The
Lazy Fairy has woken up from a long nap to total destruction in Vortex Park. Lucky for her, she survived and slept through the worst of the Tornado. The Marapets Team also survived. Their padded cells at the
Knutt House protected them.
For a limited time only, the retired
Apocalypse Treasure Chest from 2017 is back on sale at the
Account Upgrades Shop. It will automatically
retire again March 1st.
The Astro, Equilor, Mordo and Poera are the latest pets
Injured from the storm.

BREAKING NEWS
Storm Maranormous developed into a
Tornado and has brought with it very high winds and widespread destruction around Marada. Sadly, the worst hit world was
Vortex Park which has been left almost totally destroyed. Now that the worst of the
Storm has cleared, Marada is starting to return to normal. The Tornado has changed several parts of Marada though...
Vortex Park is no more! What will happen to its residents? Only time will tell. We do have unconfirmed reports that several of its residents survived the storm.
With so many injured pets, the
Hospital is currently FREE to visit.
All
Stock Market shares in any Vortex Park shop are now bankrupt.
The
Time Machine survived the storm but has been damaged. Until it is repaired, it's bringing people back in time twice. It will reward
2 Prizes instead of 1 from its prize list.
Carpenter wants to help with the repairs from the Tornado. Instead of being random, you are guaranteed to receive a FREE toy fix from him after your next 10
Carpenter quests. After you earn a FREE fix of a broken toy (and use it) you will earn another after your next 13 Carpenter quests. This will keep increasing by 3 quests each time.
All
Tornado, Thunder, Nimbus and Lightning Pets will receive FREE training at the
Gym and
Elite Gym and FREE lessons at the
School and
University.
The
Health Tonics,
Medicine and
Tool Shops all have a
2 for 1 special on their items to help Marada to recover.
The high winds and destruction have brought more cases of
Random Events like pet's getting sick, items blowing away, attics breaking and random wigs and hats blowing off visitors to Marada.
To help those affected by the Tornado, the
Charity Shop is stocking many more items and all stock is currently FREE.
In other news, the City of Marada has honoured their
FREE LESSONS at the School for Simerian pets until February 10th.
Day 4 of the
Storm and conditions are getting worse not better! Scientists have increased the storm from a category one to a category two and it's been officially named
Storm Maranormous. These
Injured Arinya, Bolimo, Ideus and Lati are it's latest victims.
A new '
Raging Storm' experience has been released. Can you find it?
Not all of Marada is scared of the
Storm. Brad, the
Personal Trainer from Lush Lake will continue to train himself and other pets through any weather! His quests now give much more MP than they used to. If your pet does gain a stat from completing his quest, you will gain
DOUBLE STATS until the storm passes.
With the
School still closed due to the storm, the City of Marada has announced that the
FREE LESSONS for Simerian pets will be rewarded once the storm clears.
The
Storm warnings are being ignored by the owners of Slater Park, who have recently invested in an upgrade to their
Murfin Madness ride. Rather than close the ride, they've decided to cut rides from every 2 hours to every
12 hours.
Any pet brave (or stupid) enough to ride
Murfin Madness will be guaranteed a
Charisma Stat until the storm passes.
The
Storm has had its first confirmed injuries. These poor Azul, Hump, Osafo and Troit were
Injured on their way to work today.
One of the oldest prizes from the
Clothing Rack did not change colours.
Pink 14 now has been redrawn and changes colour properly.
BREAKING NEWS
As most of you will be aware, Marada has been experiencing very unusual weather recently. The
Wizard from Dukka Caves has kept himself to himself for most of his time in Marada but today he broke his silence. Although he's not sure what caused the
Heatwave last November, he is certain of one thing...
Borak should not have interfered!
He is knows for certain that the rain, rainbow, snow and now this storm are all Borak's fault. He believes things are only going to get worse over the next few weeks or months! Although the Wizard is magic himself, he believes that it should never be used to try and change the weather.
Borak has been forced to apologise publicly to the residents of Marada and to repay them. Whenever you complete his quests, he will pay you the usual MP reward but also donate the same amount of MP to the
Giveaways feature in your name. If you win an item from his quest, he will also donate the same item to the
Pot of Gold.
The Wizard has opened his new
Wands Shop in Dukka Caves. He currently sells 18 new items for
Dukka Coins. Just like the Wands you can win from the
Time Machine, these can be used on each pet once every
4 hours to increase their school stats.
BREAKING NEWS
An unexpected, dangerous
Storm has hit Marada. It's different to the
Rain that Marada has recently experienced and it's like no weather the residents of Marada have ever experienced! As soon as we know more about it, we will let you know... but so far it's brought the following changes to Marada...
The
School is currently closed as a result of the severe weather across Marada.
Unfortunately the
Magic Carpet cannot fly through the storm and has been grounded. You
will not be able to use the Magic Carpet to pass any mission level until the storm passes.
While the Magic Carpet is grounded, you can visit the
Telescope and are guaranteed to spot it if you haven't already done so!
The
Account Upgrades Shop has a
2 for 1 promotion on all
Blood items.
The storm isn't all doom and gloom! Play
Cloud Nine and all three storm cloud multipliers will show, automatically awarding you with the highest multiplier.
To help prepare for the worst of the storm, the
Batteries,
Canned Food and
Candle Shops all have a
2 for 1 special on all items.
The storm has the
Sugar Stack falling over so easily the stack cannot get as high as usual.
Every time you play
Pie Throw, the storm will blow a pie at a random player online.
The storm is much worse in
Vortex Park, forcing the Diner, Fake Dukka Coins, Fake Pirate Ship and Fake Costumes Shops to close.
Shusan has also had to stop her quests, as her socks were blowing away.
The storm has the
Nutty Tree dropping it's nut items each time you visit.
Every time Pembe throws her
Pixie Dice, they blow away! Until the storm passes, she will give out either 1 or 2 random stats each time - guaranteed!
Since the release of
Fairy Flight, the fairies have been improving their flying skills daily and there has been a lot of healthy competition between them all to be the best. All of this competition has caught the attention of the ultimate
Winner, who is the newest addition to Minipet Island.
He is so great at all sports, he's never lost a game! He needs more pets in Marada to be as good as he is. The higher your pet's
Sports stat is, the greater he will reward them. You will receive prizes for each of your pet's sports stat levels - the higher you train, the more you are rewarded! There are currently prizes for 140 or more Sports Stats.
The
Winner has been added to the Minipet Island world map and the Rewards page.
There are even more winners today, as the Santa Claws
New Year Raffle has been announced.
There were 100 winners of
1,000,000MP, 3 winners of
£25 Account Upgrades Credit, 10 winners of
£10 Account Upgrades Credit and 25 winners of
£5 Account Upgrades Credit. If you were a winner of MP or Account Upgrades Credit you should now have them and an alert. Any Bonus Prize items won will now be in your Inventory if you were a winner.
The following players won a
Christmas costume:
Toshiyori63, gabbygirl95929, Gwylynnsgarden, Culli, illusionistdave, ImAly, cupuchino, Gamzee, Sonya, Megnifique, tamadude123party, Kolae, Affection, ZyuohTheWorld, Vicki, mepopmad, Meggy, fluffy57142, magenta2977, puzzlesme2pieces
Sadly, the
Rainbow in Marada has faded away. Luckily, these rainbows may appear whenever we've had a period of
Rain in Marada. Can't wait that long? A new 'Marvelous Rainbow' experience has been released. Can you find it?
You can also bring a little more colour to your life at the
Hair Dye Shop which now has a new shopkeeper.
Now that our new
Arcade Games are being released, we can finally reveal some of the changes intended for the old flash games without ruining the surprise! The 46
Video Game bonus prizes that could be won from each of the flash games will remain as items on the game but now restock at the Video Games Shop for Score Points.
BREAKING NEWSWhen it rained in Marada, the fairies were stuck. Their wings get wet and they can't fly around. This isn't good enough! Now that the rain has stopped, the Royal Fairy has commanded all fairies to practice their flying skills and she needs your help! You can play
Fairy Flight up to
3 times per day for FREE. Fly each fairy through each doughnut, without missing a doughnut, flying too high or falling to the ground and you'll earn points. If you send score, you can earn 35MP per point up to a maximum of 2,000MP per game.
Fairy Flight is the first of many new Arcade Games we have on the way to replace the Flash Games we retired beginning this year. These games can be played on any browser and on any device - including Mobile! This game will also pay
5 Score Points for each play (or 10 if you have the Arcade Giftbox). You may also win a random bonus prize whenever you send score and there is a
High Scores list to compete for the top score. Score Points and the Arcade Fairy will remain as a currency and counter based on all Arcade Games, Free Games and Points to Play Games. However, a new counter for these new Arcade Games will start from now and will include all future games released, most likely with a new reward fairy.
Can you find the 'Fairy Flight'
Hidden Avatar?
Over the next couple of weeks and months, more details will be revealed about changes to the Monthly Checklist, bonus prizes from the old Flash Games and all of the other exciting changes and improvements we have on the way. Once again we'd like to thank all of our players, especially those who have continued to play and support us over the past 15 Years and those who purchase
Account Upgrades. Without your help we'd not be able to continue to improve and grow.
A new
Rainbow Treasure Chest is on sale at the
Account Upgrades Shop. It will automatically
retire March 10th. You can open this item to receive 8 different, random new items, including new clothes, scenery, minipet, gourmet food, toys, holograms and hair extensions. You will not receive duplicate items inside a single treasure chest.
Can you find these new
Hidden Avatars?
As soon as the rainbow appeared in Marada, all citizens rushed out to have a look. Sadly, the
Contact Lenses Shopkeeper was unable to see the rainbow. All of the years he's been selling these contact lenses, he never once used them himself! He finally used a pair of today and for the first time saw how badly he looked. Thankfully he has now had a makeover!
BREAKING NEWS
After a week or so of rain, it's slowly stopping and the sun has come through, creating a beautiful
Rainbow. The
Rainbow Fairy informs us that a rainbow in Marada lasts around 6 to 24 hours usually but she thinks this time it'll be around for about
48 hours or 72 hours at the most! What happens when there is a Rainbow? Well...
All
Rainbow Pets will receive FREE training at the
Gym and
Elite Gym and FREE lessons at the
School and
University.
Whenever there is a rainbow in Marada, the
Operations Portal,
Whirlpool,
Vortex Park Reservoir and
Foxfire Pond are
guaranteed to change your pet's colour, species or both!
The
Account Upgrades Shop has a
2 for 1 promotion on all
DNA items.
With all the beautiful colours in the sky,
Drew doesn't need any more colour! He will only ask for the colour white, which is default for every player. This means you can complete his quests without the Glowing Egg collection requirement.
The
Leprechaun is busy chasing the rainbow. You'll have to wait until this rainbow leaves to complete his quests.
The
Costumes,
Contact Lenses,
Eye Make Up,
Face Make Up,
Fake Costumes and
Hair Dye Shops all have a
2 for 1 special on all items.
Complete a
Farming quest and if you win a
Ball of Yarn you will receive 2.
And finally, if your minipet can change colour, it will change colour when it rides the
Fasoro Falls.
The Simerian Costume was first released in August 2008 in Account Upgrades and the costume has been retired and forgotten about ever since.
A new
Simerian Account Upgrade Set has been released, with 7 new Simerian themed items, a
retired Simerian Costume and either a Simerian Enchanted Plushie or Simerian Potion. This set is on sale until
February 29th.
You can choose if you would like the main prize to be an Enchanted Simerian Plushie or Potion. There is 1 in 3 chance you will receive a restricted
Vlad instead of Crindol, Gonk, Osafo, Paffuto, Speiro, Tantua and Yakubi.
The Crindol, Gobble, Gonk, Ike, Paffuto, Pucu, Rofling, Sybri, Tantua, Vlad, Yakubi and Zoosh can now wear the
Simerian Costume.
The
Simerian Addow, Osafo, Speiro, Yuni and Zoink have been updated to match the new style.
There are 8 new species of
DNA Minipet that can now be cloned at the
Laboratory. The Fasafo and Azow have also been updated.

We've had 6 days of
Rain in Marada and some residents are getting used to being under water. For a limited time only, the retired
Underwater Treasure Chest from 2012 is back on sale at the
Account Upgrades Shop. It will automatically
retire again January 31st.
There are other ways for your pets to wrap up in this
Rain. Twelve more
Mummy Pets have been updated. This means all 77 pets now have the updated design!
Day 3 of
Rain in Marada and poor old Gladys from the
Charity Shop almost blew away trying to tell residents all about the changes at her shop. She now restocks much more items each restock and she can stock items that are up to
Rarity 20 now instead of 10. Be sure to check by and grab a bargain!
Much like Gladys' umbrella, these pets are now
Defective.
There are new
Profile Settings to give you greater control over what you allow/share.
You can now hide the time/date on your
Activity Log so that it only shows for your friends or best friends (or no one if you set it to best friend and have none of these).
You can do the same for comments on your Blog and comments on your activity, which is coming soon.
You also have much more control over each player contacting you. You can click on the friends icon on any player's profile and change the ways that this player is able to contact you.
For example, you could have your default MaraTalk setting at 'Best Friends Only' but still visit the new 'friendship' page on a player's profile to always allow or always block a specific player from contacting you.
The Ercuw, Eyru, Oglue, Phanty, Pucu, Tasi, Troit and Zetlian can now wear the
Recycled Costume.
BREAKING NEWS
Borak has had such a negative response from the residents of Marada, he has stopped trying to change the weather. Hours after he stopped, the
Rain has returned. The
Rainy Account Upgrade that was supposed to
retire today has been extended by a week.
The Chibs, Decadal, Hump, Leido, Renat and Xoi can now wear the
Rainy Costume.
For those who missed it last time it was
Raining in Marada, the following is happening again...
Heatwave items are not retired but now that it's raining and not a heatwave in Marada, they are not currently available. If you haven't already noticed, Marapets has a new rainy layout and the Cleaning Products shop also has a new shopkeeper!
Completing a level on any
Mission during this rain and you'll win one of these new
Umbrellas for your Wardrobe.
The
Books,
CDs,
DVDs and
Video Game Shops all have a
2 for 1 special on all items to help you keep your pets entertained inside while it rains.
The rain has made the
Lake in Lush Lake flood. For your own safety, you cannot currently visit.
With
Lush Lake flooded from the rain, the
Coffee,
Contact Lenses,
Hair Dye,
Lipsticks and
Olympic Shops are all closed.
With the miserable rainy weather outside, pets are concentrating better at School, the Gym, Elite Gym and University and earning
Double Stats.
Pets are all working harder at their jobs as it rains outside. This means there is
TRIPLE the chance of receiving a
Job Promotion random event and
DOUBLE the chance of the promotion actually being given by your pet's boss!
This rain has the residents of Marada doing a lot more indoor activities, like
Shopping. But it also is a chance for
Shopkeepers like you to increase your shop sales and the amount of items you have on sale! Upgrading your
Shop Size is currently
Half Price!
And finally, Queen Eleka will be giving out extra
FREE Loyalty Raffle Tickets for players who fill up and price their own
Shops. While she won't reveal her secret formula, the more new items you add and price in your Shop, the more extra tickets she will give out!
Major changes have happened with our
Friends and
Feeds features.
There is now an
Activity Log on each player's profile. It's a page that puts together some of the public features of Marapets, like your topics and blogs with a few other things you acheive, such as complete a goal, find an avatar, complete a mission or take a selfie and shows this in a timeline.
The old feeds feature allowed you to subscribe to a certain player's trades, topics, blogs etc and be notified whenever they used these.
Feeds are now a
News Feed based on what
your friends are doing and what you subscribe to. You can now click on the friendship icon on any player's profile and change the settings for each player. You can allow or block them from contacting you from certain features and you can also subscribe to their activity, just like before.
By default, what your friends are doing will show on your brand new
News Feed. This will be expanded over the next few months with much more options on what you would like or not like to share with other players. There will also be more options to allow any player, just friends (or totally disable) comments on your activity.
You have total control over what shows on your News Feed. You can click on any friend from your News Feed or click on the Friendship icon on any player's profile and change what you follow, what you don't, if they can contact you or not and many other options.
This is a brand new feature and is obviously very complex. If you have any issues, please report them so that we can fix and improve this right away. Once we're happy this all works as it should, we will start to add more features to it.
What is the point of the new News Feed?
Our Maramail/MaraTalk features allow you to contact players in private and our Alerts keep you notified of any game related notifications.
News Feed is and will be for more social parts of the site. If you create a topic, notifications will go here rather than popup and bother you as you play.
One of your best friends just started a mission and has 30 minutes to go and may fail. You will see this on your news feed and you may have the item they need to be able to help them pass.
A new Hidden Avatar is released - 4 or 5 of your friends have found it. You can see this now on your news feed and ask them for the solution. Or a friend finds an avatar you've been stuck on - you can see this and ask to borrow their pet.
There are many different benefits (or not for some people) to these new news feed to see what your friends are doing. If you don't care or don't want to see these, you have total control over what you see or don't miss!
