Chat While Playing Your Favorite Games

[Mayhem]

One of the most-requested features has arrived on the new Pogo – Chat! Join your friends or make new ones as you cheer each other on, coordinate games and swap friendly conversation.





Chat is available in all HTML5-powered games on the new Pogo. You can access it from the bottom of the game menu on the right side of the screen. In fact, you might have already noticed Joyce stopping by to introduce you to Chat. If not, you'll see her the next time you load a game.

To check it out right now, just jump into a game!

Chat is only available to players with Pogo or Club Pogo accounts. Register for free or join Club Pogo to start chatting while you play!  Please note Chat will be available exclusively to Club Pogo Members only for a short period of time. After this, all players with a Pogo or Club Pogo account will have access.

Here's what you can expect in the new Chat:

Other players can see your Pogo Avatar. As always, you can adjust it by visiting your My Profile page. Choose between many Pogo characters, your Mini, or even your favorite Badges.



When you join chat, you're automatically placed in one of several available rooms. If you have any friends playing, you will automatically be placed in the same room as them when you join. You can easily hop between the different rooms by clicking on the room name at the top.



- Connect with old friends and make new ones. Clicking on another player's avatar will bring up additional information, along with Add Friend, Report and Block options.
- Add a little extra flair to your messages with emojis.
- Club Pogo members get access to five exclusive rooms in every game.
- Your chat comments are visible to everyone in the same game room. Private Chat is in the works and will be available later.
- Please note: Chat is currently only available on desktops and laptops. We'll be introducing support for other devices in future updates.

The Chat feature on Pogo Classic will remain available, though you will not be able to see or interact with players using the new Chat feature.

More features and improvements are on the way to Pogo, so keep your eyes peeled. Be sure to leave any feedback in the Forums - we're always listening!

See you in Chat!

Thank you for the information.

Thank you.

You're welcome!

I'd love to see what they plan to do for chat with mobile games. I'm guessing it'll be an icon that you click for the chat box to pop up / down.

It looks like Private Chat was added yesterday. I never noticed it until now.

Let the stalking begin!
