Ī major part of the content in Twinity is user-generated. Twinity uses 3D mapping data by Tele Atlas, which makes the virtual buildings resemble their look in the real world. Screen space ambient occlusion and glow shader effects finish the final look in the post-rendering. This includes such engine features as normal, specular and cube maps. Twinity uses next-generation texturing technologies to deliver a graphically up-to-date visual experience that can be compared to the latest game releases in the industry. Within Twinity, an achievement system is offered, which allows users to earn profile badges related to the categories: travel, lifestyle and living. Additionally, a real estate agency can be found on the Twinity homepage where the Twinizens can localize an apartment of their choice. Users can create their own furniture or purchase pre-made items from the shops in Twinity. Starting fall 2010, all users are given starter apartments that they can furnish and decorate themselves.

Twinity is based both on professional and user-generated content. The users can also gain Globals by attending virtual contests and events, use SponsorPay or finish the welcome tour that they are offered upon registration. Globals can be bought with credit card on the homepage, with PayPal or through Mopay. With the Globals, the Twinizens can buy clothes, furniture items, animations and pay for their own virtual apartment. The virtual currency used in Twinity is called "Globals".

Photofit allows a user to upload a real photo, which it then adapts to the measurements of an avatar face, making it resemble a picture.

Twinity members represent themselves in the world where they can use their real names and create an avatar that can be customized in different ways, including the usage of a special Photofit application. World Īvatar created with Photofit Avatar customization On June 8, 2012, the acquisition of Twinity by ExitReality was announced. All of the game's cities were removed in January 2012. In this respect, Twinity seems to be moving towards a Second Life-like world with more innovative features that they set up within the game, since much of user-created content is fictional and is not related to real addresses of shops and apartments. However, the company has recently begun to shift the focus away from a mirror world towards a more fantasy-oriented environment with locations like the Isle of Palmadora. Twinity is the first 3D online virtual world to incorporate true-to-scale replicas of large cities from all over the world. Twinity is built on BigWorld Technology and its economy is based on a free-to-play model. A public beta began in September 2008, with the release of the first virtual city, Berlin, which later was followed by Singapore, London, Miami and New York. The game offers its population, called Twinizens, to navigate around virtual (historical) versions of real-world cities, also called a mirror world or a Metaverse. Initially developed by Metaversum GmbH, it is currently held by ExitReality.
