The countdown has started.

Hello Olokianer,

How are things going? You’ve probably seen it already: the countdown on the website is no longer showing days, but just hours until the Oloko Open Beta! The Open Beta is just around the corner! I’ve already been exploring Oloko with some members of the Oloko team and got a sneak peek at everything; I even took the opportunity to buy some new clothes so I’d look my best for the release—see for yourselves:



Oh, Marla... You’re already amazing just the way you are! A big hello from me, too. The closed beta recently wrapped up successfully. Now, the Oloko team is working flat out to get everything ready for the open beta—making sure nothing goes wrong on August 16th! The team has received quite a few questions across various platforms over the last few days, and Nico wants to answer them for you. Let’s get started!

So, feeling fresh? Then let's get started::
When exactly does the open beta start?

The open beta is scheduled for August 16 at 8 p.m. (20:00) German time.

Will all the quests, plants, and products from the original Oloko be available?
Yes, all quests and their plants & products will be available in the game in their original versions on the day of release.

Will there be new features?

The team is focused on using modern technology to restore Oloko to its former state, while also introducing numerous improvements to existing features. The Oloko Shop and the trading system, for example, got fresh designs and offer new features. Completely new features are also planned for the post-launch period—we look forward to sharing more details with you soon.

Will there be special events, or—like in the original Oloko—only the main quests?

There will be great events on Oloko where you can earn cool rewards. A major event is planned for shortly after the beta launch, so keep your eyes peeled! ;)

Are there any new rooms or characters?

A new room was completed a few months ago and is scheduled for release later this year. A brand-new character will arrive in Oloko shortly after the open beta launches. Keep your eyes peeled and follow our blog so you don't miss a thing.

Is the waiting time in Oloko still as long as in the original?

80% of the waiting times have been carried over from the original version, though some items now process faster. Also, keep in mind that you can trade items with other players at any time to progress more quickly.

Are there group competitions again, and who feeds Oloko the most?

Yes, of course! Starting on launch day, you can do your best to feed Oloko and win the week with your group. However, the group competition for the first week will be decided via a Discord vote, since you are all just getting started and cannot yet craft the necessary items.

What about memberships?
You can purchase a paid Oloko Patreon membership to buy exclusive clothing and furniture or to get a large garden where you can craft even more items. However, unlike the original version of Oloko, most things are free! Purchasing a membership supports the continued development of Oloko and helps cover its costs.

Alright, Nico, that’s enough answers for now—after all, everyone in Oloko should still get to experience a surprise or two for themselves. But if you definitely don’t want to miss a thing, be sure to check the Oloko blog regularly, that’s where we’ll let you know whenever something new happens in Oloko, who wins the group challenge, and, of course, who has fed Oloko the most.


However, if you’d like even more insights and want to become part of a great community, the team would certainly be happy if you joined the Oloko Discord server. Click here to join.

Hehe... A great snapshot just came in showing the team exploring Sunnyfarm:


Whoa! That’s enough for now—after all, the Olokians are already waiting to go exploring themselves. With that in mind, don’t forget to visit our Discord, as well as our Oloko X (Twitter) account and the blog, so you don’t miss a thing.
We'll see each other on August 16th at 8 p.m. German time.

The end of the closed beta

Hello Olokians

How are you today? I'm sure you'll be doing great by the next message! Nico, tell us about it.

Of course! The closed beta test version of the brand new, flash-free Oloko version is finally coming to an end!

The Oloko team has now confirmed to us that Oloko has a completeness of approximately 80-90%, and missing features are added daily.

Since our last post, for example, group competitions have been added, as well as over 100 new items.

Furthermore, there is now a closed beta test party at Sugarpeak!

All closed beta testers can collect 3 exclusive items there. These cannot be traded with other players, nor will they ever be available again.



So if you want to get some limited-edition items, I recommend you participate in the Closed Beta and help the Oloko team with testing.

But you don't have much time left! The beta is almost over! Bill will tell you more!

Hello! You heard right. The closed beta is almost over. To be precise, it will end 7 days before the open beta.
Now you're probably wondering when the open beta will finally begin, right?
Then I don't want to keep you waiting any longer, so I'll tell you the PLANNED release date of Oloko:



Great job, Bill! It's finally out! Soon you'll all be able to try out Oloko. Please note, however, that as Bill already mentioned, this is the planned release date and the Oloko open beta can be postponed at any time..
However, if you don't want to wait any longer, feel free to join the other Oloko testers and participate in the Closed Beta and receive exclusive tester rewards.

If you don't want to test, you can simply join our Discord server. Over 200 Oloko fans are eagerly awaiting the release of Oloko!


Exactly! Come and become part of a large community! If you want to join, click here.

However, if you would like to participate in the closed beta to play Oloko earlier and receive exclusive rewards, these are the current requirements:

-> Have an active Panfu.com account that has reached at least level 10.

-> Have an active Discord account linked to the Panfu.com Discord. (You also get the access data & rules via the Discord)
-> Own and link a Panfu Patreon membership level 2 (Panfu Explorer) or higher.

The closed beta ends approximately 7 days before the open beta begins. From the start of the open beta, playing Oloko will be free and without access restrictions. However, a selection of game features will require a paid Oloko Patreon membership. More details will be available later.

We've also set up a countdown for you on the homepage. So get ready for Oloko!


We look forward to seeing you and will of course keep everyone else up to date with important news on the X (Twitter) Account, in the Oloko blog and via the Discord server.

The new Oloko Website is here!

Hello Olokians

How are you all doing? We're doing great! Because we have some fantastic news for you! Oloko now has a new website! The design is similar but more modern! Bill, tell us what's new.

Hello from me too! The first thing you'll notice is that the homepage now offers the option to pre-register for the Oloko open beta. So, if you don't already have a Joubgames/Panfu.com account, you can create one now to be ready for the open beta!



That sounds fantastic! But that's not all. The new website is also mobile-friendly. It now adapts perfectly to your device. And there's more! There are also new features here on the blog: Nico, that's your specialty!

Yes Marla! I've already found out what's changed on our Oloko blog. Among other things:

-> You can now write comments. Simply click on the respective post and scroll down.
-> You can now browse back to older posts in the blog or use the archive on the right.
->
The calendar on the blog is now working. You can now see exactly how many days the current month has.
-> 
The VIP profile page has been completed. Learn everything about the Oloko residents there.


Exciting! Even more exciting, though, is that I can reveal to you: Development of the brand-new HTML Oloko version is progressing very well. The team still has some work to do, however, to add missing features and ensure a smooth transition to the public beta. The planned release date is practically set and will be announced very soon. So check the Oloko website regularly!

If you have any questions about Oloko, feel free to ask them in the comments or in our Discord. We'll try to answer them!

New: Oloko Discord & Development update.

Hello Olokians

We hope you are all well! Today we're reporting with exciting news. The final development phase of the Oloko Closed Beta version has begun. The team has been working hard over the past few months to bring back missing features and improve the world of Oloko. The new HTML Oloko version has made such great progress that most of the original features are available again. Some have even been improved, some even with a new design  such as the new trading window:




Exactly, and the trading system has been improved so much that for the first time in Oloko's history, you can now trade digital items (the ones you use to customize your Oloko phone). And that's not all: minigames have also returned in the latest update for the closed beta version.



Yes, yes, Marla! I think this will be my absolute favorite minigame! But dear Oloko fans: the team still has a lot to do. The final closed beta development phase has begun, but the Oloko Team still needs to add a few missing features, and they need to implement some gameplay and performance improvements. Currently, the Oloko team is sticking to its plans to release an open beta sometime this spring, if everything goes well. We'll keep you updated here on the blog, of course.

Let's hope for the best! And finally, there's one more surprise for you! Oloko.eu is now officially on Discord!



The Oloko team would be delighted if you all join the Oloko Discord server. There, you'll also receive exclusive insights into Oloko's development in the near future. To join, Please click here.

Oloko Team was also a good keyword: From now on, you'll find a team page here on the website. There you can see who helps every day to make Oloko a beautiful place. You'll find the link both at the top and at the bottom of the website menu.


If you don't want to wait any longer for Oloko, we recommend participating in the closed beta test version, for which all testers will receive exclusive rewards. To participate, you currently need to meet the following requirements:
-> Have an active Panfu.com account that has reached at least level 10.
-> Have an active Discord account linked to the Panfu.com Discord. (You also get the access data & rules via the Discord)

Information about the Development Progress.

Hello Olokians,

We hope youre all doing well. Today we have a new development update for you regarding the current closed beta testing phase. Lets take a look together at the current state of development, when an open beta might be available, and whats planned for the near future. Bill, could you explain to the Olokians whats been happening in the last few months?

Ofcourse, Marla! Over the past few months, the Oloko team has been working very hard to add missing features to the brand-new, Flash-free version of Oloko. Among other things, furniture, groups, more quests, digital items (accessories for your Oloko phone), more clothing from the original Oloko, the backyard, missing locations, and more have returned. There were also some cool events, like the big summer party in August.

Yes, that was really cool, Bill! But there are also big updates coming soon, to make a open beta possible, where Oloko will finally be free for everyone. But Nico, tell us more about the next few months.

Of course! The Oloko team has revealed that there will be a huge XXL update again for the closed beta later this year, which will bring back more missing features, gameplay and performance improvements, more clothing, more furniture, bug fixes, and of course, a Christmas Event. Plans for early 2026 include bringing back the trading and selling system, adding minigames, missing and brand-new features, and much more. The team estimates that all these updates will be released during spring 2026 and then plans to launch an open beta where all Oloko players can play without any access restrictions and hopefully experience Oloko as it once was. Only better! ;)

That sounds great! But dont forget, with Closed Beta access you can already play Oloko and follow the Closed Beta development live. These are the current requirements to participate:
-> Have an active Panfu.com account that has reached at least level 10.
-> Have an active Discord account linked to Panfu. (You can also get the access data & rules via the Discord)
-> Own and link a Panfu Patreon membership level 2 (Panfu Explorer) or higher.

We look forward to seeing you and will of course keep everyone else up to date on important news on the Oloko X (Twitter) account and in the Oloko blog.
