You can’t become a resident on ourWorld without purchasing a residency card or paying the yearly subscription fee and upgrading your account. OurWorld is a virtual world comprised of a range of online games and activities. Each player gets an avatar which they can decorate by buying gems or using a coupon code. An in-game currency, called "Flow” is earned through interacting and talking with other gamers, drinking, eating, dancing, and playing games. Players exchange Flow for experience points and coins, which are used to quantify the player’s progression through the game.
Players can purchase in-game "gems”, which along with the coins are used to buy clothing, accessories and furniture for their avatar. As players progress through the game and earn more experience points, they earn prizes such as dance moves, access to new areas, vehicles and privileges. As well as building up their own presence within the virtual world, players can interact and communicate with each other, request friendship, gift items, create groups, send and receive mail, participate in competitions and give "hearts”.
Residents have more privileges than standard players, known as tourists, such as access to restricted areas, more clothing and furniture, free gems (150 monthly or 1800 if you sign up for a year), and monthly items. It is not possible to become a resident without paying, but if you are over 13 and have a Facebook account, you will also receive further privileges within ourWorld. Upgrading your account will cost you £5.99/$9.99 per month or £49.99/$80.00 per year. The website entices new users to join the existing community of 30 million players, and invites people to play games, meet people and look good.
