Hey there, looks like you just wandered in. Why not have a look around and stay for a while, maybe even start your own adventure, if you're into that.

Welcome to December!

Hello everyone! Welcome to December, we hope you're keeping warm in the approaching cold.

Our eighteenth month of limited shops has arrived:
December's theme is the Mouseterie Sous Chef!

Behind glistening leaves and lantern's glow lies a hidden world of sweet
delights. The pitter-patter of tiny feet beneath the clatter of a baker's pan
promises a delicious treat.

What are Monthly Shops?

  • Every month, Pai and Oran from Peddler's Port will have different sets of items in their shops that will retire at the end of the month to be replaced by new stock.
  • These items are obtained from far away lands and follow the theme of the land they visited each month.
  • All retired items from Monthly Shops will eventually be able to be obtained very rarely from Grandma Agnes later on.

How can I get to Peddler's Port?
Peddler's Port is a seaside location that you can unlock by going through the main storyline in Louise Hill. Once unlocked, you can visit Peddler's Port any time without using up a town hop!

Pai's Shop of Wonders
Pai will host these 8 items in their infinite stock shop this month for 200 turnips each. A chest containing a set of Pai's items is now also available in their shop in addition to Agnes' Shop, to allow for more freedom in purchase making. If you spend 2000 turnips, you will be able to choose a free item of your choice! Free item claims will expire 6 months after obtaining them.

Agnes' Perpetual Shop
Agnes' shop stocks a chest that contains a set of Pai's 8 shop items for 1500 Turnips, ideal for collectors who want a full set at a small discount. Agnes also has a Bonus Prize function in her shop. For every 2000 turnips you spend in her shop from now on, you'll be able to claim from her Bonus Prize pool, which will fluctuate and grow with time.

What are Turnips?
Turnips are the untradeable premium currency of Dappervolk. You can purchase them with real life currency here, as well as obtain them occasionally through gameplay.

Oran's Emporium
Oran's chance shop will be stocked with these 9 items this month for 9,000 potatoes per spin! Each time you spend 100k potatoes in Oran's shop, you'll be able to pick one free item from his Bonus Prize claim. Bonus Prize items may change or grow as time goes on.
These monthly shop clothing items will run until December 31st, after which they will be removed to house January's monthly items!

A status post with a link to the stream will be posted when it begins!
We'll be working on wishes from the Wishing Well thread. Hope to see you there!

NICO'S ATELIER UPDATE
Our team has been hard at work on the new Nico's items, and we're finally ready to go!

The Nico's Shop update is on December 5th at 6PM DVT
Nico's Atelier will go on maintenance from 5-6PM DVT!

As previously mentioned, we are splitting Nico's Atelier into Nico's Atelier and Nico's Salon and adding all of our new items into the two shops. The shops will also have new bonus claim item rewards for accumulated purchases!

QOL UPDATES
We have been working throughout November on coding and testing a number of QoL updates, they'll be ready to go live early this month once we ensure their stability. The updates include a great deal of sorting, searching, and filtering options for various parts of the site, item tooltip enhancements among other things!

WINTER EVENT PREPARATION
We're working on assets, story, and planning for our January winter event which will take place some time in January, more info on this as progress goes on!

DAILY QUEST BALANCING & NPC UPDATE
We'll be working on each town's daily quests to rebalance them to be more user friendly. We're planning to roll out quest updates town by town, with additional updates to the NPC shops in each town for better site balance. More info on this will come in a future update!

ITEM REWARD POOL EXPANSIONS
This month, our artist team will be getting started on creating new items for our various item pools that contain recipe items, in order to bolster the appeal of getting rewards from said pools. Our recipe items will be moved to a dedicated NPC shop with its own stock and item sink system which will allow for users to choose the recipe they wish to get instead of getting lots of unwanted extras.

BETA CHANGELOG & ROADMAP THREAD
These two items are on our to-do list, and will remain here until they are complete!

    Thanks for all the infos! I'm very excited to see the Nicos update and the expanded item pools. Also looking forward to the dev stream like always!

    I'm sad about the short hair not having ears too. :( I'm someone who tends to prefer to use short hairs, so now using the short hair in this /Mouse/terie Sous Chef set, I won't have mouse ears.....which is the whole theme to the set.

    Luckily it's not really a set I'm super into, those plant items though omg <3, so I don't know how often I'd use the whole set for the theme. But still. There have been quite a few times where short vs long hairs that are from the same set/very similar in design miss out on colors or items that one has over the other. Why can't we get equal short and long hair of the same style?

    Most of my favorite items from this set are also in Oran's, which is amazing!
  • Villager Luvicks (#63364) 1 Dec 2021, 1:19 pm
    Super excited for those updates! The monthly set looks adorable. Thank you for all the hard work!

  • Villager ClearBright (#4344) 1 Dec 2021, 3:22 pm
    ok this is so cute
  • Villager Gaia (#528) 2 Dec 2021, 1:32 am
    Sounding like a broken record, but there's simply too many retiring items each month ... Not that I think it'll change. I've been saying this since the beginning. But eh, if I must be a broken record, I broken record I'll be.
  • Villager Aurora414 (#54771) 2 Dec 2021, 1:37 pm
    Miles better than the previous months theme
  • Villager TheWind (#26535) 9 Dec 2021, 5:44 pm
