New Neopets Game Room Beta Live and Games Galore

The new Game Room Beta being referred to as the Game Machine is now active on Neopets.  This is a great looking redo in my opinion.  I think it really looks fresh, new, and more appealing.

The redo also includes the individual game pages having a new look.  This includes easy navigation to go back to all games, go to a category of games, go to the game list for a particular world, go to popular games, go to the day's featured game, and go to a random game.  The random game feature is especially fun if you cannot decide on a game to play.

Another part I really love about the redo of the individual game pages is the NP ratio now being displayed as 1 NP = how many ever points in the particular game.  This makes it so much clearer and easier for those that find the math to figure out the score to reach the max 1,000 NP per play difficult.

I also like the way the High Score box is displayed on the page for each game.  Oh and ho you favorites are shown under that box.


What do you think of the new Game Room Beta?

New Game Machine Games Room Coming to Neopets

So the delayed surprise from yesterday, is a new Games Room on Neopets being referred to as the Game Machine.  It is not active yet, as they are still working on all the bugginess going on with Neopets lately.  Sounds interesting, though.  I especially am excited that once it is released there will be a Games Galore week through midnight NST on March 4, 2012.

Games Galore means you can send 5 scores a day per game.  Games Galore is a great way to score some extra NP on the games your good at and also good motivation to practice up for the Daily Dare starting on March 7, 2012.

Neopets Daily Dare 2012 to start March 7

I look forward all year for the Daily Dare challenges every March on Neopets.  It has not always been consistent when starting, but typically it starts on March 1.  However, the Neopets news announced yesterday that this year it will start on March 7, 2012.  Be sure to check back when it starts as I will be doing my daily posts on it again this year.

It is kind of nice to get a good heads up on the official start date.  Also, the date is being pushed back for so surprise on February 28.  Sounds interesting, but not likely to be very game related, but maybe a decent short plot.
