It's December and the Heatwave continues. The Gobble is the latest pet to be shaved and all other pets have been updated to match the new style.

The Gobble is back again this year - just in time for Thanksgiving! These new, random Gobble Enchanted Plushie and Potions are at the Account Upgrades Shop. You can view the Full List here. They will automatically retire December 10th.

One of our oldest features, the Dukka Town Scratchcards has been relaunched. It still costs a Two Dukka Coin to buy a scratchcard once per hour, or 30 minutes with the Scratchcards Giftbox but almost every thing else has changed. Scratchcards no longer need to be 'used' in your Inventory - they're now toys for your pets to play with in this way instead. Any Dukka Town Scratchcard you have in your Inventory can be scratched at any time at the Scratchcards game page.

There are still the same 10 different Scratchcards and if you had any that were not scratched before, they were returned to your Inventory a few days ago. Each card is rarer than the next, with higher chances of winning and bigger prizes on each. There is a new Mega Jackpot which is a combined MP jackpot with Dukka Town, Jenoa (relaunching soon) and Vortex Park (coming soon). All three of these scratchcard games will add to this jackpot and all can win it. Each scratchcard kiosk also has it's own Jackpot.

The Dukka Town Scratchcard kiosk has brand new artwork and is easier to navigate and play now. You also actually SCRATCH each Scratchcard when you play now - and this also works on mobile! You can win University Stats, Dukka Coins, Account Upgrade Credit, Charisma Stats, Retired items, Enchanted Plushies, Plushies, random items, RP, BP and MP. We hope you like the changes!

A new set of limited edition Thanksgiving items are now on sale at the Account Upgrades Shop. They will all automatically retire December 9th.

Gobbles can now wear the Camouflage and Floral Costumes and the Mummy Gobble has been updated.

There is a shortage of Gobbles in Marada. With Talon frightened that he will be cooked instead, he has hired a replacement until December 11th. The Heatwave in Marada has had tragic consequences for the Urple family. Zurple (Burple's colourful sister), Burple (Gurple's even uglier cousin), Murple (Burple's best friend's neighbour) and Murple, the original Gobble (too ugly and unpalatable to be eaten) are now extinct. Talon has instead hired Plucky. Are you brave enough to fight him in the Battle Arena? If you are, accept his quest below and make your way to the arena for a fight! If you win, he will reward you with MP or these new Thanksgiving Prizes that will retire after December 11th.

Although this worked well for us for many years, it's becoming more and more difficut to make this work well for everyone and limited how much information/space we could squeeze into a tiny frame. The iframes themselves took up a lot of space and it was a lot slower. The new Price Checker now loads on the page in to a floating pop up box that you can close. You can also change how you want links to open at the Shop Search page.
