One of the complaints about Yoville is that it is a silent world. Well, not quite. The Yoville landscape beyond one’s apartment has background music; the factory has vaguely industrial sounds (of the rather cute sort). There is also expensive merchandise one can buy that emit sound.

Last night, I saw a notice for “Loudest Party Ever OMG.” I checked it out.

The guy in the purple asking us to rate the place (it’s a Yoville popularity thing) is the owner. Notice that his apartment living room has:

• five tyrannosaurus skulls (one obscured by people entering the apartment)
• two cannons on the bottom of the screen shot
• a rare king duck on the coffee table

These all make sounds when you click on them: the cannons boom (you can see the smoke); the skulls growl; and the rare king duck squeaks.

All that’s missing is the harp.

Note: the fish are called “Cheech” and “Chong.”

With people nonstop poking the squeaking, growling, booming things, it was quite cacophonous. And brilliant. This is the first Yoville party that really felt like a party. Of sorts.

(Some people wanted the duck to die. Personally, I kinda want to save up for one.)

Then suddenly, the owner shouted that the cops came:

Amid the noise, only one person heard:

The pigs!
