Favourite Facebook apps (part I)
Monday, April 13th, 2009
I have three favourite Facebook applications that I play almost religiously. The first one I want to tell you about is Pet Society (although, it was my 2nd app added out of the three, but its become my favourite). Click the pictures below for larger images…
Pet Society is all about a little pet that you create (I created Tails – and cuter mouse you couldnt find!). You choose ears, eyes, eyebrows, markings, colour, and clothing for it (some items unlock after your pet is created, then you have to purchase further upgrades). Then you proceed to give it a life similar to that of a King. You can buy luxury furniture, extra clothing, food, techno gadgets and more! And best of all, every week new stuff gets released, so there’s always something to pique your interest. Holidays bring out the themed items (limited edition).
The best and easiest way to earn $$ is to visit friends. These have to be people on your friends list who have added the app and created a pet (they neednt look at the app again, their pet wont die). I have a “Pet Society” friends list which is rather limited in regards to info they can see on my page. But, after 49 pets, your $$ per visit drops from $20 to $10, so I like to keep mine at 45-49 friends (incl myself). You can also race 10x a day, which is fun, and you earn $30 per race you win (nothing for 2nd or 3rd place).
You also need to feed your pet, keep it clean, and keep it happy. Your pet will never die, but it will give a sigh that will pull on even the toughest of heartstrings, whilst looking oh-so-dejected that you’ve neglected it. They walk slower too, and if their hygiene is low, they’ll poop and have flies buzzing around them.
The next thing about the game is Paw Points. These accumulate and help you level up, allowing you more rooms in your house or better items (soap, toy ball, skipping rope, and frisbee). You can also pass expensive items between yourself and a friend to receive lots of paw points which helps you level up quicker.
Those are the basics in the game. Extra things include letting your pets hygiene drop to 0 whilst keeping your health and happiness above 80% so they poo (and if you’re very lucky you might poop a Golden Poo!). Currently there’s an egg hunt on around the neighbourhood (bump the trees and see if an egg drops out).
The shops you can visit include clothing (shoes/hats/tops/etc), stylist (pretty much a “plasic surgeon”), furniture (kitchen stuff/bathroom stuff/chairs/etc), luxury (really expensive items!), DIY (floor tiles/wallpapers/shelves/etc), food (um, ’nuff said), mystery (items in boxes – you never know what you’re going to get!), gadget (laptops/cellphones/clocks/etc). Venues include stadium (for racing), bank (for international players with actual $$) and cafe (meet other pets/purchase cafe items).
Let me show you around Tails’ house (click for large images – dialups beware):
The main room/lounge, decorated nicely for Easter
The kitchen (which I’m going to renovate with the new kitchen stuff thats been released – yay!
The garden…looking rather boring at the moment, but I’ll get there
The bathroom – by far my favourite room in the house so far! I just LOVE the poop on the toilet!
My attic/trophy/games room. As you progress through the game, you win trophies for things like 100 visits, races, etc – please excuse Tails, she’s in the middle of making a poo
The bedroom with the teddy the bf gave me
If you havent added it – then what are you waiting for!!??!
