Massive World Building With UemeU

Sandbox games are popular among the role-playing set as evidenced by phenomena like Second Life and enjoy mass market appeal as millions of Minecraft players will attest. Fledgling developer Omnigon Games hopes to tap into that creative energy with upcoming sandboxer, UemeU. From what the team showed last week, it's clearly too soon to tell how well UemeU's avatar customization and community tools will function but otherwise, the project definitely shows promise.

Talking Skyforge and F2P With Obsidian

The Secret World: Bee Yourself

Bee Yourself

While doing my regular forum browse on the official forums for The Secret World I came across someone who was looking for a roleplaying group. They laid out their character concept and called it boring. But I don't think it is boring, in fact I think it could possibly be one of the most interesting ideas out there. You see, his character is himself.
