In a recent article, we showed you the Webkinz Guide, which was once given out as a gift to new players coming to the site. Since that article, we discovered the ORIGINAL COVER for the Webkinz Guide, back when the site was launched in April of 2005.
As you can see, the art style in Webkinz World has changed over the years. We are always looking to improve the look and feel of the site to make it feel like a cool and contemporary place to play!
Why aren’t they around today?
I’ve been playing webkinz since 2005 but I lost my first account :( anyway these are so nostalgic! I even remember the old tour and menu bar and welcome room haha!
Can you do one about the original design and prizes for the Wheel of Wow? I’d love to see that!
I wish you could read the guides on here. Especially the old 2005 one. I was a member in 2011 and I got a webkinz guide. Back then, I was in preschool (January-June) and then I started kindergarten. I was born December 15, 2005 so I definitely couldn’t play then. And I only had a twin brother, (who was born 15 mins. after me) so I didn’t have any siblings. Back when I was in preschool, I started playing in April. I go on that player occasionally, and when I go on there are a lot of old chocolate eggs from 2011. When I first went back on that player back in 2013, I was wondering a lot of things like “Will my pet be sick?” And to my surprise, in health Stephanie my snowman was in 98% health! And 99% in hunger and 100% in happiness. When I made my account back in 2011, I got a Webkinz Guide. (The new kind) But when I decided to go back onto webkinz in 2013, I made a bunch of new accounts. Including lilly84wk, molly84wk, Buddy13Pet, and daisykinzville. I really only use the daisykinzville account, it has 15 pets and rare items and loads of psi. And KC plus. I really wish you could read through the 2005 webkinz guide. I Love Webkinz!
wow…memories!
i love webkinz<3
