GoJiyo<\/strong> was Godrej’s 3D virtual world for young Indians, launched in 2010 and pitched as India’s own version of Second Life. This article covers what GoJiyo was, how it worked, and which virtual worlds you can explore today if you are looking for that kind of experience.<\/p>\n

\"Godrej<\/p>\n

Quick answer:<\/strong> GoJiyo was a 3D online virtual world built by the Godrej Group in 2010 as a youth marketing platform. Users created an avatar, customised clothes and accessories, made friends and earned virtual rewards. If you want a similar experience today, Second Life is still running, and Roblox, Minecraft and VRChat are the most popular virtual worlds.<\/p>\n

      In March 2010, Godrej announced GoJiyo with teaser promos promising “a world where flying, teleportation and time travel are routine”. A countdown on the site counted down to launch, and preregistration was open. It looked like a Second Life<\/a> for India, and we wondered whether it would replace Second Life as the favourite virtual destination for Indian youth.<\/p>\n
