VIRTUAL MAYHEM IN HABITICA AND APRIL SUBSCRIBER ITEMS REVEALED!

A Habitica character stands in a meadow with butterflies flying around. There is a stable behind the character. There are four Virtual Pets, two on each side of the Habitica character. From left to right, they are yellow, red, blue, and green.

Virtual Mayhem in Habitica![]

April first has dawned in Habitica and across Habit City everyone is starting the morning, keeping a lookout to see what strange things may be in store.

Beffymaroo is on her way to the Tavern when she sees SabreCat holding a large plastic egg-shaped object. He’s looking at it with a puzzled expression, and it’s emitting beeps and other electronic noises.

"Sabe, what’s that?"

"Uh, well, I found it in my stable this morning where my tiger cub should have been!" says Sabe, still looking confounded. He turns the object around to reveal a screen with a pixelated face looking back at them. It emits a distorted meow.

"Wait a minute, did the Fool just change our pets into virtual pets?!" says Beffy.

In a burst of confetti, the April Fool appears, arms full of more virtual pets.

"Yes, you are witnesses to my new innovation! Today is your special limited time trial for Habitica’s Pets V.2.0! They’ll change back tomorrow, so definitely be sure to give them a whirl while you can. I think you’ll find they're quite a technological leap!"

"I’m not sure that us having to carry them around and push buttons is an improvement," laughs Sabe, "but they are very cute and retro!"

Equipping different pets will show different virtual pet designs. Have fun discovering them all and be sure to check out the April Fool’s Social Media Challenge for a fun chance to share your new pets, win gems, and be featured on the Habitica Blog!

An Appearance by the Master of Rogues...[]

It’s a quiet late March mid-morning in the Tavern. Habiticans are bustling about, drinking their favorite morning beverages, and chatting about their tasks for the day.

Piyo and Beffymaroo sit at the bar, sipping on Daniel the Bartender’s special Productivi-Tea.

"I suppose it's about that time, the time of year when we start speculating about what sort of hijinks we can expect from the Master of Rogues come April first," starts Beffymaroo.

"Hm. What else is out there to do, he's done so many different pranks!" says Piyo. "Tiny pets, veggie pets, confection pets, color-reversed pets..."

A head with conspicuous bright blue and pink hair pops up unexpectedly from behind the bar.

"Oho!" exclaims the April Fool, surprising both Beffy and Piyo with his sudden appearance. "Don't doubt that I am hard at work, devising another delightful improvement to Habitica to deploy on my favorite day of the year."

"Does Daniel know you just... hang out back here?" asks Piyo.

"A delightful improvement you say," says Beffy, eyebrow raised.

"It's a surprise! But I promise this new feature will be virtually the greatest thing to ever happen to Habiticans!" the Fool replies. He leapfrogs over the bar and cartwheels all the way out of the Tavern, to the delight of all the patrons.

Stay tuned, it sounds like the Fool is up to his old tricks... or perhaps new tricks!

Cupid and Rose Quartz Magic Hatching Potions[]

We're excited to announce the return of Rose Quartz and Cupid Magic Hatching Potions! Between now and February 28, you can buy these potions from the Market and use them to hatch any standard pet egg. (Magic Hatching Potions do not work on Quest Pet eggs.) Magic Potion Pets aren't picky, so they'll happily eat any kind of food that you feed them!

After they're gone, it will be at least a year before the Cupid or Rose Quartz Hatching Potions are available again, so be sure to get them now!
