Thank you to everyone who participated in this year's Cookie Contest! All of the entries looked so delicious we want to eat our monitors. We are excited that this years competition was judged by Orteil and Opti, the creators of the genre-defining idle game, Cookie Clicker! Here is basically how it went down...
Orteil: on a scale from Mr. Rogers to American Idol, how harsh and merciless should we be Artix: Uh... Orteil: no mercy, got it Artix: O_O
When you think about it, it is pretty meta to have the creators of a cookie game judge a real life cookie contest based on another series of games. Here we go!

This contest is OPEN to any player of every Artix Entertainment game, but the Contest Prizes will only be awarded insideAdventureQuest Worlds.

Tired after a plunderin’ day? Drop anchor on ye’ TreehouseShip, Matey! All the amenities of a true Pirate’s Life at ye’ hooks: white sand at ye’ peg-leg, peaceful quarters, convenient hangin’ point on your Crow’s Nest an’ 100 miles to Tortulgar Inn only! Yarrrr!
House of Vita

The house of the Stars, this structure is the remainder of an ancient civilization, Vita. Living knowledge of the cosmos is stored within its crystal shards. The entire structure is powered by the Stars gem at the top.

1st Place Winners
These players did an AMAZING job designing their houses! We wish we could transform ALL of these into in-game houses, but we’re just a small team and only have so many hands (we’re looking to employ an artistic octopus). These 1st Place Winners will receive 1,000 AdventureCoins in AQWorlds =D
2nd Place Winners
Glorious! Stupendous! Insert another adjective here! The following entries made it into our 2nd Place Winners, and for that, will each receive 500 AdventureCoins.

Miguel Mendes is the winner of the 1st AQ3D monster design contests with his entry, the Acevorah. The team modeled and animated his monsterous creation. Give it a little bit to load, then use keys 0 through 8 to trigger animations. To change the camera angle, click and drag. Below is the original monster entry.
QUESTION:
Does the file load? Is it animating in your browser? Let us know if it works and what you think! Comment below. 15% chance I will see your Twitter post... but 100% I will see if you post here.
Yergenhere! There were well over 450 submissions to Legend of LORE’s first ever contest. Each and every submission was awesome in its own right. The monsters ranged from cute, silly, gross, to downright frightening. Oddly enough I didn’t see any monsters that shot lightning out of their butts. Anyhoo - The battle was tough, so tough in fact that we extended the deadline to let a few more monsters get in. In the end, however, a winner (or shall I say - winners) has emerged. What better way to celebrate a 10 year anniversary, than with winners! Here is how it all breaks down:
Gargantuan Grand Prize Winner!
The winner’s monster will be “Thytonized,” 3D modeled by Xero, painted and animated by the 3D team and will be put in one of the first playable maps in Legend of LORE. The winner will get a print of the monster, signed by the entire Legend of LORE team, and 4000 Artix Points.
And the winner is...... Acevorah: by Vypie
Rightful Runner Up
The runner up will get a limited edition black variant Artix or Sepulchure figure, or a signed poster of your choice. (You may only choose one of the previous items.) And 4000 Artix Points.
And the runner up is...... Cappy the Guardian in a Box: by Jaikon
