If you are really lucky and find the one plot on the Treasure Map where the jackpot treasure is, you will win the current Wheel of Fortune MP Jackpot which is always over 1,000,000MP

SITE UPDATE
On September 16th, MaraPets was taken offline for emergency maintenance for 10 hours. The server company had a rare fault with their power supply and they brought our servers offline without warning for 30 minutes while they fixed the issue. When the servers came back online they unfortunately had a few issues that needed repairing so that we continue to run without other problems, lag or downtime in the future.

We worked through the night of September 16th to repair everything and bring MaraPets back up as fast as we could without any loss of data or serious problems we may have had in the past. This was a success - we had invested in the past to make sure data is always protected here and that was our main priority.

Having 10 hours where Marapets was offline was not good enough for us and since then, we have negotiated a great deal with our server company to DOUBLE our server capacity. This doesn't mean we'll never have any issue ever again but it will keep us open and running whenever small problems, like what happened September 16th, happen. Our goal has always been to protect data no matter what - if something broke or went wrong, a day or so of downtime wasn't a problem so long as nothing was lost - but now we have double the capacity to still have this protection and stay open and running while we are fixing the problem and shouldn't need to close for 10 hours again for such a minor fault.

As always, we'd like to thank everyone for their patience and to the Account Upgrade buyers who have helped keep Marapets constantly improving over the past 16 years!

In 2017 we finally discontinued the Marahomes feature and all of the old Furniture and Appliance items became Toys. Over 70 of these items have now changed into these cute new pet Figurines. The full list of items that have changed is below. If you owned any of these items before they changed (or have added them to your collection) you still have these items, they have just changed to a new item!


Here is full list of items that have changed:

The Spy Costume was first released in October 2010 in Account Upgrades and the costume has been retired and neglected ever since. It was never popular and we tried several different 'spy' options to revamp this costume - the Traps event was supposed to be a way to catch one of the King's spies. We already have Mafia, Detective, Ninja and a few other costumes that would be similar to any decent alternative to the spy costume and what does a spy look like anyway? A real spy wouldn't wear a spy costume, they'd want to be annonymous and blend in! We therefore decided to change this costume into the new Evil Clown Costume. This costume will be an approved Halloween Costume for next month's Trick or Treat event and Evil Clowns are coming to Marada....

A new Evil Clown Account Upgrade Set has been released, with 7 new evil clown themed items, a retired Evil Clown Costume (those who already owned a Spy Costume will now have an Evil Clown Costume instead) and either an Evil Clown Enchanted Plushie or Evil Clown Potion. This set is on sale until October 26th.

You can choose if you would like the main prize to be an Enchanted Evil Clown Plushie or Potion.There is 1 in 3 chance you will receive a limited edition Sybri instead of Bolimo, Doyle, Ideus, Reese, Renat, Speiro, Xoi and Yakubi.

The Mahjong game in the Kamilah Desert now has 3 new bonus prizes that were previously won from our retired Mahjong flash game that you can randomly win playing this game.

There are also 45 Mahjong Tiles to be won. You will win a random one of these items each and every time you complete a game of Mahjong. These items are toys that your pet can play with but will also be needed for a new Pyramid feature coming next year.


The Mahjong game also has a new High Score List

Rapunzel's Tower has 10 new items on sale. The retired Pastel Costume has also been added to her shop for 300,000BP

The Kamilah Codes game also has a new High Score List

A new Poera Prey feature has been released in Eleka's Castle. Complete the Poera Prey Treasure Map to permanently unlock this feature. You can then play this for FREE once every 16 hours.

This map is currently in the Devil themed Account Upgrades set.

Move around the floor of Eleka's Castle to eat as much of the fruit as you can. Eat the fruit for your score to increase and your Poera to get longer. Watch out for the other snakes as you are Poera Prey and they will get you! If the snakes bite the end of your Poera, the score and size of your Poera decreases. The higher your score, the more RP you will win!

Find and eat any of the special snake eggs that may randomly appear and you will win prizes from the Prize List. Prizes include gourmet Poera Meat, Poera Eggs and special one use Venom items.

You can equip and use one Venom item per pet, per battle and they will remove between 50HP and 1000HP from any opponent AND block their attack. This will help earn extra BP in a battle really help any players who are stuck trying to pass any Goals or earn any Hidden Avatars that require you to win a battle against a very hard opponent! These venom items and magnets from Gizmo Gravity game cannot currently be equipped for battle but will be later this month.


The game will end whenever your Poera is caught by a snake. Just like in Venomous Victory, a venomous attack will earn your pet a random transformation, without risk of it ever changing! Your pet will only change to a random colour and/or species and then change back. If you have the Pet Stats Giftbox in your collection, you can also select which pet will receive the transformations before you play.


There are also 33 new gourmet food Poera Meat and Poera Eggs you can win whenever you find and eat any of the special snake eggs that may randomly appear while playing this game.

The Red Panda Costume is the latest costume to be revamped. The Red Panda Doyle, Gonk, Lati, Walee, Willa and Xoi have been updated to the newer design. This costume was last released as a prize from the Thanksgiving Gobble War event in 2013 but will be released again as a prize for a new game.

The Word Shark game on Minipet Island now has 8 new Bonus Prizes and 3 old items previously won from our retired Fropa Attack flash game that you can randomly win playing this game.

There are also 32 High Score Rewards to be won. You will win one of these each and every time you reach a certain score - with prizes from a score as low as 200 up until those who manage to score 10,000 or more! Prizes for this game include a Shark Tooth Necklace and Visor for your wardrobe, Enchanted Injured Flab, Equilor and Paffuto Plushies, gourmet food, glowing egg and more!



The Mine Marada game also has a new High Score List.

We'd like to apologise for MaraPets being offline for around 10 hours yesterday. As soon as it was bed time for us in the UK, the server company sent an email about a fault with their power supply. They had engineers working on the issue and they fixed it within 30 minutes. The problem for us is that MaraPets is very complex and is open 24 hours a day, only ever closed when we plan Maintenance and for the power to be switched off suddenly while over 800 players are playing and hundreds more 'guests' are browsing can cause issues.

Even though the servers were back online within 30 minutes, we were not happy with the way they came back online and through 16 years of experience dealing with every kind of problem imaginable here, we were not taking any chances! We stayed up through the night to reinstall five of the VMs (virtual machines) where the operating system was not performing the best or would only start in recovery mode and ran tests on all of the disks to make sure there we no issues. This obviously takes time and we opened as soon as we could, bringing back the most important parts of the site first. Without doing this, we could've opened sooner but if there were any problems, they'd still be there but could cause more serious problems later. We're back now and everything is up and running as normal.

Doyle, Equilor, Kaala, Quell and Zola can now wear the Devil Costume, which is currently part of the most recent Account Upgrades set.

All Devil pets will receive FREE TRAINING at the Gym and Elite Gym and FREE LESSONS at the School and University until October 1st.

The Capsule Machine has been refilled with new items. The previous items released in June have now been retired.

A total of 145,014 Traps have been left at 455 different areas of Marada. Now we just need to wait for King Baspinar and his army to leave his castle....

The Daily Discount was updated today to fix an error for several players and we had to reset it for everyone. You can now visit it again but any discount that was enabled for today will reset.

The new Costumes Boutique today stock its first random Account Upgrades Costume. The Moonlight Costume is on sale there for £4 AU until midnight. This means that only one more AU themed costume will appear in the shop this month, at any random day before the month ends. Since this shop now is automatically run, there will not be news updates or reminders about when they appear (unless it fits with a current event).

Players who have the Price Order Giftbox in their Giftbox Collection now have access to another new feature in their Attic. You can view all of the items in your Attic that are currently wanted by other players at the Wanted Ads. It will show the maximum price a player is offering for the item there and your items will be sorted in price order.


There are new WEEKLY perks for Bronze, Silver and Gold Shield players of the Progress Goals. Every Saturday there is a news update showing the new, randomly selected perks available for week for all those who qualify.

Gold Players (Level 50+)
Silver Players (Level 25+)
Bronze Players (Level 1+)

Introducing the new and improved... Costume Boutique

The Costume Shop has been replaced with the new Costume Boutique. Over the past 16 years we've released over 7,000 different pet colours - 78 species of pet and 206 different costumes! The first item ever added to MaraPets was the Blue Costume and for the first few years of us being open, there were always some costumes in stock at the costume shop. Fast forward sixteen years and the shop is pretty much always empty and making it stock more items only crashes the prices, making the costume easier to get but no longer wanted. The 'restocking' shop model that works well for the other 100+ shops on here does not work well for Costumes.We have therefore changed the shop to the new Costume Boutique. It has all of the benefits of being random and rarer costumes showing up less often but now it will be a fixed price and accessible to all! There are 151 Costumes that have been added to the Costume Boutique, organised into 4 different groups - 19 Colour Costumes, 9 Standard Costumes, 9 Premium Costumes and 114 Account Upgrades Costumes. Every day, a new costume is randomly selected from the Prize List to be sold here for that day only.

One of these 9 Premium Costumes will be selected at random each month, to be on sale for one random day in the month for a fixed price of either MP BP or RP. You will only know what costume is on sale at the shop on the day you visit. You will not be told when a costume is back on sale here or if it will be on sale for MP, BP or RP. There are 9 Standard Costumes and four of these will be selected at random each month. Each of the four selected will be on sale for a different, random day of the month and will be sold for a fixed price of either MP BP or RP. There will also be new costumes in the future added to the Costume Boutique. There are also 114 Costumes there were released as Account Upgrades Sets over the past 16 years. Although we continue to release one or two Account Upgrade sets per month, releasing new costumes hasn't really been an option while there are SO many that aren't avaliable - it would take another 12 years+ to release them all again this way. To help with bringing some of these back automatically, the Costume Boutique also randomly selects two of these costumes each month to be on sale here for £4 Account Upgrade Credits. Each costume will only be on sale for one day of the month and this will be selected at random. This means that only 24 out of 114 of these costumes will be sold for only 24 of the 365 days in a year - it should still keep them rare and limited, without making them unattainable. Any day that a Premium, Standard or Account Upgrades Costume is not on sale at the Costume Boutique there will be one of 19 Coloured Costumes on sale instead. Like the Premium and Standard Costumes, the currency required will be randomly selected to cost MP BP or RP and the prices are fixed and shown on the Prize List.

The Memory game in Biala Mountain now has 6 new Bonus Prizes and 5 old items previously won from our retired Memory Pets and Marapet Keeper flash games that you can randomly win from playing this game.

A new High Score List with trophies for players who reach the highest score playing Memory has also been released.


There are also 29 High Score Rewards to be won. You will win one of these each and every time you reach a certain score - with prizes from a score as low as 2,500 up until those who manage to score 10,000 or more! Prizes for this game include the Memory Pets Soundtrack CD and Memory Pets DVD from the retired Memory Pets flash game, socks, stamp, glowing egg and gourmet food.

Prizes also include new Memory Card items. These are toys for your pet to play with but if you delete them they will earn 10 Memory Points to spend at the Memory Shop.
 Level 50 or higher players earn 20 Memory Points deleting each Memory Card item.



The Rune Rescue game also has a new High Score List.

The Vortex Park Diner has new gourmet minipet Waffles on the menu. Play Waffle Wobble during the famous All-You-Can-Eat Waffle Hour to win one of these delicious new Minipets! A new Temple will be released in Simeria in the future and it will ask for non-retired Gourmet Minipets (like these Waffles and Minipets wearing a soon to be released Ball of Fat Yarn) and Wild Minipets, so you can start collecting these if you want to be prepared for its release.


The Wallop can now wear the Lightning, Pixel and Sparkle Costume and the Feliz can now wear the Bootleg Costume. The Island Murfin has been updated to match the new style, completing all of the revamped pet art for this costume!

The Reunite game in Lowlyhood now has 37 new High Score Rewards to be won each time you reach a high enough score in this game. Remember you will win the Level Rewards the first and only time you complete a level of a game and the high score rewards are won after this. Prizes include Ink that are School supplies and new love themed plushies.

There are also new Trophies for your profile for Reunite. Complete all 40 levels of every episode to earn a gold trophy. Complete three episodes for a silver trophy or two episodes to earn bronze.
