I would like to see additional housing options that would not only give max characters more options and something to do, but would enhance the 'alternative' parts of the game for all players. This idea also provides potential for additional revenue for KI.
My request? Housing Modules!
We already have dungeons (Winterbane and Pagoda) that are a type of add-on module for a castle. I have seen several ideas for expanding this, and have some of my own, so I'll list them here. These could either be zones that you enter (like a dungeon or the Fish Bowl), or for simpler programming be a sigil with a pop up like the Pet Pavillion and Fairegrounds games.
***************
Gardening Shed: Place to store extra seeds, possibly a mini-game to restore a few energy points per play with a maximum number of points earned per day.
Pet Shop/Zoo: A place to store and display your pet collection. The ideal would be that any visitors to your castle could mouse over a pet and see the talents, stats, and type. I would love to have something similar to the Zoo in Zafaria!
Pet Academy: You could train your pets at your own castle without having to play the games in the Pet Pavilion. I spend so much time just failing the Dance Game that I could spend questing, decorating, or doing other things. The idea here is that you just feed snacks and the energy decreases just the same as if you were playing a pavilion game; you just don't have to wait for the game to cycle through.
Treasure Card Library: A place to store your extra treasure cards; this could even be part of the shared bank so you could transfer to other characters on your account.
**************** I would happily pay crowns for these add-ons but could see one or two made available for a large sum of gold. They could also be super-rare drops in-game. Purchasing modules would increase your storage accordingly. Maybe adding 20 slots each? Also, each character on the account would need to purchase their own modules just like any other item.
This would also alleviate issues of players maximizing their storage. Yes, you would pay for it, but KI wouldn't have to dedicate additional server space for all players, just those who choose to purchase the modules.
So what you do think? Does anyone have any other ideas for modules?
I like how you think. These are great ideas. I have no programming experience so I don't know how hard they would be to compliment but I really like them.
