New Pet Society Items – May 18th May 18, 2009
After a day delay, the new Pet Society items were released today. There’s some really fun stuff including:
Clothing: There’s a beautiful new sari, which doesn’t look entirely correct, but Momo still loves it! She’s wearing it in the photos below. There’s also a cool new fireman suit and a “Lolita” dress. I think Nabokov’s book is so much better than the fashion trend, but the dress is cute.
Soft-serve ice creams are now available in the food store. I only wish that the orange flavored soft-serve was not just a “this week special” item. The chocolate and strawberry soft-serves will continue to be available in later weeks. Here’s Momo getting ready for a feast!
In the DIY store, my favorite items are the gingerbread house wallpaper and window. So cute! Unfortunately, you can’t place plants on the gingerbread window ledge.
In the furniture store, my favorite items are the leather-bound books and the ladybug doll:
Pet Society Cash Shop May 18, 2009
The latest news from the mayor was sent out today.
The newest shopkeeper in Pet Society is the greedy, seedy Terrence. He speaks with a British accent.
To buy items in the new Playfish Cash Store, players must invest real money into purchasing a new Playfish currency called “Playfish Cash.” Playfish cash is different and separate from the Playfish coins we have been playing with since August 2008.
The only way to earn Playfish Cash is buy paying real money. Items purchased from the Playfish Cash store can only be gifted at the point of purchase. This means that players cannot trade the items.
There are some pretty items in the store, and many of them claim to make earning Pet Society coins easier. I’m pretty disappointed, since so many people on the Playfish forums have complained about difficulties in earning coins. Now, instead of just adapting the game, Playfish wants players to pay real money to make earning fake Pet society coins easier. What a Catch-22!
I wish Playfish had stuck to the old in-store advertisements for revenue within the Pet Society interface. This is a screencap I took on January 10, 2009 when a Blockbuster ad was visible for a month in the food store. There was also an ad for flowers in February 2009. These ads were a lot less intrusive.
Does anyone else have an opinion on Pet Society Playfish Cash?
