Today's Updates: The Gold Puffle, New Furniture, Room Updates, and More! (Part 1)

Hey guys! Chill here. Today I'm going to take a short break from Games Month to talk about today's updates.

The big news here is that the Gold Puffle, which has been rumored for a long long LONG time, is finally available to adopt for members! But, just like the Rainbow Puffle we have to go on a quest to adopt it. First, take any puffle of your choice to the Pet Shop. The first thing you'll probably notice is the brand new Gold O'Berry station thing.
For 10 coins, members can purchase a Gold O'Berry to feed to their puffle, very similar to the Pizza Snack Station introduced last month.
Once you pull the lever, the O'Berry will shoot out and your puffle will eat it.
Then your puffle will get a Gold O'Berry icon above their head and have a gold glow pulse from them.
After that, just walk your puffle around the island. Instead of digging up coins and rare items, they can dig up one to three gold nuggets.
Once you've collected at least fifteen gold nuggets, head to the recently reopened and redesigned Cave Mine.
Put your gold nuggets into the jackhammer and... ta-da! You have your own Gold Puffle!
Then you can name it, of course.
Congratulations! You now have the long-rumored Gold Puffle. I named mine Nugget, cuz, y'know, gold nuggets. What did you name your Gold Puffle?  Anyway, here's how it looks on your player card.
And here's how it looks in the igloo. Here you can see its idle pose and doing actions. Sorry about the other random puffles, they wanted to get in on the action too I guess.

And here's how it looks on the Puffle Card.

Last but not least, here's the dancing and digging animations.
Also, unlike the Rainbow Puffle, Club Penguin has programmed the Gold Puffle into Puffle Launch and Pufflescape, however it doesn't have its own unique sprite yet, instead taking the appearance of the red and white puffles. As you can see I've selected Nugget in these pictures but he's definitely not gold here!

There's also a nice new rug for it at the Pet Shop, but as always you'll need to actually take a Gold Puffle there to see it in person.
The Gold Puffle is pretty cool, but that's not all there is this week.


The brand new Furniture Catalog is now out, which is EPF and wilderness themed in preperation of, you guessed it, Operation: Puffle. Can you believe it starts a week from today already? Unfortunately this catalog has no new hidden items to find, which is kind of a bummer, but it's great if you don't like having to look up stuff or spend hours looking for hidden items that just aren't there.

The first page is all new items. They are the Tall Snowy Tree, River Pontoon Boat, Hot n' Cold Crater, Puffle Kennel, and River's Edge. These items range from 150 to 250 coins.

The second page is also all new items. They are the Medic Tent, Frozen Ledge, Rope Climbing Wall, Log Cabin, Wooden Post, and Log Wall, all ranging from 100 to 300 coins.
The third page is returning items from Operation: Blackout. They are the Spy Car, Cardboard Herbert, Short Security Laser, and Long Security Laser, ranging from 200 to 900 coins.

The fourth and final new page is also returning items. They are the Safe, Containment Cell, Plasma Ball, Paw Print, Boss Desk, Rosewood Chair, and Emergency Light. These items range from 50 to 700 coins.

Personally, Club Penguin could've done a better job with this catalog. The items aren't very good by themselves, and you'd need a lot of other things to make something good out of these. Some of them also seem to be "DIY", (do it yourself) like the Log Cabin and the parts that go with it. I also think Club Penguin should start releasing casual furniture more often, like the Boss Desk or Rosewood Chair, and some new flooring. Like seriously, think about it - how long has it been since we got new igloo flooring?

In other news, several rooms have all been updated for the Gold Puffle Quest - but that's coming in the next post! See you guys then!

Chill is out, peace!

Today's Updates: Snack Station, Igloo Music, Catalogs, and More!

Hey guys! Chill here. How is everyone? I'm doing pretty good. Anyways, I've decided to talk about today's updates. Normally I don't do this but since Club Penguin released a lot of non-party related updates today, and they're all pretty big, I'll talk about 'em. Let's get started, shall we?

I'll start with the brand new Snack Station at the Pizza Parlor.


If you take your puffle to it, you'll be able to feed them a pizza for 5 coins. If you're a member, for 10 coins, you can get a deluxe pizza which sends your puffle's food meter to the maximum.


There's also the secret deluxe candy pizza. It's the exact same as a regular deluxe pizza.


 Next up, some new igloo music. This month, Club Penguin added 8 new and awesome tracks.


  • What Lurks In The Night - This is a brand new song we've never heard before. From the way it sounds, I have the feeling it's a brand new Penguin Band song. It sounds super epic so I'm excited to see what they do with it!
  • Party In My Iggy -  I'm sure you all know what this is. Club Penguin's latest song, Party In My Iggy.
  • Dare to Enter the Mansion? - This is an older song, it's the Gariwald's Mansion theme from last year. I've always liked this song - especially after the party ended.
  • Scary Ambience - This is a brand new... song, if you could call it that. It's not really a song, but you can hear werewolves, crows, and thunder in the background. That's about it.
  • Monster Masquerade - This song is a little bit older, but it's AWESOME. You could hear it in the Monster Room at the end of the Dark Chamber at the Halloween Party 2010 and 2011.
  • Seek and Hide - This is a really cool song that I'm surprised Club Penguin brought back. Now this was before I joined, so I'm not quite sure, but I believe this song played at the Halloween Party 2006.
  • Ghosts Just Wanna Dance - It's Ghosts Just Wanna Dance, but nothing like we've ever heard before. This time it's instrumental, and it sounds pretty awesome if you ask me.
  • Ocean Voyage - I have no clue why Club Penguin added this, but hey, it's here. This is a pretty cool song, but I have no idea when it played. Definitely in the earlier years of Club Penguin. It might sound familiar to you newer penguins, and that's because it was remixed for Rockhopper's Quest in February 2012 which now plays in the Ship Hold and Captain's Quarters.
Next up, we have the new Penguin Style. It's pretty cool, and considering how Penguin Style has been this year I'm glad they've gone back to more event-themed catalogs. Although one thing I still don't understand is those "rebellious teenager" outfits. :/



The new Igloo Furniture catalog is pretty cool too. Another thing I like is the new concepts, the party pack and the candy pumpkin thing.


There's also a brand new igloo, the Eerie Castle, which looks really cool. Unfortunately due to lack of coins I don't own it at the moment.


 Another update is that we can FINALLY use hand items while walking our puffles! I decided to be weird and demonstrate it by walking Flare alongside a puffle.

I think this was a great update day. Do you like the updates this week?

Chill is out, peace!
