Games like....Club Penguin, Runescape etc

Lots of people are out there searching for new online multiplayer games to play that are similar to their favourites. I'm compiling a list of Multiplayer games on my Teen Online Games site and I need some help.

Here's an example of what I was thinking of:

puzzle pirates
Players perform pirate tasks by playing a number of puzzle-style minigames.
Cost: subscription
Similar games : club penguin, vmk

Sound useful? If you can suggest similar games to the ones I have on this site and offer suggestions for new games to add to the list that would be great. Just comment in this post.

Also, I'm looking for some more reviews. Played/read/listened to any really great or really sucky games/books/cds lately? Click on the Write a review link at the right and tell us all about it.

Cheers, Maryanne

Music - Journeyman by Scott Harrell

Rate the cd: 8

Cool CD. I really like the song, "Two Faced Man." I think that song would sound really cool if a woman sang it. "Love Came To Town" is great too. "A.I." is like a song from the 80s or something. It's got this spiritual edge to it which is really cool, and it's got a great rock too! Get this CD. It rocks!

Books - City of the beasts by Isabel Allende

Teenager, Alex Cold, is sent to stay with his feisty old grandmother whilst his mother is ill in hospital. Kate takes Alex with her when she joins an expedition to the dangerous and remote world of the Amazon rainforest. In her ususal style, Isobel Allende has written an entrancing description of their journey up the Amazon river. We are introduced to the magic and romance of the forest in this wonderfully evocative and beautifully told adventure.
