This update brings you a ton of new content to have fun with! Grab a new giant cat mount and prowl the countryside. The summer is heating up so grab a new swimsuit and head into the water to see our new swimming mechanics. Head to a new game called Trials of the Ancients and pit your skills against various puzzles for treasure rewards. Check the new discount platforms brought to you by ibid2SAVE.com where you can save 40% on almost every item!
Trials of the Ancients![]
Click the "Play Games" button on your map to visit a new game area called the Trials of the Ancients. Apparently the Cephalons have seen your struggles trying to get to the Chieftains Treasure Ship, so they decided to create a series of puzzles to help you hone your skills before attempting the Temple of Suul. Each puzzle has a reward room full of various treasures to sell or show off, with a new chance for an item after every trial completion.
New Mounts[]
Somehow the owner at The Stables has been able to tame giant cats to the point where they won't attack all the pretty horses there. There are various large cat choices from tigers and lions to snow leopards and panthers. Prowl the neighborhood like never before. Also, there are 2 new horse mounts for sale for Player Points, the mule and the rare "Pancho the Mule". Better get some treasure in the Trials and start saving...
ibid2SAVE Discount Platforms[]
There are four mini-stores on each corner of the Hub now that are sponsored by ibid2SAVE.com. Ibid2SAVE wants to save you money both on their site and ours. Find an item you like on these platforms and grab a 40% discount from the original purchase price!
Expressions[]
Expressions are a new type of animation found in your animation list. These animations are able to be used while already performing other animations such as sitting, riding mounts, dancing, etc. All of the tool use animations have been converted to this type as well for a smoother transition while running and swinging them.
Swimming is Here![]
It's been a long time coming, but we regret to say that you can no longer run along the bottom of the ocean. Not only can you swim wherever there is water, you can look stylish doing it with a fresh selection of swimsuits in Island Apparel on Volcano Island!
Mysterious Eggs Have Hatched[]
All of the "Mysterious Egg"s that you have been finding in the Easter egg hunt have now hatched! Inside each egg is one of 3 new stuffed animals. I hope you didn't count your chickens before they hatched as these items are not available anywhere else. Congratulations if you kept your eggs!
New Kitchenware[]
A large variety of kitchenware is available in Essentials and can also be purchased all at once via a web-only package available at the website. From knives and pots to pans and cutting boards, it's all here!
