You are viewing an older version of this page, which may differ significantly from the current version.

Ever wanted to create a nice scenery for your lion to sit in? A cave? A forest, perhaps? A colourful scene? Or maybe just an aesthetic background? Well, fear not! There are lots of backgrounds to choose from on Lioden!

You can obtain different backgrounds for your lions in several ways. The most common way is by purchasing them from their respective shops, but you can also win them via minigames. This page covers previews for all available backgrounds on Lioden.

This page will be updated with new backgrounds at the end of each month.

Default Backgrounds  

These backgrounds are displayed by default on every lion that does not have a background currently equipped to them. They switch simultaneously between themselves, based on the day and night cycles on Lioden.

Default (Day)

Default (Night)

Craftable Backgrounds  

These backgrounds can be crafted via the Monkey Business's Decor Crafting page, or in their respective event crafting areas.

Event-Specific  

You can craft these during their respective events. See our Gem Guide for further information!
