Web Earth Online was a multi-user Internet based game that was played in the 2000’s starting around 2002. The game worked on all the major web browsers, and in 2023 Microsoft removed the last web browser that supported the game, which ended game play as the player community had come to know it. Today the game lives on as a book in paperback, ebook and audio book format.

The game was described as:

In Web Earth Online you will play in a world of great natural beauty, wonder and danger. In this world you will have the opportunity to experience life as animals of many different species. You will experience many of the challenges that each animal faces in their quest for survival and the propagation of their species. Best of all you will play with other people from all around the world, who pose as friends and adversaries alike. In the beginning your cumulative score will be zero and your selection of animal species to play will be quite limited. As you accumulate points you will be allowed to play more and more species of animals, each one progressively more powerful and complex than the preceding one.
