St. Patricks Day Party!

Hi Dragons!

I am very excited to tell you that Kingdom Island is celebrating St. Patrick's day! This is yet again another huge milestone for Kingdom Island as this is their first party!

There's green balloons, a pot of gold to roll in and a rainbow that stretches across the sky! Also have you noticed the first appearance of a bugz? Qazar has officially said that bugz will only appear when a party is close or on going.

I think that for the first party, Kingdom Island have done extremely well. I can't wait to see what else they come up with! Thanks!

Computer and IOS Version Have Been Merged!

Hey Dragons!

Today has finally come! Months have passed and players have been eagerly waiting for the merging of the online computer version and the IOS version! What does this mean though? Well... if you have an idevice such as an ipod, iphone or ipad then you can download the Kingdom Island HD app and it will be just like your playing on your computer!

As a gift for purchasing the HD version which you can do so by clicking here you get 4 new items that are very exclusive! They only cost 25 silver each which you can find lying around the island...
There a pilot's costume and a firefighters costume!

I love these news items, especially the pilot's jacket! This means now there will be a lot more players on the online version and the rooms wont be so empty anymore! A massive thank you to the hardworking staff of KI, this update is revolutionary, no other virtual world has done this and I think we should all be proud to be part of it :)

Item Design Contest 2013

Hi Dragons!

A few days after the launch of Kingdom Island online, Qazar announced a contest to design a maximum of 3 items that will be voted on and the winner will have their item made into the game along with a toy dragon figured sent to them!

Well! The contest has come to a halt and the winners will be announced at the end of the month. All the entries were fantastic and to be honest I would love for all of them to be made into the game haha, but there can only be one.

Here are the contestants...

A lot of time and effort has gone into these designs so I wish everyone the best of luck!

Who do you think will win?

Forum Update

Hi there Dragons!

Your probably checking out all the new updates in game, but the forums have updated too!

The forums are must more easier to navigate around and there are less threads as it was quite confusing because some people didn't know where to post. 

Also there is a new thread called "Kingdom Island Fan Sites"... This is where you can show off your blog and get it noticed by players browsing the forums! Great idea Wizdom! 

(Click for a larger picture)

I much prefer the new forums, its more clean and simple. I think the staff were up late last night judging by their tweet so thank you guys ^^

2.0 Update Is Here!

Hi Dragons!

For a month now the staff have been working extremely hard to update the game. They have slowly released sneak peaks throughout the month to keep us going but finally the wait is over! A lot has been added to the game, so here is everything!

Everyone got extremely excited before the update was released! Everyone was constantly refreshing and finally it came!

The first thing I noticed was that if you get your log in details wrong then this message pops up...

Then the big updates came rolling in! The next thing I noticed was that you can change your colour! There's Pink, Black and Orange. Also silver has been added to the game which is a different form of currency that you can get for free!

There are 5 new clothing items available. Some can be purchased with gold whilst others can be bought with silver.  

The next update is one that has been demanded by almost every player! And that's for the NPC's like Greeny and Elmer to come back!Well... here they are!

The kingdom island staff released a sneak peak last week with a picture of a new room. It looked like a ballroom or dining area, well you were right! However it's only for members who have 50 gold!

Heres what the new ballroom looks like!

The Game Moderators have been equipped with a safety belt to show that they are the real moderators!

There is also a burger stand in the harbor! So now you can go and enjoy a nice tasty snack!

A lot of players requested for the chat bar to be extended! Well it has thanks to your demand for it!

Lastly more emotes have been added to the game! Take a look!

The staff have worked so hard to produce these amazing updates! Don't forget that they have taken our ideas on board and incorporated them into the game as well! This update was definitely a month worth waiting! Thank you guys!

MORE UPDATES ARE ON THEIR WAY

Meet The Characters

Greeny

Greeny is known to be "the nicest dragon on the island."
He's always available to help out and knows how to turn a
bad situation good. Usually, greeny can be found hanging around t
he movie theater!

Bigly

Bigly is well, a tad overweight. He's always eating and can't
seem to break the bad habit! He doesn't like to walk around the
island too much and generally can be found sitting on the throne
chair inside the castle!

Bibby

Bibby is young dragon who thinks he's a wizard! Unfortunately, he's not but he has a great drive in achieving his goals. Bibby doesn't have a favorite spot on the island- he walks all around and is always looking to have a friendly conversation with other dragons!

Elmer - The Elder
Elmer is quite old and was one of the first dragons to set foot on the island. Along with his friends the Bugz, he holds clues to the history of the island. Sometimes he forgets what really happened and makes things up... making it hard to know what is true or not. Elmer can usually be found in courtyard by the old tree.

Lola

Lola is a very social and knows all the other dragons on the island.
She really enjoys building sand castles on the beach and can
usually be found there. On occasion,she visits Elmer in the courtyard
 for fashion advice.

Spinno

Spinno is a little crazy. He spends almost all of this time conducting 

experiments and rarely sees the light of day. Little is known about 

Spinno, but there have been reports that he is trying to take over 

Kingdom Island!

Bugz

Bugz are the other inhabitants of the island and have been
here long before the dragons. Bugz are Elmer's helpers, they know
all the history of the island and can be a great help when looking
to unlock the mysteries or find treasure. Bugz show up at random
and only come out when help is needed.

Obstacle Dash Guide

Obstacle dash is like a mini game. You can't play it in game. The only way to get to the game is through the main website or Click Here. In the game your embark on a quest to save the bugz from the evil
Spinno!

You can to run, jump, bounce and dodge lots of different obstacles that get in your way. 

There are 27 levels and you have 3 lives to be careful!!!

When you first start you will notice a tool bar at the top! It shows...

Your level, the number of lives you have left, the amount of stars you need/have,

music and the main menu button.

The main objective the the whole game is to of course save the bugz but each level has a certain amount of stars to collect. Just walk up to them to collect them!

However!!! Watch out for the spikes and other dangerous obstacles that are waiting to take your lives!

When jumping over gaps make sure you jump at the least second to make sure you cover enough distance.

Also another tip is that if you hold down the "up" arrow then you will jump for longer!

What level have you gotten up to???
