Here is a reply from an email a reporter from the fansite Habbid received after spamming half a dozen staff inbox's in reference to the closure of the game center. Thought it would be interesting to post it here, and see what you all think - especially as this fansite has been actively discussing the 4/4 event.
1 month ago, more or less, Sulake announced that Game Center would have an end on March 31 The reason for the closure:. was not explained by them, as they preferred to leave everything behind the scenes. Speculations were the most diverse and users who always played the Game Center, wanted to understand why Sulake was taking such an attitude that could be beneficial or not to Habbo.
After weeks of trying to contact the staff of Sulake, managed to get a definitive answer . Apart from the answer given by a member of staff of Sulake, he informed us that on 04/04 a novelty will improve all communities in Habbo Hotel and that certainly will completely change the direction of Habbo Hotel.
"Good morning friends Habbid.
It's time to open up to all of you and we'll tell the true story behind the closing of Game Center on Habbo Hotel. When we decided to bring back the Snowstorm, we thought it would be popular until the present day, something that would be addictive, and that users would then stick to the game.. but we fooled ourselves. With that idea, we started to launch new games and they were always popular for days and ended up being pushed aside by the users, and these users asked a lot to bring games to Habbo. Game Center should have already left Habbo long ago, but hopefully the dust of other problems that thereby lowering our selves announce the closing of another game entertainment tool. We were taking damage with it open, as it did not answer our expectations and the profit obtained through it was minimal, which did not benefit us nor the companies who spent months creating them.
Regarding the 04/04 event that is the talk in every Habbo community, we can not give anymore information about it. The only thing we can say is that it will be something that will change the course of history of Habbo Hotel and undoubtedly, will attract many new users to the game and increase by 300% the number of online gamers in all communities. We believe that in any online game, there is something to the size of what we bring to Habbo. Wait and see this news!
And as a way to honor the Game Center, memorial furniture will arrive in the upcoming days. It will be a trophy to remind ourselves how important was this tool for the game. We would not reveal it, but as you were very interested in knowing about Game Center, we decided to send the image of the furni to come to realize that everyone in the coming days.
Thanks for contacting. We hope we have answered all questions.
