Halloween Loco Pocos Hunt!

Damien Fate created Loco Pocos last July to redefine tiny avatars in SL and create a magical, interative sim for SL-ites to explore and have fun with. Ash wrote a great post when it first opened, and now there is a Halloween hunt that you won't want to miss!

How does it work? It's pretty simple. You teleport into the main sim, then use the Halloween teleporter to get to the Halloween hunt area. Once there, you click on a sign that will give you a pumpkin. Most of us should choose the "human" one, but if you have a Loco Pocos avi, slap it on and choose that one!


Then you go from door to door, knocking on the ones that have lighted windows, strangely like in real life. You then choose "trick" or "treat" when it pops up on the door after you click it. Depending upon your choice, you get candy, accessories for Loco Pocos avis, and ultimately a key. You need the key to unlock the chest to get the prize - your own Loco Pocos avi!

You may have to knock on a lot of doors until you get the key, but it's worth it! The key will go directly into your pumpkin when you get a message you've received it, and you can click on the treasure chest to get your prize.

I have been wearing the female version of the prize avi, Frieda. There's one for the bois too. One of the coolest things about it is the hud that allows you to customize eye color and your accessories (like the pumpkin!). You can also make gestures and faces too. It's really quite amazing how beautifully integrated it all is.

I caught up with the great Damien Fate himself to snap this picture by the prize chest! He's riding on a broom (not holding something naughty!) and wearing the mummy avi that is available in his shop. If you love your avi so much like I did, you'll end up there too. I've been wearing a few things that are for sale, but the avi, the head bolts, the pumpkin and candy, and the giant candy corn backpack are all free!
