Each player starts by building a custom “ThumBuddy.” A Thumbuddy is an avatar that visitors use to explore the Twiz.com site and interact with one another. Once a visitor has customized their Thumbuddy, they can explore the TWiz.com site and interact with other ThumBuddies. Thumbuddies interact on the site by playing games, sending greetings, with limited chatting, and/or by using a set of predefined actions. By playing games, players earn virtual “currency” that they can use to further customize their avatar. It is in test phase - so comments are welcome from kids and parents alike.
