Help, I've Fallen & I Can't Get Up!

With less than a week to Christmas, I was beginning to lose hope for seeing an ice rink in Pico. But finally, the Xmas Skate Rink has made an appearance!

However, it is a shame to see so many Picos outside the rink, instead of on it! To get onto the rink - as one might expect - you need ice skates! Skates are available from the icy-looking robo for 80 AG or in exchange for a token. I wish that they were available in gummies so that everybody could partake...

As well, there are several limited actions for sale which can only be used on the skating rink.

Coach bi bo tries her best, but Little Darby takes a spill.

"I will trade you a bite of my candy cane for skating lessons. Why are you laughing? Does that mean no??"

Batty For Halloween Decorations

Halloween is rapidly approaching (9 days to go!) and for the occasion, Chloe has completely redecorated her house! Because it is a new area, the queue is usually full of 100+ Picos. So in the meantime, why don't you check out how some Picos users have decorated their rooms for Halloween? In addition to the usual ghost, pumpkin, bat, spiderwebs and candy decor... it appears Chloe is so enthused, she went so far as to repaint and re-shingle her entire house! Now that's dedication. She welcomes Picos at the gate of her decked-out pink & purple home in a matching sparkly pink & purple fairy costume. Ok, that's not obsessive at all...

The trees are strung with festive lights, and if you look for them, there's even a ghost or two floating around! But don't worry, despite the upset-looking faces on Little Darby and that tree, the ghosts seem friendly enough!

Louis, the gardener has even brought out the Halloween version of his outfit, and in addition to the decor previously found at Chloe's undecorated house, he markets Chloe's new spooky housing items including:

Spooky, friendly and smiley jack-o-lanterns, a trick or treat welcome gate, bat shaped bench, swing and gate, a lantern, rocking chair, dining chair and table as well as small and large halloween bushes. The majority of the items are available in exchange for Ameba Gold or a token. The orange, green and purple smiley halloween cubes are the only items available for purchase with gummies.

During your visit, don't forget to take a picture & post it to the Pico Fanpage on Facebook to enter the Special Halloween Photo Contest!

Happy Haunting!

New Area: Chloe's House

Today we can visit Chloe! She lives in New York America. It seems they changed the name. Does this mean we can expect more American cities? How about Canada?


Like all new areas, this place will be swamped for about a week. Prepare to wait in queue for at least 10 minutes...


Chloe lives in a big Victorian-style house. There's lots of foliage, and plenty of garden seating. I guess she was expecting us.

You can purchase some of these garden-themed items from friendly Louis. That's right Louis, swing is for everyone!

These items will bring you happiness!! Because who wouldn't want a garden like Chloe's? Did you catch the sarcasm?

A unique part of this area is the message board! Like regular Picos, you can leave a message to our good friend Chloe, but it seems it clears itself every now and then, and Chloe doesn't really read these messages. More like a whiteboard than a message board...

I couldn't resist.
