Metatropolis is a public building world owned by AWI. COFMeta stands for Circle of Fire Metatropolis. The world is heavily influenced by the novel Snow Crash by Neal Stephenson, which describes a large and heavily populated Metaverse. Although Metatropolis doesn't have the bustling population of the Metaverse, it does feature some notable locations from it, including "The Street" and the Black Sun lounge.

History

COFMeta was created in 1996 by Circle of Fire, now known as Active Worlds, Inc. Metatropolis today is a sparsely populated world, with builders and visitors few in numbers. The world did once have a thriving community, though, and even its own EZBoard community.
