Just to clarify, because the community is getting kind of upset that we haven't seen a single Miasmal Viperex yet, despite hours and hours of searching.

So: is Miasmal Viperex an actual in-game boss that's different from regular Viperex... or is just something being referenced for the new Miasmal Eye of Viperex RIG and does not (and/or will not) exist in-game?


I'm sorry I think I've gotten the release schedule mixed up. I thought the Miasmal Viperex is released already, but after asking the team, looks like it's not yet released. I'm sorry for the mis-information. We will post an update as soon as it is released.

can you make the kin dailies that you collect on the kindred homescreen reset at like 23 hours rather than 24? most apps with resetting freebies do something like that, since the time it takes to collect them makes doing it perfectly before bed or in the morning eventually fail.


Sorry I was going to do that bug it slipped off my radar. I'll have that changed later today. I don't know the code as well as LionHeart does so hopefully it'll work first try. sweatdrop

Is it possible to increase the encounter rate of Miasmal Viperex a little in lake kindred ?


They're just released so they're setup to be a little more rare, but later on we might adjust the rate again.

Hello guys, are you ready for halloween? this is my favorite month by far, can't wait for the halloween event and speaking of that, can we expect a LK halloween portion of the event?

We're working hard on the Halloween event, but we just finished updating LK for the summer event so the team will be taking a break from LK updates. The Halloween event will be it's own minigame.

Lake Kindred Bug

For the last two weeks I've been unable to get past the loading screen. I've cleared cookies and cache, and tried Chrome/Firefox/Edge web browsers with no luck.

Is this something that can be addressed?


I will check with Lionheart. I am not certain why LK isn't working for you but we will definitely do more checking to make sure it works 100% of the time.

It reminds me of an old bug I had because of too many kins in inventory. If you have some unused, try to store them in your storage and reload. It might or might not help.

I tried two accounts and on both I only had between 10-20 Kindred. It was never an issue before so I don't know.

I just tested your account at our office and I don't see any problems on our backend. Please check the console log on your browser's developer console if you get a chance and PM me the results. Hopefully that will point to some errors that we're not seeing at the Gaia office.

Would it be possible to, at some point, get things like healing potions available in bundled options in the in game shop? Right now, you can only buy them one at a time, which is very tedious when you're trying to stock up.

Bundles of five, ten, fifty and/or a hundred would make buying healing potions so much easier.


You're referring to [KINDRED] Small Heal and [KINDRED] Mega Heal , correct?

If so, I can put that on my todo list!

That would be the ones, yes.

Thank you! heart


The good news is that I can make it and you'll be able to purchase it in the Kindred Shop when it becomes available
The bad news is that you would still have to go to your inventory and open it like a normal bundle!

I'll try and tackle it either this week or next week depending on my other duties!

Because we all know I'm a kindred ho an LK fanatic.

Any chance that this unreleased shard (User Image) will ever be released? It looks like there'd be some pretty recolors inside. emotion_bigheart


That looks like a game item judging from the item id. It might be used for trading in for other items if it gets released. Sorry, no release info on the item though.

The kin that I made, The Crimson Tyrant Khaotix, has a sprite glitch.

The area around the base of the tail flickers in and out of existence.
And when the kin in worn in the forums, the affected area flickers purple.

Can this please be fixed?


We will look into fixing the kins.

Hey Staff! Good evening!

A question came up this weekend about the slimes which still drop from Hephaestus Peak. At one time a few years back when the peak was introduced, we got to dump the slime balls the Space Kittens coughed up into the convert-o-matic (we have not been able to since when the machine was brought back because it was only equip inclusive and the special items were not included).

The question:
May we please haz the machine back... maybe a slime-convert-o-matic version, again? So we can continue the clean up of that mess that persists.


I don't know much about convert0-o-matic but I'll talk to the team to see about how to handle the slimes.

Could we please see an increase to the drop rate for the new Miasmal Kin (Ember, Cabochomp, Jinbei, Wifi, Junior, etc.) in Eye of the Miasmal Viperex?

I know we've been asking for a challenge and we definitely appreciate the harder bosses, but... given how rare Miasmal Viperex is in the first place and how rare a drop the Eye is, it feels like a slap in the face when we get one of the other common kin*. And, based on the limited data I'm getting from users, we're much, much more likely to get one of those commons. It's a rare chance for a rare chance for a rare chance. (That was a mouthful. rofl )

Failing that, maybe they could be added to regular Eye of Viperex at the same ultra-rare drop rate. It'd be something, at least. Like how Sycamorte and Phantom Sycamorte seeds have the exact same drops.

If not, I do understand that it's still new-ish and the drop rates might be tweaked eventually, but it also didn't hurt anything but my pride to ask.

*The ones already available as in-game drops and from the original Eye of Viperex.


I'll revisit the number of grants given and adjust the drop rates after the Halloween event. Hope that'll help.

For the upcoming x-mas event, will there be any LK involvement? It would be great it we could have LK involved in events 2 times a year or so and I loved the last one.


Sorry we had a different idea going into the Christmas event so it won't be LK based. It is a pretty fun idea that has a lot of potential, and I can't wait to share more detail with you all.

Since LK won't be a part of the Christmas event (which is fine, I get it), could we possibly see some re-releases of wintery kin, please? Like last year in Mecha Neko/Rococo. That was fun. Things like Pure Snow, Snuggie the Bear, Holly Beary, Snobun, Dasher, and Kakigori. emotion_bigheart
We can re-release kins! If you haven't already, you're always welcome to request kins in the re-release request threads!

However, you will likely seeing a new kin sometime this month 👀

considering how little love the game is getting,could you not "lock" new kins behind something like Lucky Catch and as extremely rare rig drops in the future?! User Image - Blocked by "Display Image" Settings. Click to show.
i'd understand if we got things on the regular and this was to spice things up, but honestly it feels like a kick to the face rn


I'm sorry for how you felt about the recent released. Back in October we released an update with new stage and kins and those are all free. Though after that we do need to release some premium content to justify for the development cost as we do wish to keep the art team employed. It's difficult to juggle between providing only free content, and keeping a staff team running.

What's next? As in, do you plan to focus more on making new Kin and Areas, update drops and existing areas, or add more to overall gameplay? Or is it lower on the priority totem pole?


We do have a lot of updates for other parts of the site and mobile app before we can get back to LK, but adding new kins and drops are definitely going to happen as small updates in between.

Lake Kindred freezes up when I go to My Kin. Other users have been having this problem too.


Please let me know more about the issue. Did the screen freeze up on the main screen when you cilck on "My Kin" or does it freeze up on the My Kin screen? Which browser were you using? I couldn't replicate your issue so we'll need to find out more about the browser and OS you're using.

creme creme 80% accuracy please?
This isn't my area of expertise, but it looks like Creme Creme has extremely high starting HP, so I'm guessing the lower accuracy is meant to balance that out. We won't be making any changes.

Will games (Lake Kindred and zOMG) ever be calibrated to reward players with rewards that actually help them on Gaia? The rewards are so low, it's hardly worth the time.

Thank you for all your hard work!


We'll bump up reward after I make some monitoring on gold generation on Gaia.

platinum / cap

i know plat has a couple soft caps - posting, profile comments, and i believe polls
which is fine, i think having a soft cap is good!

however, i think each game should have its own soft cap as well.
because if youre globally capped, there is literally NO reason to play ANY game.
especially on platinum.

LK on platinum is useless, everyone has to switch back to gold to earn anything
and the flash games i doubt have been updated in like a decade to fit anything

i think while the global cap is otherwise fine
each game should have its own soft cap, especially when you remake the games
because itll actually be an incentive to play because you can earn
and because itll have a soft cap like posting in forums, you can still earn without going super crazy with it.

otherwise when you re-create the games or re-launch them, theyll have short winded hype cuz people cant bloody earn anything.
if we are putting our time and effort into a game, we should get something.
so please, let gaming have their own soft cap on plat.
instead of falling under global.
including LK


Thank you for the suggestion. I'll look into how we can split the daily cap so that rewards from games are still meaningful even after platinum is earned from posting.

Will we be getting a new kin this year to celebrate the Year of the Rat?

Not necessarily as a freebie (although, hey, I wouldn't argue), but as an item sold directly in La Victoire. It's just that we've had new kin for previous Zodiacs (Shi Hou, Gege the Rooster, Creme Creme, and Porksperity) and it'd be fun to see that continue. emotion_bigheart

I do understand that kin are a ton of work to make/code so I 100% understand if not. We did just get the adorable Decembun, after all. But... I thought I'd ask anyway. Because I'm a shameless LK nerd.


Maybe as one of this year's events. Let's see what ideas we come up with later in the year.

Not really a question, just a friendly reminder about temporarily re-enabling the Valentine's kin drops in Kindred Wilds and Zen Temple (Lovebug, Sweet Lovebug, Valentine's Stagony)! emotion_bigheart

Unless, you know, the plan changed and they're no longer being added this year... in which case, disregard. Or if I missed them. Which would be embarrassing but also 100% possible because I'm easily distracted.


Uh oh, sorry, we might have missed doing that this year, let me check with the team. sweatdrop
