Elf Island’s Free Public Beta Opening this Friday!
November 19th, 2008
This Friday marks the official opening for Elf Island’s free public beta! Come and join the fun for free by chatting with friends, playing games and exploring our exciting world full of possibilities.
It’s been a long and exciting road for our native elves. They’ve been working overtime preparing, fixing and building many of the fun features some of you’ve already experienced in our closed Elf Island beta.
The native elves are placing the finishing touches on our first GoodQuest - house building! Expect to see this GoodQuest and more fun features integrated into Elf Island as more and more Islanders join us. Timing for these features will be announced in the game and on our blog.
Here are just a few of the features you can expect to see from us soon:
- Our first GoodQuest: House building!
- More micro games
- More animated items to purchase
- More elf outfit selections
- Full access to the Field Guide
- Improved chat options and elf mobility
- Buying, trading or gifting items with other elves
- Achievement and status
- Our weekly multimedia newsletter – The Tide
- Tribes – Coming soon!
For you newcomer elves and for those who are our regular islanders, spread the word that we’re opening our Island for free to everyone on Friday! We look forward to playing with you!

Our Beta Re-cap
Monday, November 17th, 2008
We’ve received a lot of great feedback from those of you who have joined us on Elf Island during the past two weeks. Based on your emails and comments to our moderators, our island is really taking shape! We’re so happy that many of you are re-connecting with old buddies and making new friends in our world.
There are quite a few changes we’ve made since the first boat arrived to Elf Island. Here are a few areas we have enhanced and improved:
-Fixed the problem with items disappearing in the homes
-Made the avatars invisible when they enter a mini-game or a store
-Labeled the “Map”
-Chat/UI Lag - we’ve made major strides and will continue to improve the experience
-We also addressed an issue where players were sometimes not able to see other players’ names
Over the next week, we will be addressing:
- The Field Guide (as the week progresses you will see improvements with usability)
- Chat Logs: We are adding a chat log, so that players can read the chat in the room without seeing the bubbles overlap (or we will find a way to keep bubbles from overlapping)
- Mini-game widget: It will be easy to find, so exiting a game will be intuitive
- Fix layering issues with goods and the “edit home” button, so that an elf cannot walk through them
- Alphabetize the friend’s list
In terms of features, this week you should expect to see:
- The pie shooter micro-game
- New items/goods
- Improved Elf mobility
- Improved customization process
Islanders - stay close to our blog, we are planning to share an exciting development over the next few days!
