January 2014 refers to the campaign that ran on Habbo throughout January of 2014. Although it was not a larger or specifically themed campaign like many others, it focussed on reflecting on the hotel highlights of 2013 - as shown in the re-release of popular 2013 bundles.
This month also saw the discontinuation of the Habbo Game Centre[1] and the return of the classic furniture line Lodge to the catalogue. As well as this, this campaign saw many improvements to Builders Club, including the introduction of Building Blocks.

Pets
During this campaign, the Gnome was first released as a pet. Once purchased, users would receive a wooden crate that had to then be cracked to get the gnome out. Nine different breeds of varying levels of rarity were available, however users would not know which breed their gnome was until the box had been opened.
Room Bundles
Three new room bundles were released during this campaign.
