Hello Kitty's New Online Virtual World

by Terrence O'Brien on February 14, 2008 at 05:25 PM

Hello Kitty Gets Online World
Are you a fan of 'World of Warcraft' but wish it was a little bit cuter? Then check out 'Hello Kitty Online.' That's right, the ambassador of all things cute and Japanese is getting her own Massively Multiplayer Online Role Playing Game or MMORPG.

Currently the online world is in a "closed beta testing phase", meaning it's not yet open to the public, but it should be officially opened very shortly. Like every other MMORPG, in 'Hello Kitty Online' you create a character or avatar to represent you in the virtual world and interact with other players. You'll be able to wander around the Flower Kingdom, London, Paris, Moscow and other places playing mini-games, talking to players, and building the virtual world as you go along.

"...there are many activities for players to choose from. Aside from the monster-filled adventure areas, players can dig for ore in a mine, or range the forests to pick fruit from trees. Farming allows you to plant, grow and harvest your own crops..." say the people from Kelly Kitty Online.

And that's just a small taste. The game promises countless activities and boundless cuteness. We can only say one thing about this game -- Awwww.
