Chicken Smoothie is like a virtual trading card game without a core competitive strategy
game and instead of cards, there are things like butterfly wolves and hamsters.
Last time we talked about Chicken Smoothie, I just started and outlined the basic features
for those unfamiliar with the game.
Now that I've been playing for a few months, I feel comfortable sharing some things I've
learned and giving a recommendation verdict.
Long story short, I recommend playing Chicken Smoothie.
Chicken Smoothie has a good balance of input for output.
You only have to log in a few times a month for a few minutes to fully experience the
game.
At the beginning of the month, you adopt your monthly pets, then if there are any additional
holidays that month, log in for those pets, and log in every once and awhile to check
how your pets aged or change in rarities, or accept trades.
You can definitely log in more often than that if you get caught up in trading.
That being said, there's a bit of overhead to clear before you can get comfortable trading.
Let's quickly go over how rarities work and the basics of how to assess fair trades.
I'm going to quote some bits from Hekomi's "Understanding Rarities" Guide.
Ok, so every month, there are new pets to adopt.
For instance, you could get 7 chicken eggs.
4 of those eggs will grow up to be the common variation of the adult, 2 will become an uncommon,
1 might be rare.
These rarities are dictated by the site's user size and how many pets are claimed.
Back in 2009, there was a confirmed guide that looked like this:
Very Common classified pets had a ratio of more than 1 pet per 3 users
Common pets had a ratio of less than 1 per 3 users
Uncommon had less than 1 pet per 5.5 users Rare were less than 1 per 25 users
Very rare were less than 1 per 80 users OMG so rare!
Were less than 1 per 1000 users
This rarity game is Chicken Smoothie's secret sauce and trading game crutch.
Because rarity is based on a ratio and that ratio is always kept even while the user base
grows, pets change rarity over time.
This means that some pets will change rarity from month to month.
Users crowdsource these changes on the forums.
This is why all of the special release pets from 2008 are high rarity.
The user base was much smaller when these pets were released.
Because more users have joined, even those pets that would have originally been classified
as very common have become rarer.
This means that two factors are going to define a pet's long-term rarity: the pet's age
and initial rarity.
But other things will play into this, because humans don't always follow binary logic
when developing preferences.
The deeper you get into the trading game part of Chicken Smoothie, the more you're likely
to hear about List Pets.
The Rare Pets List is a consensus-defined hierarchy of the rarest pets on Chicken Smoothie.
There are a few lists for different types of pets.
The main list has two sections with a gap between the rarities.
For reference, there's a pictured list and text-based list on the forums.
How do you know if you have a List Pet?
In my experience, you'll start getting lots and lots of trade requests for just the one
pet.
My one list pet is a "Dark Pink Shima Butterfly Wolf" that was gifted to me by a watcher.
This pet is not up for trade.
Because
of
shifting rarities and user demand, not all equal rarity pets are the same.
A general rule of thumb is to consider same rarity pets within a three-month span to have
similar value.
I can already hear the criticisms of this statement in the comments below.
I get that it's more nuanced than that.
I'm just saying that that's a general rule-of-thumb to start from.
When trading your pets, keep in
mind that you're totally allowed to value bunnies more than dogs or pink pets over green
pets.
Just like all other pet sims, you should make sure you're doing things because they make
you happy, not just because you're supposed to.
Find the pets you want and try to get them because you want them, not just because some
list says
that they're special.
And when all else fails, you can ask other people for their input.
My caveat to this is that you're going to get a lot of conflicting opinions.
Just read the comments on my last video.
Every time I've asked for perspective on trades, I've received reasons from well-spoken
outsiders for both the stance that it's fair and that it isn't.
I do have a question for you guys about trading etiquette.
Let's say a person sends me a trade for a pet that doesn't have an assigned rarity
yet.
Is it a rude to not respond to this trade until after the rarity is assigned?
This means that I'm going to leave the trade offer in my inbox and straight up not respond
for maybe weeks.
I don't think this is rude, but you guys might?
My favorite regular activity on Chicken Smoothie is the pound and I spend a lot of time with
the window open for the opportunity to snag a pet that's on my wishlist.
This game feature is neat and really adds to the strength of the trading game.
I love how simple Chicken Smoothie is.
I would love to do
an exercise in future-proofing the game or structuring it for mobile.
But that's something for longer down the line.
