+
+Many of us -or maybe not, but let's assume that- have played at least one
+_MMORPG_ game in our life and we know that it could be _very_ time consuming.
+Level up, going to instances, getting better year… and if you was _hardcore_
+enough: scheduled raids.
+
+As we grow up we notice that the time for this kind of things fade away, but
+you still want to party with friends and get some_purples_. Until I found
+**Tweeria**, that **brilliant idea** of using your twitter posts to interact
+with your _alter-ego_ on a MMORPG world.
+
+!["My
+profile"](profile.png)
+
+It shares some of the features of common MMORPGs but the good part is that
+**we don't need to do anything else that _tweet_**for many of them, so your
+character makes an action for every tweet you post -I think it's not every
+tweet, just a few in a period of time, haven't checked it-. You can defeat
+_NPCs_, loot an item, going onto a dungeon alone… you can even save -or kill
+:P- your friends if you mention or _retweet_ them in your tweets.
+

+raids"](events.png)
+
+However, there are some things that needs user interaction: the raids. You can
+have up to five scheduled raids at the same time but you need to join for it
+manually. However, it's fast and easy: you just need to get into the events
+page and join the event you want. For gear swapping, selling items and buying
+spells you need to interact on the site too. According to the posts you can
+craft items and spells but that part of the game does not work for me, so I
+don't know how it works.
+

+
+Another thing you can do to interact with your character is using spells. For
+that, you need to buy on the market first, and when you have them equipped,
+you can cast one by tweeting `!<spell shortcut>` on a given tweet, the game
+will use it_automagically_.
+
+Oh, did I mention that also have **achievements**?
+
+!["The beautiful
+map"](map.png)
+
+As I've said, it surprised me how the most basic idea can be developed into a
+very enjoyable game. Unlike _ogame_, _travian_, and its brothers, you don't
+need to check the site every minute.
+But to be honest… I tweet more often since I play _Tweeria_.
+
+If you want to check it out [follow this link and join the world of
+tweeria](http://tweeria.com/registration?fmartingr). You'll help me getting an
+achievement! :D
