Update #272: What’s New!

 

Hoo-hoo Kinzville! It’s me, your mayor—Dr. Quincy Quack! I’m here again to tell you all about what’s new in Webkinz World today! Let get started, shall we?

 

 

 

 

  • There’s a NEW space suit you can collect in Alyssa’s Star Challenge! The next time you see a shooting star, click on it and you might win one of the five new pieces for the Galaxy Suit! This also means (as mentioned in an earlier Webkinz Newz article) that the Golden Solar Suit has now been retired.

 

 

  • Summer is almost over, so that means it’s time once again for our annual Super School Give-A-Way! Log in to your Webkinz account (on web or mobile) each day from August 14th to September 8th to win a sweet school-themed prize!

 

 

  • We’re also running a Super School Challenge during those same dates! Complete all of the tasks between August 14th and September 8th and you’ll win a Superintendent Statue, along with a Kinzville Academy Backpack!

 

 

  • The first item from our player-designed WShop theme addition contest has arrived! Look in the Starry Slumber theme for the NEW Starry Night Telescope!

 

 

  • The 2017 Wacky Zingoz Celebration returns August 1st to the 12th! Watch for more Wacky fun, including a chance to once again win the Wacky Zingoz 600 Trophy, along with 4 NEW clothing prizes available while playing WackyER Zingoz!

 

 

  • During the 2017 Wacky Zingoz Celebration, in addition to the Zangoz Orange Fizz, you’ll also be able to collect some NEW Wacky Lemon Fizz! Feeding this fizzy drink to your pet has a chance of awarding this year’s grand prize: a Wacky Soda Machine Fridge!

 

 

  • Our next Deluxe Day is on August 13th! If you’re a Deluxe Member, you can visit the Today’s Activities schedule for a variety of activities and for a special NEW prize: a Wacky Wind Chime!

 

 

 

 

  • If you love spinning wheels and winning, you’ll be excited to learn that we’ve once again updated the prizes on the Wheel of Wow for web and mobile, along with the Wheel of Deluxe!

 

 

  • Great news for all of our Adventure Park players! We were able to determine what was causing the issue where people would get stuck on dig tasks. It has now been fixed, so all of your adventures should run much more smoothly!

 

We’ve also fixed more features and items! To see all of the items we’ve fixed each week, you can check out our list by clicking here.

 

Well now, this sure was fun! Stay tuned to Webkinz Newz for more exciting announcements!

 

Take care, Kinzville!

    What happened to the Enchanted Saplings? I have two of them, the St. Patrick (I don’t remember what it’s called) and the Summer Sumac. They were normal yesterday, but today, they’re both missing their tops. On my St. Patrick one, both the trunk and the base are what I had chosen; but on my Summer one, the base is different and I kind of think the trunk changed as well, but I’m not completely certain about the trunk.

    I was in the Clubhouse earlier—-wow!!! Fantastic changes, Ganz! So well done! The Wacky Room is hilarious—I think I enjoyed it more than my pets! All of the interactive items in the room are amazing. And the Ohh La La Room is so pretty. I wasn’t sure Sophie Stockwell would let the pets sample the pastries, but she did!! They looked yummy, and Biscuit, my yellow lab surprised me with a pet comment I had never seen before: “Deeeelious”. That was so cute. Did you guys add new pet comments? (I did notice my pets requested to play Wacky games in the Arcade, but ‘deeelicious’ comment seemed like a new one. Thanks for keeping it fresh and fun, Ganz!

    Awesome–I’m SO glad they figured out the cause of the Adventure Park glitch–I kept getting stuck, so I stopped going…thanks for fixing that. :-)

    great update, Dr. Quack! Thanks for keeping us in the loop! Love the new Galaxy Suit, the colors are great. Really looking forward to the Super School challenge: The superintendent’s statue is great!! Such beautiful detail, and really cute. And that backpack is so adorable!

    Still getting logged out of WW in the arcade – or the arcade won’t load at all, or you have to try 6 times to get items from the clubhouse (not the fizzy drink which does eventually show up when you leave the clubhouse). Why after all these years are there still so many issues with this game, and why isn’t maintenance done more often and continually?? Considering the money thrown at Ganz this is getting beyond frustrating.

    Since you changed system several years ago none of us (my sis, bro and I) never got ANY star in the Alyssa’s forest! You have to fix it.

    This could very well be one of thee best updates of all time Dr. Quack!!! Thank you for the fun informative fixes, amazing prize pool(s) and upcoming events! Special shout out to Betty Butter Ganz for addressing and adjusting the Stadium KinzPost; soooo appreciative! Happy Wacky Fest friends!

    So many new and exciting things going on, although I have played for about an hour with Ads On and I haven’t seen a single fizz ad yet ;( Another thing is that my whole garden reset, I was getting ready to harvest it soon after a few more days when everything had grown, hopefully it was just a glitch and Ganz will fix it for us. On a good note, I’ve been decorating rooms for about an hour and got 3 fizzes, 2 Zangoz and 1 Wacky. I don’t play the Adventure Park, but I’m sure many are relieved about that patch! I also love the telescope and the Wacky trophy, I don’t have one yet! I really love the clothing items, too, as well as the new prizes on wheels. Thanks for the info, Mayor Quack!

      One more thing; I’m trying to submit 5 or 6 images to the ShareCenter for FanArt, but in Chrome, Edge, and Firefox, the Browse button doesn’t work, and in Internet Explorer, the Submit button doesn’t work. These are my only browsers… Any suggestions on how to fix this?

    • cmv6570 says:

      All of my gardens reset, too. :( I was going to pick them today. Plus some of my items are gone. My entire mayor outfit is gone and so is my kinzville family prize house. :(

    YAY YAY YAY on fixing the Adv. Park digging problem. I play there daily and at least once a week, had to email you guy to unlock me as I tried to dig for the 2nd rope. Felt bad bothering you and know you probably had lots of emails to fix others too. Glad it is fixed. Great job, Ganz. YAY YAY YAY
