What toys / games / special verb actions on items would you like to see?

A staff member asked this in Global the other day and got some interesting responses. One goal was to add more fun stuff to do with other players to increase cooperative play, another goal was to make cooking foods (other than Awesome Stew) appealing by having them offer special buffs or fun verb options and so on.

Some that we discussed: 

* Silly string from the Toy Vendor, just because. Virtual silly string won't stain or make a mess; it fades away after a few minutes but is colorful and amusing. You get to festoon various things like trees and other Glitchen; Glitchen who get silly stringed get a buff for being good sports.

* Game of Hot Potato (potatoes get a verb or option ("Hot!") that allows you to pass the potato to other players; the time the potato will stay "hot" is randomized, and everyone who touches it gets a little buff except the person who gets stuck with it. However, even if they don't get a buff because they didn't pass it on quickly enough, they do get a free potato!

* Cooperative and solo building with LEGO-style units that stack (something that may happen with new housing / furniture / etc. upgrades?)

What toys / collectables / games / special verb options on items would you like to see imported into the game?

I'd like to see the gems and crystals be useful for jewelry making or crafting.

Some players have asked for more dolls (like famous artist or famous writer or famous poet dolls, or more philosophers).

Some players have asked for collectible cards / card games.

  • More than ANYTHING I want to be able to eat notes.  I do not want it to be the default option, of course.

    Taking them to a shrine when they've served their purpose is something I never remember to do.
