Appearance[]
Reindeer[]
The current "Season 2" Reindeer is a wenge-colored animal covered in fur. Its head is lighter with one central highlight, having a long rounded snout ending in a lighter segment and a beady nose and big black eyes surrounded by a ring of pale brown. Its ears are black: Its insides are off-white. The Reindeer has large tan antlers growing into several points on top of its head. It has a rosy brown ruff just under its head, and two folds on its back. The Reindeer's tail is short and brushy, tipped in rosy brown.
Gold-Trimmed Reindeer[]
The Gold-Trimmed Reindeer isn't incredibly different structure-wise from the "Season 1" Reindeer, but has a stark contrast from the normal skin. Its ears are perked a little higher, the larger eyes look slightly higher, and has a more boldly marked nose. Its golden underside reaches more outwards with pale blue spiny ice separating it from the tan fur. Its horns are golden, longer, and thicker. Small icicles droop from the outer parts. Finally, the tail is golden.
Musk Deer[]
The current "Season 2" Musk Deer is slightly paler than the Reindeer. The most notable difference is the lack of antlers, giving its ears more room to point upwards. The insides of them are tan as opposed to white. Its snout has lighter lips and two curving fangs in front. The Musk Deer has a paler underside and dark tips on its tail.
Sunburn Reindeer[]
The Sunburn Reindeer, based off the "Season 1" Reindeer, is light pink with more saturated sunburnt spots on its back. Its horns are peach in color. White pearl bracelets with small blue and white hanging stars can be seen entangled in the horns. It has a small yellow and cyan flower-shaped barrette on its right antler and two rainbow colored ribbons drooping from the clip. At the center of the barrette is a golden pearl. The Sunburn Reindeer's ears are more upturned, hot pink inside. Its eyes have dark blue highlights, and its snout is freckled. Its nose is pink with a small tan patch right before it. The Animal has a slightly pinker patch of fur on its forehead.
Spideer[]
The Spideer has a similar antler shape compared to Rudolph, but it has another extension pointing downwards. Its eyes are similar to those of a Giant Spider- it has two large eyes that have two smaller ones above them. The Spideer is Expresso-brown in color and has shaggy fur, similarly to a Fox. Its snout is also less defined and more shaggy overall.
Sleigh Deer[]
Unplayable, spawned only by Santa with his sleigh. The sleigh deer is more orange in color with tan horns that are sharper at the points. The eyes are closer together and slightly smaller and its ears have a curve to them. Its snout is thinner, striped with red. Around its neck is a red collar with several indented yellow bells. The deer wears an ochre harness and has a slim white underside. Its tail is white-tipped.
Rudolph[]
Unplayable, spawned only by Santa with his sleigh. Spawns once per sleigh. Rudolph is a rich brown color with smaller eyes like the sleigh deer. His ears are very dark, and his inner ear is beige. The end of his long snout is tan with a dark brown nose. He has a small highlight leading up to his nose. He has a tan ruff behind his head. His tawny antlers reach further outwards tangled a green cord tipped with colorful Christmas lights. Rudolph has a dark brown tack lined with small yellow circles. The tack has a red ornate banner on his back. Rudolph's tail is longer than any other other skin's and has a tan border at the outer edge.
Season 1 Reindeer[]
The "Season 1" Reindeer looks like a brown circle, with a tan-ish head. It has fur details on the outside of its body, and it has magnificent horns coming from off of its head. It has two ears poking out from underneath the horns, and a rather fluffy tail. It also has two crescents resembling bones, and a skinny oval on its back between the horns. In general, the "Season 1" Reindeer is paler and less fluffy than the current "Season 2" Reindeer.
Season 1 Musk Deer[]
The Musk Deer has the same physical structure as the "Season 1" Reindeer, except its fur is a dark brown, nearly black. Its underbelly is a lighter gray. It also has two short, white fangs on its mouth, and unlike the regular reindeer no antlers on its head.
Strategy[]
Try to dig up food to help level yourself up. The best place to dig food is at the middle of ice, as you can easily stop digging and run away if there is any danger nearby. Also eat cloudberries, raspberries, or brown mushrooms. Shoot water at the red mushrooms, too. However, the best strategy to levelling up is to find a Lake, and eat Ducklings, lilypads or/and Golden eggs, which are the best resources you can use to level up. Just be careful of other animals at the lake, as they might chase you away to keep the lake to themselves. Also, Ducklings can be hard to chase, but are worth it so pursue them if they run away.
Make sure to use your traction on ice to your advantage as most of your prey (and some predators) struggle to move and turn on ice quickly, making it easy to catch unsuspecting critters, namely Arctic Hares and Lemmings, but Seals and Penguins also have no grip. However, the latter to can slide on ice, but cannot turn well so there is a chance you can easily catch them.
If you're a Musk Deer, also take advantage of your skill to climb hills and rocks. Avoid low tier predators such as the Muskox and Arctic Fox, and climb rocks to evade the Sabertooth Tiger and Polar Bear. However, be aware that Markhors and Walruses can climb rocks too. Flee from Walruses on ice patches, and constantly change direction as Walruses are weaker in that area. Markhors will usually not target you due to low XP bonus, but there is still a chance that they will.
If you want to farm for food, go outside of the Arctic and dig food in a mud patch. You will dig up loads of lilypads and mushrooms, which you can eat in peace. Digging in lakes is also definitely a valid strategy option, but Ducks may eat your food, so go to the least populated lake if possible.
