is very costly, and bills have to be paid. That is why we rely on donations to survive. Players who donate can receive certain in-game perks such as high CPU features and such. It is organized in a way to save you time, but at the sametime if you are unable to pay you can still play for free with out any major drawbacks. For certain contactual agreements (ex: with certain banks, since there is no classification as Donator-Account) all those who donated are known as Paid-Account holders, which means `someone who has paid donation`.
