News Archives/2016

Some times old news is still good news. All news archives from the Wiki will be kept here. The wiki news covers both what is happening with the game, but also changes that are being made here.

January 2015

 * 23rd January 2015 again: Top10 Lists have been enabled across the wiki. These work a lot like the polls on the main pages except that they are permanent separate pages. Check out the Top10 (well.. 27) Favourite Pictures to get an idea how we could use them, and don't forget to vote for your favourite picture while you are there. This week's poll will ask the counter point - which is the most hated picture?
 * 23rd January 2015: This weeks poll asked readers how long they have been playing The Secret Society - Hidden Mystery. Players of all experiences responded, with nearly every option receiving a vote. 66% of players have been playing between 2 months and a year, but some players have been around for as long as 2 years (2%) and as little as a few days (9%). A very warm welcome to the newest players, and many happy returns to the veterans out there.
 * 16th January 2015: For this weeks poll we asked what would you like the next update's theme to be. 40% of voters decided they didn't actually want a themed update at all, just an update full of new content instead. Spring (20%) and Victorian Times (10%) were the most popular amongst those that did like the idea of another themed update. Despite a late surge in votes, the Zombie Apocalypse Update (5%) probably won't be winning any popularity contests any time soon. Pity! Of course this is just a community poll, and won't change the fact that we are most likely looking at a second Valentine's Day Update next.
 * 8th January 2015: Happy New Year to all SS players! The results of our last community poll of 2014 are in. We asked which of the new pictures was your favourite to play. 42% of voters think the newest holiday challenge picture, Winter Street, is the best. The last holiday challenge picture, Forest House, came in second with 22% of votes.

December 2014

 * 17th December 2014: The Christmas2014 update is now out for Android devices in the Google Play Store!
 * 16th December 2014: The Christmas Wishlist poll number 2 showed that most (51%) players want increased gifting limits as they progress through the game, but having a way to sort friends (10%) or fixing the wishlists (13%) were also popular options. In the meantime, the update has landed and unfortunately none of the poll winners made the cut. But there is always the next update!
 * 13th December 2014: The Christmas2014 update is now out for Kindle devices in the Amazon AppStore!
 * 9th December 2014: The long awaited Christmas update has been released for iOS devices! Get ready for Christmas2014!
 * 4th December 2014: The results of the first Christmas wishlist poll are in! Over 50% of players want the option to buy more energy items with their coins, while a further 30% would like to buy more tools. Nobody wants to use coins to help their friends, as we got zero votes for the option to gift coins and for the option to buy strength items. Not quite the season of giving after all ;-)
 * 3rd Dec 2014: The Secret Society - Hidden Mystery Wiki has reached 100 pages!

November 2014

 * 27th November 2014: The results of this weeks community poll are in! We asked what is your current goal in the game? It looks like majority of voters (50%) are still working on their quests, but quite a few (25%) are also eagerly preparing for the next update.
 * 20th November 2014: The results of the latest community poll are in! We asked what was your go to toolthe game, and it seems we have a tie between Compasses and Seeker's Eyes! Interestingly, no one plays without using any tools at all.
 * 4th November 2014: The Halloween Update has been released for the PC's through the Windows App Store!

October 2014

 * 29th October 2014: The Halloween Update has been released for Kindle devices on the Amazon App Store! This update also contains the Treasure Island picture for Kindle players, as this platform did not receive the Treasure Island update.
 * 27th October 2014: A patch has been released for the Halloween Update on iOS devices. Version 1.11.5 is the same content as the original update (version 1.11) but contains fixes for some problems in the original update. It is recommended that all iOS players install the patch - this will not affect your timed Halloween Challenges, just make the playing experience smoother.
 * 24th October 2014: The Halloween Update has been released for android devices on Google Play!
 * 11th October 2014: This year's Halloween update has been released for iOS devices! Get ready for Halloween2014!
 * 1st October 2014: This weeks community poll, asking what platform everyone is playing on, showed a great diversity amongst players, with nearly every platform represented. Although, predictably, Apple products won out with 47% of the vote, it seems they are slowly losing their majority. In this poll at least, Kindle devices (24%) are coming on strong, beating Android devices (18%), which have had the game longer, as well as the newer desktop platforms.

September 2014

 * 24th September 2014: The results are in from our 2nd community poll, asking which puzzle is the most popular. Gem Match won, with Pipes a close second. Blocks has proven the most unpopular puzzle, with only one vote!
 * 19th September 2014:  The Treasure Island Update has been released for android devices in the Google Play Store!
 * 18th September 2014: The results are in from our first community poll, asking which game mode is the best. After a late surge of popularity winner, with 70% of the vote was Morphs mode! Admit it, it is because it is so quick to play...
 * 10th September 2014: The latest update has been released for iOS devices - introducing The Treasure Island Update!
 * 10th September 2014: Mac computers have finally gotten the Tavern Update!
