SaferKid says:

“PLEASE NOTE: In the interest of safety for all of our users, Avakin requires you to be at least 17 years old to register and play Enter Avakin Life: the life simulation game for meeting new people, chatting with friends, and exploring an ever-growing virtual 3D world. Create and design your own 3D avatar along with your avatar's apartment.”

Finally, VirtualWorldforAdults http://virtualworldsforadults.com/ chimes in…

“Talking away in this game is incredibly easy to do. Anyone who loves socialization will adore this feature, obviously. It is simple and it does the job without making the chat feel awkward or feel as if it is not complete in some way.

There is no need to feel as if Avakin Life is finished. While the game certainly feels complete, it has a lot more to offer. The game is always being updated so that you do not have to go a day without something new or some type of improvement. Anyone playing this game can enjoy these regular updates, loving the steady improvements and additions that the developers are bringing to the game. They keep the game entertaining and running smoothly so that, at no point, do you feel that the game is somehow lacking.”

As with all virtual worlds for adults “the buyer beware”. Protect your resources. Protect you identity. And above all protect yourself.
