Virtual Magic Kingdom - Sneak Preview Beta!

My pleasure. It was quite the fire sale. I hope you enjoy the game.

I know it's only a beta but I just don't have the interest to continue. After about two hours of exploring all that's really left is interacting with the other guests and the developers have done everything they can think of to kill off interaction. With the rooms that go poof the second the owner leaves to the silly vocabulary limits it's just not a fun site to hang. Today I noticed that they have banned such naughty words as: To, Too, Won, and apparently ALL punctuation. Seesch.

I let my nine year old play for a bit and even she was soon both board and frustrated with the language thing. I expect this will be a very safe environment due mainly to the fact that soon no one will be playing it.

Well just to update you on your fire sale effects....

My two older kids have fully furnished rooms. I took the jungle cruise teleporters and now have instant access into my daughter's room (not that I didn't before). She thinks that is cool right now, I'm sure she'll hate it later. My son, the sweetie, tried to give me stuff in exchange and was so excited when I told him "no just take this free of trade". He did a little happy dance for me.

Then.......I heard nothing from the kids for about 2 hours as they decorated theirs rooms and played games. They were quite unhappy with me when I told them their computer time had been all used up and then some. (Bummer, I enjoyed the quiet...the two younger kids were sleeping at the time.)

Thanks again!

I've located all the Mickeys, decorated several rooms*, and am now quite bored with it all. I'll check back to see what they do with Tomorrowland (anyone else find it ironic that it doesn't have anything but Star Traders in it?) and Frontierland. I still think it's a great concept, but they'll have to jazz it up and free up the verbiage if they want to make a go of it.

*One of my rooms is the Fortress of Tomorrow.
