What’s in a box?

March 10, 2009

What’s in a box? – Well obviously that depends on what box you are talking about, but this entry is all about Mystery Boxes! (Many of you already know about Mystery Boxes, but this is primarily for those who do not!)

Mystery boxes look like:

Mystery Boxes

At first glance, they may not seem like the most appropriate thing to buy to enhance your pet’s life, but each box contains a surprise!
So when you buy one of these boxes from the store, and go home and place it on the floor of a room, your pet will open it (as if it were a present) and a random item will appear. The item could be furniture, a plant, clothes, a D.I.Y. item, a toy or even food! You are always taking a chance when buying a Mystery Box though, as the item inside could be worth the same, more, or less than the purchase price of the box and there is no guarantee you will want the item you find; but for many people, opening Mystery Boxes is a large part of their game!

There are three Mystery Boxes available, the Red Mystery Box, which costs 50 coins, the Blue Mystery Box, which costs 200 coins and the Golden Mystery Box, which costs 500 coins! Most of the time the different boxes contain different items, however there is some overlap (for example you could find a Robot in either the Blue Mystery Box or the Golden Mystery Box). In general though, you can find higher value items in the more expensive boxes.

Another thing that you should know about Mystery Boxes is that there are some items released in Pet Society that are known as ‘Mysterious Items’. These items are ones that have never been available in the normal stores, but can only be found in Mystery Boxes! Mysterious items will only appear in their allocated boxes (whether it is the Red Mystery Box, the Blue Mystery Box or the Golden Mystery Box); we will not spoil the surprise of which items can be found in which boxes, but will leave that for you to discover! Some examples of current mysterious items waiting to be found are:

Whether for a clock or a shamrock, it is time to shop!

March 9, 2009

Hey Pet Society fans! Our weekly item release has just occurred, so to buy some brand new items, sign onto Pet Society on either Facebook or MySpace now!

This week, we are introducing the Playfish Clock, which can be found in the Furniture Store! This is different to all other clocks currently in the game as it runs on Playfish time (as opposed to your local computer’s time). It is a 24 hour digital clock, so you can tell when midnight Playfish time is approaching (so you can be certain of when the new day starts for lottery, visiting and races). Playfish time is based upon Greenwich Mean Time (GMT)! GMT is not affected by daylight savings, so if/when your local area changes their clocks for daylight savings, remember that this will mean your Pet Society day will reset at a different time according to your local timezone!
