Oh hey, it's another virtual world for tweens

Tween Brands Inc. and Philadelphia ad agency Red Tettemer have spewed forth yet another tween virtual world, just a few weeks after Disney XD burst onto the scene. This one's dying by design. ScapeNation is your standard build-an-avatar, play-games, win-points world, but with a twist: It's being destroyed by "The Darkness," and it's up to you to save it. When I signed up, ScapeNation assured me that I'll "want to play, like, all the time!" After a few games, I had earned 16 ScapeBucks, but when I went to buy stuff, I found out the merest T-shirt starts at 400! Which made me, like, not want to play at all.
