Jamaaliday Rescue + Nonmember Clothing Shop

Hey Jammers! Today there's so much to say, so much to tell you about-- but so little time to do so!

The Jamaaliday gift is a candy cane tie, and the new item is a (Nonmember!) pinecone necklace!


The pinecone necklace is sold where else, but Jam Mart Clothing.

There is also a new Jamaaliday themed home screen!


I think it's cute, but I'm hoping that AJHQ doesn't just make every home screen holiday-themed and that there is a new cool default for average days. I'm a bit tired of the alpha one...

When I got online, I noticed there was a new seasonal adventure: Jamaaliday Rescue!



It has the same basic "it's up 2 us to SAVE CHRISTMAS!!!!11!!" plot line, and despite it's similarity to the corn maze, it's way more complicated and bigger. AJHQ just keeps making these adventures bigger and better!

The reason why I'm not making this post as early as I could be is because I spent all morning playing Jamaaliday Rescue. I reached the 400 gift mark (I needed 50 more for the final prize) and when I got to the center, I accidentally clicked the green portal before I could get the final gift. -_-


This adventure is laggy. And I mean really laggy. My computer is super fast because I rarely have more than one tab open at once (plus, it's a mac), so if your computer is regularly slow, I advise not playing for too long.

This adventure is NOT timed, you have all the time in the world. You can get multiple gifts depending on how many gifts you collect. The maximum number that you can collect is around 450.

There is both a member's only gift and a nonmember gift. Members get both, nonmembers get one. If you're a member you can get 8 because there are four boxes!

Here are all gifts except the 450 ones and the final ones:



Before I move onto the next thing, here are some tips:

1. Try to fill up the whole map. That way, you get the most gifts.

2. The center of the labyrinth is not located in the dead center of the map. It leans a little to the left of the big center question mark. 

3. Don't get the final gift in the center if you haven't gotten the four boxes yet. There are a lot of gifts lying around inside the center. Pick those up first, and if they're not enough, continue exploring the map for more gifts. Come back to the center later.

Okay, now onto this idea I have for the Jamaalidays:

A nonmember clothing store.

I will trade colored nonmember clothing items to nonmembers for only necklaces. (The 45 gem ones in Jam Mart Clothing.) I thought it would be a really nice thing to do!

If only there was a way to stack literal clothing items inside a den, haha. But I'll manage!

Now I'm going to play Jamaaliday Rescue again... Wish me luck, and happy Jamaalidays!

Jamaa's First Nonmember Balloon!

Hey Jammers! The Jamaaliday gift today is new-- not rereleased!


And on the 12th day of Jamaalidays, AJHQ gave to me
the first ever nonmember balloon (yeah it doesn't rhyme)

I'm sorry I don't have much to say right now, but know that sometime this weekend I will try to update Berry the Koala!

So I need to catch up on a few things

Ok, so I've realized that I have a ton of schoolwork that I've been putting off, so I'm going to be using the rest of this week to work on it. I'll probably be able to post tomorrow and Friday, but they most likely won't be very detailed. Plus, the blog renovation I promised will be delayed until this or next weekend. And then there's the Buddy of the Month and Berry the Koala to consider...

So in conclusion, I won't be as active on AJ and this blog. I will be active, but just not as much as I could be.

Ok *deep breath* see you in Jamaa!

Glitchy Cocoa

Hey Jammers! Today we have the Jamaaliday Gift, and a very strange glitch in the Hot Cocoa Hut. 

Soooo, here's the gift:


And on the ninth day of Jamaalidays, AJHQ gave to me,
a cookie that I sadly can't eat♫ 

And now, the spooky glitch:


Now this is NOT my image. It's from Animal Jam River, run by the user in the picture (and possibly more, I don't know). This is supposed to help you change the temperature of the hot drink you make, but when I tried multiple times with multiple types of cups, nothing appeared. So until I know if there's an exact combination of things like, coffee, marshmallows, tea cup, etc., I'm going to call this a glitch. 

Plus, it looks like it's in a bit of an experimental phase in the screenshot. Maybe something like this will come up in a later update officially? If so, I hope it doesn't completely remodel the Cocoa Machine-- it's one of my favorite features on AJ. 

Let's cross our paws, or claws, or talons, or whatever that that will never happen! :)

Happy Jamaalidays!

22 NEW Animal Jam T-shirts in AJ Outfitters!

Hey Jammers! I didn't include this in my last post because I just checked AJ's online merchandise shop after I published it. I'm not sure if anyone knows this, but there is a TON of new T-shirts in the clothing section, as well as sweatshirts for the colder seasons.


I zoomed out as far as I could go to capture the maximum amount of stuff and I still couldn't get it all. There are shirts with each alpha, each animal-- and some have multiple colors. 

How come I haven't heard about this until now!?

EDIT: There's also some new mouse pads, tote bags, and even a school binder!
