Yesterday, I received an invite to SocioTown’s beta test. SocioTown is a web based 3D Massively Multiplayer Online Social Game (MMOSG) developed by Outside The Box Software and since it’s web-based, it means that you play SocioTown in your browser. There is no client to download and install. The game uses Adobe Shockwave Player which are already available in most browsers and, besides, you can always download and install the player, if your browser doesn’t have it, which is very small.
After going through the character creation process which was very simple, I logged in and found my character in jail. I find it weird for a game like this to have newbies start in jail. While in jail, I had a series of conversation with some NPCs that eventually led to having my character named, my password set and my e-mail confirmed. After that my character was set free. It was just a case of mistaken identity.
