More about Fer.al

Hey Jammers!

Well, what do you know! A post two days in a row! Today’s is going to be a bit shorter than yesterday’s, though. 

Now, you might remember I said I wouldn’t be posting about Fer.al. Well, I lied. Kinda. After this post, I probably won’t be posting about it much more: after all, it is the Animal Jam Breeze, not the Fer.al Breeze. But I wanted to briefly discuss a few things I like about the game.  

The first thing is my favorite: the community. One of the first days I was on the game in early June (within a week of starting) I popped into Centuria (the slightly weirder, larger Fer.al equivalent of the pillow room) because I had never been there before. When I entered and after all the characters loaded, I was greeted by a row of players dressed in the colors of various pride flags sitting together on the stage. I had time, so I quickly threw together a nonbinary-flag-themed outfit (yellow, white, purple, and black if you didn’t know) on my kitsune and joined them. Everyone welcomed me and returned to shouting “happy pride month!” (again, early June). On the same day, I logged into both Animal Jam and Play Wild, threw together rainbow looks, and shouted happy pride in Jamaa Township. It censored the word “pride.”  So I eventually got around the censors, but no one joined me. Now, this is likely due to the age difference between the games, but it was interesting nonetheless. I also feel like a system of rarity has yet to develop as concretely as that of AJ, so I feel like people are also generally more friendly on Fer.al so far. Not dumping on AJ, I still prefer Animal Jam, but it’s interesting. 

The second thing is the dens, or “sanctuaries.” I honestly love the fact that we can expand and add rooms/floors as we go, as well as the fact that we have an outdoor and an indoor area, although I’d love to see more free sanctuary types (all the additional sanctuary types cost real money). And I like the way it’s 3D too - I know the whole game is 3D, but it’s a nice change from AJ’s more flat dens, although I prefer the creativity and freedom AJ’s dens provide. 

The last thing is the art style. I love the gorgeous, almost alien  but also natural landscapes. My favorite land has to be Mugmyre Marsh, although Lakeroot Valley is a close second (it’s too easy to get lost in the valley in my opinion). I also love the designs of the animals in general, especially the senri and the dragon. 

Anyway, that’s it for today. I will, however, continue my tradition of posting interesting baby animals, so enjoy this baby ball python :)

Hopefully I’ll start posting more often! Next post is back to AJ, don’t worry! :)
