Month In Review: January 2014
Hello penguins and caveguins! It's Echo006 with a unique post that hopefully I'll be doing every month. It's all about the previous month that we've enjoyed on Club Penguin, as well as a glimpse at the next!
And in other news...
So in February, the Fair will be making it's return, with some arcade games! And also, in March we'll be having our first takeover of the year! The Muppets: Most Wanted will be taking over our island. See you next month, when I'll be reviewing the Fair, the return of the Penguin Band, the Penguin Style and Furniture Catalogs, as well as
2014 was kicked off with a bang, and immediately, we knew that we would be going back in time again. At the Snow Forts, a message had appeared in the snow. Gary was soon investigating and discovered it was from his great ancestor Garugg.
The Penguin Style had some great fashions, including a new Penguins At Work outfit! The prehistoric outfits from the Penguin style were awesome. Check them out below!
In the second update of 2014, Gary's old time trekker made it's re-appearance. But we couldn't use it just yet. It took a week to calibrate. This was because Gary had been to the future...without us. Of course, it's a mystery of what he saw, but I'm sure he saw something he didn't want us to know. It's far more dangerous to go to the past than the future, as we later discovered. The furniture and igloo catalog were merged together to make an easier to find catalog. However, this resulted in some of the igloos leaving the old catalog, but the old cave igloo made it's return for the Prehistoric Party.
The furniture in the catalog was great, and very prehistoric. Some old items returned from last year, with some awesome new ones too! There were tons of awesome igloos. Check them out:
The next update was the biggest one of January. The time trekker was active, and penguins began to travel to the past. Caveguins began to dig in the Dino dig stations around the island. We could find 20 different eggs. The same 12 as last year with 4 new raptors and 4 new WHAT! But the best bit was finding a Dino Puffle. Once you had found a Dino Puffle or completed a Dino set, you were able to get a free prehistoric item. The Dino Puffle eggs had to be equipped, and then taken to the volcano. Patches of rock lit up and we had to waddle onto them. Once we had done that three times, our Dino puffles hatched! A new type of Dino Puffle was available every other day, including the Blue and Red triceratops, the Black and Purple T-Rexs and the Pink and Yellow WHAT. But of course, penguins wouldn't be able to keep all these puffles because they already had the maximum of 20! That's why Club Penguin doubled that number and added a backyard. In the backyard, your puffles are kept! You can only have 10 puffles in your igloo now and the other 30 in your backyard. And the best part - puffles' stats in the backyard stay the same forever.
The prehistoric island was exactly the same as last time, except now they have an active volcano, a pizza parlor with drive-thru and cars as well as a hair and beauty salon! Members were able to transform into dinosaurs, and made very annoying sound effects! It was great fun transforming and revisiting the prehistoric island as well as getting the cute wild puffles. This is the Prehistoric Island from last year, when we first visited it. Log on to Club Penguin now to discover what changes have been made!
...Welcome to this Prehistoric Island! As you can see, there's no snow here currently. Watch out for that dinosaur! Anyway, grab some items (the total cost of around 8000 coins) and let's explore!
...Now, you're going to have to dig for dino eggs. Yes, just click over there in the corner and you'll find yourself playing a game of Treasure Hunt only on your own and you don't get any stamps!
...Let's head into the restaurant! Even in Prehistoric times, the food was quite tasty! Just not cooked as well..
...Now, keep roaring in different places on this island to win a very special prize ~ LAVA! It's pretty much the same as at the Halloween Party, only with dinosaurs :)
...Here is the best place to dig for dino eggs! Collect all 12 to win a special prize and you'll also get to be any of the 12 dinosaurs. 4 different colours of each dinosaur!
...Here you can warm up by the campfire, and also sail in a boat! I didn't know dinosaurs had boats :)
...Wow, this place is quite interesting! Back to the restaurant for more yummy food :)
...Here is the T-Rex Deadlands! It's pretty spooky, so you might want to turn into a dinosaur.
...Woah, check out this amazing forest! There's even a waterfall too :) Keep digging for eggs!
...Here is the flying dinosaur's cove. (The name which I cannot pronounce!) You can soar through the sky, and through each hoop. But bear in mind that it's only for flying dinosaurs! You'll have to dig for that egg...
...And last but certainly not least, the iceberg's amazing secret! Yes, I thought that the iceberg in our Club Penguin island arrived here from Herbert, however it appears that it wasn't the same one!
However, on the last update of January, things began to go terribly wrong. In the past, the shark (the secret to the untippable iceberg) escaped. It can now be seen swimming every hour in present day Club Penguin!
So, that's what happened in Club Penguin in January! Now it's time for my opinions on what has happened:
Dino puffles are adorable. They and the backyards are certainly the best thing since rainbow and gold puffles. I am absolutely certain that we're going to find more "wild puffles" throughout the years. Hopefully, the maximum amount of puffles will be raised too. However, I wish all non-members got to have one Dino Puffle (maybe blue or red) so they could share experience. I don't like the fact that we can't care for the Dino puffles in our igloos, but that's what happens when you adopt wild puffles! I'm so glad club penguin made this Prehistoric Party Puffle based, with lots of different stations around the island.
Backyards are great! They change to the background of your igloo location! However, the puffles seem to be very bored in the igloo. So I would've hoped we could decorate our backyards, but with 40 puffles at one time, CP know that would be laggy. So I think we should be aloud up to 20 Puffle items like beds, furniture, food, and anything from the Puffle catalog.
The Prehistoric Party was a massive hit. Transforming was great, and this year there was no glitches which is a massive improvement to transforming. Of course, we can't expect Club Penguin to make loads of new rooms for the party. But I'm glad they made a few new rooms and features, but I love the old rooms too!
I've noticed that every month, Club Penguin seems to be advertising igloos more and more. At the Holiday party we had train stations, and now at this party we had Digloos! I like how these items are active for a certain amount of time, and are quite cheap. It's great that they're trying to get penguins to visit igloos more and more.
And in other news...
So in February, the Fair will be making it's return, with some arcade games! And also, in March we'll be having our first takeover of the year!

Backyards are coming to Club Penguin!
Heard the news? Polo Field has posted it on the blog!
Yes, that's right! We can adopt up to 40 puffles and keep them in our backyards! How awesome is this? It seems like we'll all be having backyards because once you're a member and turn into a non-member, where would all them puffles go? Are you excited for Dinosaur Puffles...and backyards?!
There's a message in the snow!
It's 2014, and what a way to start the new year by going back in time? Looks like somebody's left a message...for Gary! Did you hear that he's adopting his first puffle? Vote on the penguin poll for what his name should be! But for now, Gary is investigating this strange message in the snow...
But how on earth did this message from the past get here? Maybe we'll be seeing the Time Trekker very soon! In other news, check out those prehistoric fashions at the gift shop!
Farewell 2013, Hello 2014
I hope you all had a great christmas! I certainly did, and guess what I got? A laptop! Yes, that means I can finally start blogging again. 2013 was a great year, and I really enjoyed it. But sadly, I stopped blogging for a while towards the end of the year. There are a few good reasons for this:
1. My computer that I used previously got a virus and started to become really slow.
2. I had a really busy summer and couldn't fit time for blogging in.
3. I started playing a lot more on my iPod and the iPad and tweeting alot.
4. I moved schools, resulting in more homework and having to walk to school in the mornings and on the way home!
Now that I'm settled and finally have my own laptop to start blogging again, I'm going to make an effort to start up again. After all, Club Penguin is the reason I've come so far with this. I hope you all have a happy new year and I'll start posting again with pictures and lots of other brand new things :)

The Wilderness!
The wilderness is a place where mysterious begin. It's a dangerous and unsafe place for penguins to be. I've even written a story about the wilderness! PSA agents often explored the wilderness in the old missions! And now the EPF is moving into the wilderness to find Herbert's base, locate puffle chips and stop Herbert's plans! Herbert sure does like hiding in the wilderness! Anyway, have you ever wondered what was behind the ski village, near the mountains? Well, there are a few rivers, and if you zoom in a little...
...you'll see this! Behind the dojo and the volcano and waterfall, there is a huge river! EPF have set up camp in the wilderness, and there's a training course too! You can also ride along the river in boats! There are even some rapids, but behind the Ski Village and the Dojo, there is definitely lots of amazing things!
Here are a few of the river rooms! You can see which puffles are under mind-control and digging in the areas!
Wow! The rapids look amazing! Be careful you don't get whisked away into the whirlpool! The wilderness is a great mysterious place, and I bet there's lots of secrets in there that we've yet to uncover...
This is the EPF's base in the wilderness! Here you can work on the computers and plan your missions!
Smoothie Smash Glitch
I have been playing the Smoothie Smash game, to have a refreshing beverage while Operation Puffle is on, but I wasn't very good at the game! I made a few wrong moves, and ended up not gaining any coins, but getting -6000 coins!
Heading to the migrator!
I've asked Rockhopper if I can stay on his ship while Operation Puffle is on, because it's very dark and I'm not too keen on having my puffles under mind-control, so I've brought them with me! But Rockhopper isn't too happy about it!
Operation Puffle is on now!
Hey everyone! Echo006 with some important news here! Operation: Puffle is on now! And here's what's happening: Herbert is using mind control helmets to force puffles to dig up coins and bring them back to Herbert using underground tunnels!
I think that Herbert needs all these coins for something. Maybe a machine that he's made to heat up the island, using the heat from the boiler room/ He'll have to insert the coins into the machine to get warmth, but why go through all this trouble? Couldn't we just give Herbert a nice house and a warm boiler?
My New Gold Puffle: Treasure
Hey everyone! It's Echo! I'm back and hopefully making a comeback to blogging! Sadly, I won't be able to post very often, but I'll try my best!
Anyway, here's some awesome news: I've adopted a gold puffle! And I've named him Treasure :)
He has dug up so many coins! Plus, I've found loads of gold items, including Gold-D glasses, the gold lei, the gold car, gold bunny slippers and tons more as well as about 8 gold lava puddles! He's a great dancer too!
I love my new puffle, Treasure!

My Penguin 1.2 Update!
Hey penguins! Yes, it's me, Echo posting from the iPad. Summer's almost over so I'm getting back on track! Here's an exclusive post about all the cool new features of the FREE My Penguin app :D
Most of the things are just the same like sushi drop, and dressing up your penguin. A few noticeable features are the new map which shows you what games you can play and also Igloo Village and editing your igloo! Let's start with the games...
Click on the map or the games icon on the new chat bar feature. This map will show up!
If you've ever played Jetpack Joyride you would understand how this game works! Tap to go higher and if you don't tap you'll stay low near the ground. Keep your finger on the iPad to stay up high! It's very simple!
Make sure not to hit the obstacles!
Hit the jetpack to get your bar full! When it's full tap on the jetpack at the bottom and you'll get a huge boost and can fly through obstacles!
The robot penguin will help you! If you crash into an obstacle, it will keep you going and the robot penguin will disappear!
Igloo Village is great fun! You can visit your friend's igloos, popular igloos or everyone who is on Igloo Village currently!
Let's start with the home page. It used to look like this:
But now...
There's lots of games you can play! There are three new games. Bean Counters is just the same as on the computer, but with a few extra details and of course, using your fingers to touch instead of a mouse to move! Jetpack Boost is an all new game...
This is a great game! It can be quite hard, but easy when you get the hang of it!
There are also goals to complete which give you more coins! That's all for this game!
Pick an igloo to visit...
The best part about igloo village is the 3D penguins and interacting with each other!
You can also chat with each other!
Decorating your igloo is easy! Just click on the igloo edit button in the corner, and drag the item you want to put in your igloo onto the screen! This is how my igloo looks!
