iLand game could get you your own private island
iLand is premiering on AOL in the spring of ‘08. This game could get you your own private island. The competition starts in front of your computer and ends on a deserted paradise. It all revolves around creating a solid online social network, before you have to create an alliance on the beach. You start the game by creating an online profile and playing some games. Win enough challenges and you could be sent to a remote tropical island with only a laptop, wireless access, and help from your online friends. The online audience decides who will join you and what to give you — supplies (useful or not) and advice (helpful or not). As the island community grows, the audience picks their top iLanders to compete in an ultimate challenge to to win the island.
With Survivor and Amazing Race still getting strong numbers and social networks like MySpace and Facebook still holding onto their popularity, iLand could be a an actual winner for AOL.
