Second Life Review

Second Life is a free to play 3D social game by Linden Lab, which has a bold mission. To create a second, virtual life, so that players can realize their dreams, enjoy new alternatives and explore opportunities of connecting their virtual with their real world lives. So, what’s happening in Second Life that may be worthy of your attention?

Second Life surely has a couple of unique characteristics that distinguish the title from anything you have experienced in the online gaming genre. The most important one is the environment and your surroundings. Everything you see or experience in Second Life has been created by another player, so the game world is actually what the players have created. This alone provides a new dynamic game dimension, a continuously evolving environment, based on the player’s preferences and in-game choices, and almost unlimited customization opportunities. With total freedom and thousands of players online, you will have the opportunity to explore the vast environments, meet with new people, engage in various activities, some of them possibly connecting with the real world, and trade various items and services. The game’s currency, Linden dollars, can be traded with US dollars at a current rate of approximately 250 Linden dollars to 1 USD.

Certainly an innovative title with endless customization options and trading elements that depend on the user’s creativity boundaries, Second Life is an online gaming “experiment” that will surely be around for long and will most possibly continue to evolve as long as new technologies are successfully adopted in order to provide a more immersive and engaging game experience.
