Fluffy fox head?

So this is old news but since when is the rare fox hat renamed the fluffy fox head? 
Also is no one else disturbed that it's literally the head of a fox... that another animal is wearing... 


Tbh it sounds even worse named this but anyways

Animal Jam Play Wild App

It is I, the Frenchiest Fry
I'm on Animal Jam Play Wild now if anyone is interested, I'd love to get in touch with you all! Username is still Bugzy109. Just comment your user if it has changed so I know who I am buddying up with :)

Okay so! I wanted to give my little review on this app. Opening statement: it's amazing.
In-depth statement: a lot better than Animal Jam Original (idk what else to call it). Here's why:

Mia's List of Reasons PW is Better Than the Original

(In no particular order)

1. Limited membership applications 
Unlike Original, PW has very limited circumstances where being a member actually makes a difference. Everything "member" like is bought using sapphires, and a fun way to earn those is by completing the missions on your game menu. Each time you reach a goal, you earn sapphires. I believe it goes 1, 10, 15. What I really love is that you don't need a membership to have a variety of animals and outfits.

Ain't no member symbols here son
2. Clothing
The clothing is just... better! It interacts with your animal. Some of the wings move, headbands glitter and move around your head, and overall there are some adorable designs. Like the blueberry earrings for instance. I'm in love with them!


Also, there's an added feature that allows you to save a particular outfit into your wardrobe to select if you really love your look and can't be bothered finding everything again (because really, who has time for that?). 


3. In-app games
There are SO MANY MORE GAMES! And they are tonnes of fun! Not only can you still play all your favourites - Derby, Falling Phantoms, Best Dressed etc, but there are HEAPS more to choose from. Not only that, but all of them deal gems very generously, and you can earn prizes as you play (as aforementioned). 




4. The Graphics 
EVERYTHING IS SO DANG CUTE. My goodness lemme tell you, when I first used my goat... and watched it hop around... it's tiny little hooves clip clopping... it is so, so small,,, I died (from happiness). Just so cute.


The shadows are fantastic. Have you noticed? Even if you have a pair of wings that are moving, like the Mira ones (you get at level 11 btw so don't trade anything for them fellas), the shadow applies that and gah. It's just really cool. The game moves very well with your animal too. The screen angles are fantastic, and it's angled in a way that you barely notice it is a mobile version. What I mean by this is, when you play on your laptop for example, the screen is slightly tilted, whereas your phone is up straighter. The app shows a slightly tilted view, like that of a laptop, for an easier adjustment from laptop to phone. Something I noticed and I think it's cool if you don't its fine sorry for the rant. 

Also!!! Each animal has it's own little dance thing it does. In the Original, when you stand still, your animal will just breathe. In PW, an Arctic Wolf will look at its feet real cute, a cougar will look around real cute, a goat will do its adorable lil skipskip dance knowwhatimsayin; it's just really well done. 
(I'll figure out how to record screen but for now it's a bit too hard for me lol)

5. Packs
Packs have always existed in the Original, but you could never really do anything with them, except "fight" with another pack by calling them doodoo heads and playing 'mummies and daddies'. Now, not only can you join a pack (with a different hideout depending on the alpha), the app alerts you when other members are playing, when other members are at the hideout, and there is an in-game leaderboard because you can actually do things with you pack, like the forest hunt. 

Leader board 



I didn't know what that was like, an hour ago lol but my point is it's cool.
missed some drama in my pack apparently lmaoooo
Moving on,,, 

6. Art 
Submitting a piece of artwork that looks passable is so much easier on a mobile. The mouse was KILLER on the laptop and not everyone has a touch-screen or a drawing tablet or whatever you talented people use. 
SPEAKING OF TALENTED!
Wow! You guys are fantastic at these things. I tried to do a little somethinsomethin

(just realised this is actually from Original but my point still stands)

 and thought it was pretty good, and then I saw others and I was... speechless. Absolutely fantastic job.

Then there's Appari... had no idea he still existed. Do people still, follow him? isn't he like, in his 20's now? 


7. Overall game play/flow
I love how non-members and newbies can still become "rare" if they spend enough time playing. Every day there are prizes available in the treasure hunt thing, and you can get the animals for that whether you are a member or not. I saw the other day a spiked wristband available for the arctic wolf one. I didn't win it but you get what I mean.
And prizes can be won through the games as mentioned, also through the pack forest hunts and just from levelling up (another awesome feature). It makes it a lot less daunting for new players. 

8. The map
When you click on an island, you are greeted with an icon to take you to any shops, pet stores, games, whatever that is there if you don't want to go to the township. I know Original has this feature as well, but this one is easier and nicer looking. 

Room for Improvement

(I am in no way dissing this game, it's awesome, I have left these in suggestion boxes in-game :))

1. Clothing/furniture items available for sale
100% understand why there aren't many, because the game is so new. Still needs more stuff though. 

2. Tutorial!!
The Original has a tutorial everyone goes through to teach you the ropes. I would have appreciated that heaps with this game because I was really stuck on a few things (packs, games, trading, treasure hunts etc). Maybe that's just cause I'm a slow learner though, but I'm sure littler kids would appreciate it as well :)

3. Water Worlds
One thing I noticed (surprisingly because they are so dead on Original) is the lack of Crystal Reef, Bahari Bay, Kani Cove and deep Blue. They would be awesome to play though! It's be like flying because there are hardly any space limitations lol. Also it being quiet is good for people that just want one-on-one chill sessions in a spoopy environment. Like it had shipwrecks man! Why it's not more popular I'll never know. 

4. Daily Spin 
A daily spin for sapphires would be ðŸ”¥

Of course this isn't everything, there is a lot to say and a lot that is awesome about this game. I was sceptical at first, but now I fully understand why it is so popular. If you think of anything else you like/needs improvement, or simply love this app, be sure to mention it ;)

Love y'all

AJ Rejected My Fine Art??? + Thank You

I received mail from AJHQ yesterday (it's been a while since it hasn't been a buddy request) and what do I find???


There was nothing wrong about my art apart from it being too awesome for you to handle ajhq 

It followed all the rules


THERE WAS NOTHING INAPPROPRIATE ABOUT IT 


Just slightly sarcastic 

"Making you should try making real art" you might say
THIS IS ART CAN'T YOU READ 
anger

Also this 


Thank you fancycat79 I'm not sure what images you're talking about but if it is about my blog thank you! I couldn't be cool without you guys

Location Glitch Still Isn't Fixed

I was with my friend Lunawolf895 yesterday and I noticed that with this update the ever annoying location glitch still exists and might even be worse


She was in my den, right next to me, and it still doesn't compute
What the heckles

May 26 2016 Update - Art Gone Crazy

What even is this update idk where to begin guys OH YES I DO I SAW CIVIL WAR LAST NIGHT AND SPIDERMAN WAS AMAZING that's all that matters

Okay let's just start with Page 1

Wow! Turning your art into a den item is actually a pretty cool idea for people who love that kind of stuff, AJ you rock!

Page 2

Oh what, you can trade it? Idk how I feel about this... Lemme make a list

Pro's:
You can get nice artwork for your den even if your drawing isn't the best (like mine)
It will be something to ask for besides spiked collars for a while
You can draw cute things and express yourself not just to those who visit your den but to many more if you want to

Con's:
Art by famous Jammers will probably get more attention than others
Apparently this stuff is worth spikes now so there's that
This will most likely end up like the Jammer Wall and Jam a Grams in that only members can use it fully

What do you guys think of it I need a second opinion

Mmk here's how to do what they just described ^^

Go to the art place room in Coral Canyons and click on the used-to-be blank canvas, now a horribly disfigured Peck


*shivers* Kinda scared me when I first saw it 
Okay once you've clicked on it you can draw your art, here's mine for the purpose of this tutorial 


U CAN NO COPY RUGHT OK ITS TO GUUD N MINEE
Once you're happy with your art, click on the "Create Den Item" icon (oh wow look there's a diamond this is just great)

You'll get to choose between 4 frames, each costing 2 Diamonds (this would be so much better is non members got weekly diamonds too I mean come on)


Once you have clicked on an frame you will get this Masterpiece Rules message


Because I'm too nice to you all I bought my "art" for 2 diamonds (why are we buying our own art that's kinda weird)


Whoopy, wait, why does it look like that? Oh right cause AJ has to review my AWFUL ART HAHA
This is what it looks like as a den item



beautiful 


That comes up if you click the looking glass at this stage ^


I HOPE MINE COUNTS AS GOOD ART 

When you see it on a trade list it has the same thing, and all of them have the really super shiny diamond in the right corner for some reason 



I liked this one :)

Page 3

Is it just me or does this den look like a gaping mouth with diamond teeth trying to devour you, with the windows as eyes and stuff and yeah

I had a bunch of screenshots of the den but I don't think I saved them DX

Page 4

All hats will be 50% off for two weeks. The last time we had a Hataplooza, in 2012, there was a stand in Sarepia Forest with top hats and phantom hats and stuff and that was really cool ah the good old days. I wish they did that again.


I guess Graduation Caps don't count?

Page 5 

I KNEW IT
Thank you swirlshine for the confirm it made me feel good about myself and my guessing skills

Page 6

This is a lot better than an ad, and it's actually something educational! If pigs are so clean, why do we always compare a dirty person to a pig? Or a messy room to a 'pigsty'? Weird how generalisations can change entire races opinions on things :/

That's all from me for now, jaaaaaam ooooooonnnn :)))))
