Halloween Updates

Halloween is right around the corner. Both Poptropica and AQ Worlds already have some cool Halloween stuff to do.

On Poptropica, they set up a little stall on Main Street. You can get Halloween costumes there.

There’s a witch costume, a mummy costume, a vampire costume and a pumpkin hat.

You can also sign up to receive an e-mail when Nabooti Island is released by clicking this button:

On AQ Worlds, they made a whole new area called Mystcroft. It’s a small village that only appears on ‘Mogloween’.

There’s a vampire queen who sells you rare items. To buy most of them though, you need to help the three witches – Bubble, Toil and Trouble – by completing their quests. There are also lots of new monsters, such as ghosts, man-eating pumpkins, and even a new boss monster – Blister. He has a chainsaw that – if you are lucky – he might drop after you defeat him. That’s not the only free item though; there is also pumpkin armour, a sword made out of vines and a pretty cool cape! (There are probably more, but I haven’t found them yet.) Here are a few pictures:

Mystcroft be here till November the 10th, so enjoy it while it lasts.

Also, Automattic (the company that owns WordPress) has bought the site ‘PollDaddy’. It’s an awesome site that makes polls. Loads of people use it, including PC World, RTÉ and Fox. Anyway, the guys over at Automattic made a new poll feature for WordPress. So I decided to make my own poll, just to see how it works.

That’s all for now!

AQ Worlds

Sorry I haven’t posted lately.

Before I begin, let me thank Spurs for telling me about this game.
The game is called AdventureQuest Worlds. It’s a new MMO that’s just after coming out of Beta. There are a few glitches, but nothing too big.

You’re able to fight monsters to gain Experience points, Reputation points and, of course, gold. You can spend the gold on new weapons, weapon upgrades (when your level increases) armour, helmets, and other things.

There are also quests you can do. Find a NPC and click the ‘!’ above their head to see if they have one for you. Completing quests gets you XP/REP points, lots of gold, and for some of the bigger quests, different rewards such as armour or pets.

You can buy membership on it too, which lets you buy special armour, cool pets and other awesome stuff. Members also get to chat. Non-members will be able to chat eventually, but right now the servers are too weak to handle it, and they don’t have enough mods to control everyone yet. You also get Member Coins when you buy membership, which you can spend on ultra-rare items. I’d save my coins up though – I’ve heard a rumor that you will be able to buy space upgrades later.

I don’t have anything bad to say about the game, other than the space. You’re only allowed up to 20 items in your inventory, which is really irritating for someone like me who wants to collect everything.

Try it out for yourself! It’s really fun. My favourite item is the Giant Lollipop.

That’s all for now!

PS: I wrote a Mission 9 guide on my Club Penguin Mission Guide page, in case any of you are interested.

Moshi Monsters

Ok, this isn’t really a game review, but  I’d like to tell you guys about a cool game called Moshi Monsters.

Please click here to sign up. For every person who signs up using that link I get 30 coins.

In Moshi Monsters, you get to adopt a monster & care for it. You can buy stuff too, such as furniture for your house, disgusting food to keep your monster’s health up, or clothes for your monster. There aren’t many games to play right now, but you start off with quite a bit of money.

You can also attract Moshlings (pets for your monster) by planting flowers in your garden. If you want some flower combinations just ask.

You can make friends with other monsters to make your Friends Tree get bigger, and leave messages on their notice boards so you can keep in touch.

There are a lot of other fun things to do that I ahven’t listed. Why not find out for yourself and sign up?

Don’t forget to read the Poptropica post and Dragon Cave Update below this too!

That’s all for now!

In other news: I haven’t updated about the new catalog on Club Penguin because a moderator banned me for no apparent reason & didn’t tell me why, so I’m not even bothering to use my spare penguin at the moment. I’ll probably post about it sometime tomorrow when I’m unbanned.

That’s all for now!
