Hi there, dude! I’m Snailchob!!! I’ll be showing you around and helping you learn the ropes here! If you don’t wanna see me anymore, tick “Can figure it out myself”. Of course, I’ll get very offended, but will continue accompanying you if you press the “Tips” button. Ready? Steady? Let’s go then!
First I’m gonna explain all these buttons to you. If you don’t wanna listen to my babble, press “Next”. Starting to get cold feet at the sight of all these buttons and windows? Chill out!!! They are here to help you. All these buildings have been constructed to entertain you and will happily draw you into their embrace. In the left top part of the screen you will find an icon that shows the amount of money that you’ve got.
You can put all your presents and stuff into a backpack. So don’t sweat it! You won’t have to lug them around. If you want to have a look into your backpack, click on the “Backpack” icon in the right bottom corner of the screen. To use any thing from the bag, just pick the necessary thing and press the “Use” button.
Always be on top of things. Find out all the news (opening of new institutions or launch of new games) by reading our newspaper.
We don’t want you to feel lonely and cut off from the world. That’s why we placed a chat room at the bottom of the screen that you can use to touch base with other chobots. To make it even easier for you, we integrated a pictured chat into it. Pictures might help you write your messages.
Want your friends to know how you are feeling? Use the Smileys button at the bottom. Just click on the smiley that shows your current emotions best!
Let’s learn the nuts and bolts of the “Friends” button. With its help you can sort out the list of friends that you’ve made while playing this game. Pick a corresponding status (online – green, online in another city – blue, offline – red) to find the buddy you are looking for! By clicking on them you can invite them over to where you are. You can send them a personal message, too! That’s not the extent of it, though. There’s also a “Remove a friend” button and a button by pressing which you can open a new window with the chosen friend. PHEW!!! Done it!
Want your friends to know how you are feeling? Use the Smileys button at the bottom. Just click on the smiley that shows your current emotions best!
To help you avoid roaming around or getting lost in the city, we placed a map here. You can unfold it to see where you are and where you want to go. Just click on the place you’d like to find yourself in to get teleported there.
We decided to stick to the “there are more ways than one to skin a cat” principle. Another way to get to other locations is by clicking on the edge of the map or on the arrow.
Do you see colorful balls here and there? They are not just part of the “décor”. You can repaint palm trees by clicking on them. Point your mouse at a palm tree and press the left mouse button to aim a paint ball the first time; then release the mouse button to aim it the second time.
If you get sick and tired of the noise and tumult around, you can always get teleported to your home. Just click on the “Home” icon.
Congrats!!! I might’ve bored you to death with my non-stop chatter (sorry, I had to get it over with). There’s an upside to it, though. Now you are familiar with all the buttons on the screen! From now on I’ll be giving you tips during the game itself!
