- Second Life is an online virtual world, developed and owned by the San Francisco-based firm Linden Lab and launched on June 23, 2003. It saw rapid growth for some years and in 2013 it had approximately one million regular users; growth stabilized and by the end of 2017 active user count had declined to 'between 800,000 and 900,000'. In many ways, Second Life is similar to massively multiplayer.
- A challenging test of your spatial relations IQ, this unique 3D Maze, by AlmostThere Inventor, is open throughout the week and is changed every Sunday night, with new courses and fun and engaging themes! Persevere and exercise your short-term memory as you race up, down and all around. Can you beat the best time? Prize for finishing the maze.
One of the best alternatives for the game Second Life is the Inworldz game. Most 3-D model web sites do not allow the resale ( even for free) of their models. The usual restrictions typically state that you can upload them to Second Life or Open Sim, but you can never transfer the model to anyone else. This means you can use them in a build or game as long as that game or build is never sold or transferred.
