Quote of the Week

NeoCash Item Trading



Now, the traditional board is called "Seeking/Trading". This is when a user creates a board with a list of the items they are seeking (as in their wishlist).

These lists are most often kept on petpages, for organizational purposes. Of course, to trade anything, you must...

Jumpin' Gem Heist



In this game, you play a Sandan that knocks over gems and collects them in its (bottomless) hat. You don't know what a mischievous Petpet like that could be up to with all those gems, but it doesn't seem to matter much, since it's so cute. And gems are shiny.
