Free Realms

I have recently signed up for Free Realms, the free online game, where you can create your own character and go on adventures.

I created a character of my own, and tried it out. This online game requires Adobe Flash Player 9 or above, and needs to be installed on your computer. If your computer is old and does not display graphics well, then I suggest you do not download it.

When creating a Free Realms account, you first get to create an avatar. You have the choice of being a female human, male human, female pixie, or male pixie. I chose the female pixie. You are able to dress up your character with clothing you are given. If you are a pixie, you can choose certain kinds of wings. You also have the choice of face paintings, hair styles, eye color and face shape.

Free Realms does not ask you for much personal information when signing up. They ask you for your birthday and E-Mail address.

Installment does not take long at all. It took me about 5 minutes. It all depends on how fast your PC is. It's OK to install this program. It's very safe, you wont catch any bugs in your computer.

When you first sign up you are allowed to roam around a "Playground" and you may explore while the websites prepare all of the graphics, games, etc. When the website has finished loading, you will be taken to a certain place. You will most likely see a large amount of other people. Some will have odd creatures following them, such as a unicorn. Others will have dogs, cats, or even horses. These different things can be bought with "Station Cash."

Station Cash is used as special money in Free Realms. This special money is used to buy clothing, pets, vehicles, etc. Station Cah is obtained a certain way- You can either buy it with a credit card or Paypal account, or you can buy a "Station Cash Card" at a local store. You are given 250 Station Cash at the beginning of your Free Realms adventure.

Station Cash is just a special type of money in Free Realms. Coins, however, can also be used in Free Realms.
Coins can be used to buy things that are not as rare as other items.

A membership is important to Free Realms. To properly enjoy playing this game, you should buy a membership. A membership is used to buy things that will make you seem more sophisticated on FR. For example, a Parrot could cost 10,000 coins to purchase, but you need a membership to buy it. A membership costs $5.00.


Free Realms has many features to enjoy, and I strongly encourage you to download it.
