Hello Kitty Online (HKO) is the first and only official massively multiplayer online game (MMORPG) of Hello Kitty, Badtz-Maru, My Melody, Dear Daniel, Keroppi and the others! You adventure with thousands of other players and computer-controlled characters in a virtual world full of cuteness and kawaii. HKO provides a brand new experience in gaming with built-in social media like video sharing and blogs. HKO is free to play! Learn more.

[Updated Patch Schedule] On Thursday, July 29, 2010, at 00:00 EST (12:00 GMT+8), HKO will go off-line for about 4 hours for an update that will allow you to access multiple regions using one game client!

Your game client will automatically update itself when you run it, so you don’t have to do anything. If you haven’t installed the game yet, please head over to our download page and get our new 140MB unified playable installer.

Because the new game client lets you access servers that were previously separated, we had to make some adjustments. The most important thing to remember is that HKO now has Servers based on your preferred region, and on each Server there are Worlds. Your character is restricted to a single server, but can access all the worlds on that server. Play wherever suits you best!

 

The results of the HKO event Farm Your Flag are now in! We asked players to create a HKO-themed flag using only their in-game farms. Everyone did an excellent job and we had an awesome time reviewing all the entries!

 

Without further ado, here are the winning submissions for the Farm Your Flag event:

 

Have you ever had pesky little critters pop up in your farm? Moles have always nabbed crops from farms all over Hello Kitty Online, but now things are about to take an unexpected turn! From June 11-13, 2010 participate in HKO Mole Mayhem, a wacky new event unlike any we’ve had before!

Deery Lou has organized an event to help everyone understand how to deal with the naughty moles. The Scarecrows have been turned to Scaremoles, and the towns have been filled with delicious fruits and veggie decorations to celebrate the event. But “someone” was not invited to the festivities, and so he’s planning to mess things up for everyone else!

 

Defend the cities from massive mole attacks!

A certain “someone” has convinced the great Star Mole leader that the real goodies are not on the farms, but in the cities! So now the moles are on the move, invading city after city, hoping to steal all the fruits and veggies. Only you can protect the civilized world from the great mole horde!

  1. The moles have carefully scheduled their daily invasions. A few minutes before each attack, you will be alerted as to which city the moles are planning to invade and who is in charge of the city defense.

    • First invasion           4:00 PM (server time)

    • Second invasion      8:00 PM (server time)

    • Third invasion         11:00 PM (server time)

  2. Use your Sunbright Express train ticket to quickly reach the city indicated in the alert. During this event you can use the Sunbright Express as many times as you like free of charge as long as you have a Sunbright Express Ticket. You can get a special Mole Mayhem Ticket from city representatives (see below).

  3. Talk to the Sanrio character representative in charge of the city’s defense, and accept the quest offered. The representatives for each city are:

    • Beijing                 Deery Lou

    • Paris                    Melody’s Grandma

    • London               George

    • Florapolis              Scone

    • Sanrio Harbour      Kappi

  4. Once the moles arrive, find all 20 of them scattered around the city map and try to shoo them away. You only have 7 minutes to do so!
