Haven't been playing neopet for a few months and since then we had the Altador Cup and this new thing called Key Quest.

This is a multi-player game that you are able to chat with friends as you play Key Quest.

The information below are taken from Key Quest Tutorial.

Some Background Info

You have to try to collect the correct number of keys and be the first to reach and unlock the goal door. Players can choose how many keys they would like to collect in a specific game. It can be a two-key game up or a five-key game.




This game can be played by 2 -4 players.
Before the game begins, each player must choose a character token to represent them on the game board. You are given a choice of 4 free tokens, though other tokens can be collected or purchased throughout Neopia.

Selecting Token

Each token has a specific alignment. That's Earth, Air, Water, Fire, Light, or Dark. (reminded me of those faeries)



Earth Token:
The wisdom of the forest, the force of nature, and the beauty of flowers.

Air Token:
The power of the elements at your very fingertips!

Water Token:
A magic as deep and ancient as the ocean itself.




Fire Token:
Brilliant, beautiful, but dangerous. Don't get burned.

Light Token:
All that is good and pure and bright in the world.

Dark Token:
Those who dabble in darkness, beware getting lost.
