NEW Matchrace Banner

Hey guys!

Yes, sadly I was pretty busy, so I have quite alot of catching up to do! Let's start with the MATCHRACE power!

Do you remember when the Doodlerace power it was so popular that 42 wanted to advertise it's success with a banner? Well, the same thing applies with Matchrace!

This banner appears on almost ANY page from the official xat website!

What do you think of this banner? I think it looks so awesome that I may end up putting it on the blog in the upcoming days! Leave a comment and let me know what YOU think!

Update: Matchrace comes with a pawn for a limited time only. It looks like this!

 

Note: It's confirmed that there are a total of x2500 Matchrace powers in TOTAL. No more have been released since our last post as the demand was so low and there's no point in it returning.

However, we are confident that it will be UNLIMITED soon.

IMPORTANT: Burningheart Power: BURNINGHEART is now LIMITED as it has not been released in the stores for the last few days now! There should be less than 4000 in total.

x1000 MATCHRACE Powers at Stores NOW! (Constant Updates)

Hey guys!

At **1-1.30pm GMT** 42 decided to release some more MATCHRACE 'test powers' into the stores!

 

1000 released costing 400 xats

Sadly, I assume the release is going to be a long one. This is because it has NO demand through trading as you don't need the power to play it and all the popular chats are doing this game.

Last night, the price on Trade was only 400 - 430 xats when there were only 500 in total. It has been over an hour and not even half have been bought. Users are currently selling for 380 - 390 xats so if you're trying to make some profit then I recommend that you DON'T buy through store!

   
We will be sure to keep you up to date and post any important information!

Did you buy yourself a MATCHRACE power? Have you played the game yet? If so, what were your thoughts on it?

Welcome 'MATCHRACE'... Also known as Power 192!

Hey guys!


Last night, 42 had announced on @twitter that the next power, (power 192) was going to be known as Matchrace.

So, I went on xat_test at **3.30pm GMT** today to find out what the power was. Here was 42 who was on the chat at the time...

And here was 42 with the power!

The bigger version of the smiley is shown below: (with credit to xatworld.com for their Smiley Generator)

 










Yep, you guessed it, it looks very similar to the DOODLERACE power we witnessed a couple of weeks ago... that's because it's going to be a Game power .

This is the official Guide to the MATCHRACE power, one which will be released in a few hours time. We may miss out certain information, but we are still uncovering. Be sure to get a sneak peek through our one and only xat blog!

So, where do I start? This game is pretty much just like the Matchban power that was released in August 2011 , except you have to try and race other users!


Just like with DOODLERACE, to enter the game just click 'Games' on the APPs (left side) and then click 'MATCHRACE'.

Once you have done that, it will have a 3 second countdown until the game starts. Make sure you're prepared!

You will have a certain level to the game as well as a certain target. 

Below is a level 2 game where I need to try and reach 120 meters. To reach the goal you need to try and get smileys in a row, just like with the Matchban power. You have a time limit, which depends on the user who's hosting, and you also get to see how much you've done!

 

Sadly, you can not see what the other users are doing.

The results will be announced just like with Doodlerace.
 

And there you go! 42 was also seen trying to test the bot by trying out all the different types of commands.

So, that's all we managed to uncover! If there are any sorts of information that we missed out, then please leave a comment below this post and let me know. I will credit you.

What do you think of this power? It's obviously going to be a game power just like Doodlerace, but I don't think it'll be as popular as Doodlerace, and it will also be UNLIMITED as well as a Group Power!
