Hello
Welcome to Animal Ares!
To get started you'll want to buy some animals! You can buy animals from the corral with corral tokens or from other players. The corral has a limited supply of animals available at a time, so keep checking back if you're looking for a specific breed.
You can earn free corral tokens by completing goals. Completing goals will also help get you started in playing the game earning many great rewards to help you care for your animals.
Visit the Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) page to get some quick answers to common questions. You can also ask other members or staff for help on our Help Forum Page.

New Showing Method! - Over the course of the next few days, a new showing system will be implemented. The main point is to make it so the game has to create fewer auto shows, while still supplying enough for you guys to enter your animals in.
- You will notice a new showing type: General. This option is only available to upgrades. It is used as a SECOND showing specialty/discipline. This means it is in addition to the other, enabling players to enter their animal into MORE shows. For judging in shows, the game adds up ALL of the stats, then divides them by 20. To train into this discipline, please click Training Links -> General Training. An animal must already have a specialty in order to be trained into General.
- You will notice a new showing level: All. This means that an animal of any level of this type of discipline/specialty will be able to enter. Obviously, it wouldn't be fair if stats were considered for judging on this one. For judging in shows, the game randomly picks the winners. EVERY animal has an equal chance of winning, regardless of stats!
- Auto shows will no longer create individual levels...they will all be set to "All" as the level. This should -greatly- reduce the amount of shows created per night. Auto shows also now create 50 of each discipline [since seperate levels are no longer needed].
- There's bound to be bugs with this; feel free to post on the bugs board if you find any! Again, this new system is in testing and it will take a few days for things to level out. I'm also not 100% done with it.

Welcome to Animal Acres! - Animal Acres is officially open!! I can almost guarantee there will be bugs [such as currently, the rules page and TOS page do not show up...this is because they are being rewritten]...don't panic, just head on over to the bug board and report 'em there :)
- There are some minor new features, such as the minichat, plus minor adjustments to the way the game was run before. You must now wait 3 days to breed your animals after you purchase them from the store. Only 2 auto shows of each level and discipline are created each day (otherwise, about 3,200 shows PER DAY would be created). Upgrades, you will be able to create 10 shows/week as of next Friday; non-upgrades, I believe I upped your limit to 5 :) There are a TON of new things to trade AACs for! Check out the upgrade page :)
Mods Needed- I've deleted all mods except those that have already re-applied for modship. This means I need more mods! I'd like to have around 20 total. Interested? Message me [at this account] with: age, how long you've been playing SS/AA, prior experience, and why you want to be a mod. Make your entry unique. Thanks :)
Item Drawings Needed!- I've deleted all item images...I like stuff to conform, and let's face it...they didn't match eachother. Sooo...I need you to help create more. The requirements are that the image MUST be .gif or .png, be 100 x 100 pixels, have a white background [or clear if it looks good], can't be fuzzy at all [hence the .gif/.png requirements], be drawn by YOU, and that you agree the image will become the SOLE PROPERTY of AA. This means you can't resubmit that image to another game. The prize is 1 AAC per 5 images. Have fun :P
- I know I didn't cover everything in this update, so don't be surprised if you find other changes through-out the site. :) Enjoy!!
