Mixed
Results vary across runescape.com: of 9 URLs tested, 3 are blocked and 6 load normally. The Great Firewall silently drops its packets so requests time out. 420 tests have been run under this domain since 2011-03-18, the most recent on 2026-07-03.
The two are filtered by different means — an unencrypted request by the address and keywords it carries in the clear, an encrypted one by the server name in its TLS handshake — so one working while the other does not is normal.

Plain HTTP and HTTPS differ here: http://runescape.com is not blocked, https://runescape.com is blocked. The two are filtered by different means — an unencrypted request by the address and keywords it carries in the clear, an encrypted one by the server name in its TLS handshake — so one working while the other does not is normal.
A VPN or another circumvention tool routes the request outside mainland China, past the filtering that blocks runescape.com. GreatFire runs GreatFire VPN; the Analyzer also tests the domains of many VPN and proxy providers, so you can check whether one is reachable before relying on it.
