December 1st has come once again and that can only mean one thing - Aurestal has returned! The most joyous season of the year for Terrafrost is kickstarting the month off with the annual Advent Calendar. Be sure to check in every day to receive a festive new item.



And if you miss a day, don't worry -- you can always buy the Forgotten Advent Key at the I.C.E Shop for just 300 IceCash (270 for Gold Accounts.) You can use it to unlock any Advent Calendar day you've missed, including ones from previous years with the exception of 2012.





Don't forget to stop by the Aurestal Shop which is only open for the month of December! You can use this shop to purchase older Aurestal Items, as well as this year's Advent Calendar Items, which will be stocked after the 25th. Keep your eyes on the news about how to earn more Aurestal Points again this year, as well as a news update for when fresh stock is added for the month!






The votes have been tallied, and it's time to announce the winners of Member of the Month (MOTM for short)! For this month's Yet to Win MOTM, everyone congratulate...

As we move into December, new Items can be found in the I.C.E Shop for the duration of the month! Head on over to pick up the new Cactus Stamp and Barrel Cactus Plush, along with the returning Mushroom Ice Cube. Each of these is priced at 500 IceCash (or 450 IceCash for Gold Members)!



Low on IceCash? Don't fret -- we have something for you as well! Consider stopping by the Toy Trunk for the Rattler! It'll also be rewarded by the Plushie Quest, and a week from now, the Space Quest will begin requesting it. We're also rolling out the new Succulent Coin! You can find it at the United Terrafrost Post Office, though it will not be involved in any Quests.



The seasons are changing, and with them, the Token Booth stock has swapped over! Welcome the brand new Artyx, Mysterious Igloo Figurine, and Ice Palace Coin, which can all be purchased with tokens.



If you missed out on any of the older Winter Token Booth Items, you can try to find one in the Winter Goodie Bag.

Thanks for participating!

Three BIG updates coming soon!

We have three major new features on the way this December!

They are being spaced out by a week each to give us time to facilitate their launches and handle any bugs that arise.



1. Adventures in Zarrion - Trials of the Loot Labyrinth

• ETA: Monday, December 4th
  
• The site will need to come down for about 30 to 60 minutes sometime on Monday to perform this update.
  
• This is a new game that has been in the making for a while now.. the RPG from the Fundraiser Campaign!
  
• Your pumas will take on new roles as warriors or magicians and explore the dungeon, battling monsters and bosses along the way in the pursuit of treasure!

2. Crafting, Salvaging, New Quests

• ETA: December 11th
  
• There shouldn't be any downtime for this update, but keep your eyes on the news just in case. :')
  
• Crafting will be launching with over 300 recipes to discover, along with Salvaging to turn some older items into useful scrap parts.
  
• Gathering Quests and Crafting Quests will also be released and packed full of shiny new materials to use in the crafting system, or to consume crafted items for a nice chunk of pence!

3. Ventures

• ETA: December 18th
  
• Again likely no downtime or minimal downtime.
  
• Ventures are a way for pumas to help perform various tasks and bring you items!
  
• Pumas will learn skills to take on even more difficult ventures, and you'll be helping other players along the way!
  
• Available ventures will be things like shopping, cooking, adventuring in the dungeons, gathering, and more!

What! Where?! When! Why?!

:) Some of these are promises made for the fundraiser campaign, but some of them are surprise additions we made during development!

As these features come out you can expect a news post detailing what they are and guides to help you play and use the new features!

All of these cool new things will be part of the ongoing updates P3 receives, with new recipes, treasure, and other cool items being added over time.


Keep your eyes and ears open for more news this Monday! Eeeee!

Last week's round of What Am I has ended.

The item description was: This turkey knows how to strut its stuff.
The answer was: Flamboyant Cornucopia Turkey.

5 out of 7 Ichuans answered correctly.

A new round of What Am I has started. Good luck!

Today is the last day of the month and the festivities have arrived!


Festivus has already started. We hope you all set up your trees and are ready to give lots of gifts to your fellow players. As of tomorrow, you will be able to view who has their tree set up in the Party Room.


Get your creative juices flowing when you set up your Snowscape, accessible from your user profile. We will be picking a winner every day this month. Each winner will receive a free account upgrade and an awesome trophy for their profile. To participate all you need to do is keep an eye on small updates and put your name in the post.


A Snapz! winner will be drawn every day. Work hard and make it as winter or holiday themed as you can!

Yay! Winterroo is back! Each day you can visit Lil Roo's igloo and collect a cool prize. You will also be able to visit Powerbuck every day and dig through his poop for gold!

If you visit Padam's Shack he will give you a favorite treat of his. They are pretty disgusting, however, free stuff is always a good thing!

The Christmas giftpack for December will be available soon. We hope you love the new items. As always, we thank everyone who purchase giftpacks and supports Powerpets.


Every Sunday in December we will be running our usual High Games score. Your job is to get in the top 10 scores for Dicey Mice, Bubba's Blocks, Mini Bubbles, Crash Extreme, or Mini Match. Each player who gets in the top 10 score will receive 10 points. You can play against yourself or with other players. It doesn't matter as long as you can get in the top 10. Since our first Sunday in December is quickly approaching, we will be starting today. The final draw on December 31st will be included in the points total.

Prizes will be given out to the top 25 players in January. The prizes will be the old and rare Minis! These rare items value well over 70 million each.





If you live in a PF Town and you have not yet voted for your mayor, today is the last day to do so.

On the 1st day of the month, we will be selecting the Stuffy of the Month contest winners. For every 100 credits purchased in the Upgrade Center, a ticket will be entered in the random draw.


The Eurobank will be handing out its interest tonight. If you want to be eligible for December interest rates, you need to deposit your money now and make sure you log in at least once during the month.


On the 9th of the month the staff will be hosting a 500,000 PB Dicey Mice Staff Challenge during the day and evening. If you can beat the staff in a challenge, you will win a prize. One prize per player.



On the 17th of the month we will be holding our monthly FREE BINGO day. As a thank you to everyone for playing Powerpets, everyone will be receiving 6 free tickets for every game. Come on out and play a few games and try your luck at winning some jackpots!



On the 23rd of this month we will be hosting a 250,000 PB Mini Bubbles Staff Challenge during the day and evening. If you can beat the staff in a challenge, you will win a prize. One prize per player.




On the 25th of each month we will be holding our Monthly Scavenger Hunt. Get those thinking caps on and try your luck at winning an investigator stuffy.

We hope you had fun and we'll see you in December!
