Wild Ones!

As many people may know, there is a game on Facebook named "Wild Ones", and its named that for a good reason. On this game, you must try to blow up your enemy before they can blow you up. there are many different weapons you can choose from too. You can use a bees nest, a grenade(regular, bouncy, or tornado), a missile launcher, fireball, nuke, slime ball, etc. Sometimes, you might get in situations where you can not do much because everyone is stuck. This is exactly what you do not want to happen.
But, other times, when you blow up as many people as you can, you could end up on top and winning. Hard work does pay off!!

Zach's Virtual world



The second Virtual world I went on was called Our world. This world is kinda hard game to learn how to play there is one side you have to pay for and the other side is free. This game is safe to a extent the rules say not to give out personal information, but it really doesn't in force the rule. It is a very fun game though.

Right now I only have this room and I bought the bed.

Sorority Life is a free game you can join with Facebook. Your actually a sorority sister in a sorority. When you first join you will have a big sister where you can type questions to ask for help. To become a big sister, you have to pass level 20. When you are on a tab and you unsure about something, you press the “What’s this” button.
As you organize more events, you can pass more levels. You can buy boyfriends and go on dates with them. You unlock new hair, clothes and shoes as you gain levels.
Its very easy to sign up and get going quickly! All you have to do when you sign up is make a nickname and pick your clothing. The cool thing about sorority life is you never have to log in to your account. You only have to log onto your Facebook account.
you can even have a sweetheart!

Swan- World of Warcraft

World of Warcraft is an online game in which you can play as many different types of characters and you can free-rome anywhere you want. in the beginning of the game, you choose who you want to be, like if you want to be a human, dwarf, night-elf, etc. Then you can choose what type of person you want to be, like if you want to be a warrior, hunter, a wizard or something.

When you enter the world, you start off like everyone else. In the middle of nowhere. In this game you must find your way around, complete different quest, gain experience points, and get to a high level of ranking. The higher your level is, the more people want to know you, but in a way they also fear you a small bit.

In World of Warcraft, there are many different strange creatures that you can fight.








But, when you are not able to defeat your enemies, you then die and become a spirit. You then must float back to your body to a spot near where you have died.
