    Version 3.6 is online now if you want to download it and try it out. The toolbar was immediately visible in the last version; in this version, you have to click the "Show" menu item then choose "Toolbar" to see it. Have fun!

    No, there sure isn't... Just Windows. You might try running it through Virtual PC on a Mac, just to get in and see what it's like, but I don't think all of the features will work correctly.

    Can I go in and take a look around even if I'm not a citizen? I don't plan to become one, because I don't have time to build and do all the other stuff a citizen should do, and... ok I admit... I'm not that good when it comes to working with computers but I am curious and I'm getting curiouser and curiouser.....

    Hi Tanya!

    Yes, come on in! It is free to everyone unless they want to build. There are several really cool places inside CASMIRA. I developed a cheesy game called "Orchid Hunt" where you try to find all the colorful cattleyas inside a huge maze with secret doors and puzzles. Anyone can chat and explore for free, just download the browser and pick a user name and start exploring!

    Cheers!

    A good idea! Casmira is really cool, and it's so realistic and beautiful. Just like a "real" world. Even as a tourist, you get to talk to others. There are many wonderful things that people have built there, like the Orchid Hunt . There are also many houses and other architecture that you can check out. Have fun exploring!

    I've downloaded and installed the browser. I tried to do some exploring right after but, oh boy, its like trying to learn how to walk for the first time LOL. This is what happens to someone who never played computer games in her life !!!

    Thanks, Lily! Tanya, if you do learn to walk, do not miss Lily's place; she did an awesome job in building and designing it. Lots of cool effects and interesting places to explore!

    Once this next play I am working on is over, I plan to get back into CASMIRA and start building again. I feel like I have been away from it tooo long!

    Cheers & I hope you do have fun in CASMIRA, Tanya!
