Hey there arcade enthusiasts! The Hungry Hog Arcade Challenge starts TODAY—but don’t leave it to last minute… You’ll only have until Sunday, January 26th (midnight, Eastern Standard Time), to complete it!
Here’s how to play. Starting TODAY, January 20th, look for the Hungry Hog Arcade Challenge icon in your pet’s room. It will be displayed along the left side of the room:
Click on the icon to review your tasks. There are 3 tasks you’ll need to complete by midnight January 26th (EST) to earn all of the prizes:
- Earn 250 KinzCash playing Hungry Hog in the Arcade
- Make 20 wishes playing Wishing Well 2 in the Arcade
- Feed your pet 10 Burgers from the WShop
Help Pinky the pig eat all the junk food on the screen to pass a level. Eating junk food slows them down, but eating veggies restores their speed. Watch out for the bees! If one stings Pinky, you lose a try. Collecting a Bee Helmet gives Pinky the ability to knock out the bees.
Complete all of the tasks before time runs out and you’ll collect some delicious treats, like a Busy City Soda and a Busy City Ice Cream Cone, both of which can be stored away until snack time inside the NEW Hungry Hog Fridge!
Do YOU have any game play tips? Let us know in the comments below!
The Wishing Well is not on my activities today. It vanished and I need to make my 5 wishes to win the prizes for the challenge. Is anyone else having this problem??
You can always find Wishing Well 2 in the Arcade
I’m not great at this game; I usually only score about 15KC in a game, lol. Guess I’ll be playing quite a few games…I seem to do better when I don’t rush. For some reason I feel like I have to go fast in games like this, but I think it’s better to slow down a bit. You can wait near a power helmet and ambush the bees, and sometimes just waiting it out is better than rushing straight into a bee. I think the game awards more points as you move up in levels, kind of like Wackier Zingoz….I’ll let you know if I get past level 4, lol. Good luck, everyone–don’t give up. You can do it!
I just hate when they corner me!!!!
Thank you for the pep talk, @ImaPepper! This game stresses me out! And it is giving me an aversion to veggies, which improve the little piggy’s health, but make you lose points. What kind of a message are we trying to send here people. ;-)
Did they revamp the game? I seem to recall it being a bit different (and for me that the arrow keys reacted a bit sooner) It could be that I’m getting old and/or the upgrades that occur with the computer operating systems!
You may be thinking of Hungry Hog2: Pinky’s Big Adventure. They are alike, just different graphics & music & it’s cuter (I think).
This one is the more plain of the two.
So far so good! I’ve got very little time to play this month, so I’ve been lucky so far that these challenges are on games I really like and am fairly good at. I love Scrambled, and I enjoy and do well on both the Hungry Hog games. I’m not a big fan of Link’d, so I’m hoping it doesn’t require too much.
I’m excited for this challenge, but have to say, I really don’t like the new look and format of the Hungry Hog game. It used to be so cute, and the music was great! Now it’s too bright, and looks like there are even fewer pixels than the old version in the graphics. Some changes are good; this change, imo, is not. :(
Are you thinking of the Pinky game? I know I was at first because as soon as I saw the posting for the game I had the music from Pinky in my head. This version doesn’t have the music and has fewer graphics. It’s still fun though.
I like the old version better. This one is dull in comparison.
I think that this IS the older version. The newer (and I feel improved) version is called “Pinky’s Big Adventure”. Think “Pac-Man” meets junk food and bees. LOL!
Hey guys, I messed up with the Scrambled challenge. I played it some on each of my three accounts, enough to earn the reward, but didn’t earn 200 KC on any one account. I got a little tired of playing so much Scrambled and had some busy days on the 18th and 19th where I could barely play Webkinz at all. What I’m saying is, even though I worked for a while on the Scrambled challenge I did not earn the cash register on any of my three accounts. I know this is a bit of a long shot, but would anyone be willing to trade me, or befriend me and send one? My main account is RGT500. If you want to trade, I have a lot of items from events Sept 2019 – present, eg. multiples of the Candy Cane Collection, so I’d be willing to help you out. Thanks guys, if it doesn’t work for you I understand.
Has anyone responded, RGT500? I’m willing to send you mine if you are still looking for one. Username Adatins
Cloud Sheep/Adatins, you are generous and wonderful! Is there any item I can help you with??
I guess this game is a little better than scrambled, which I HATE. it’s just all the fast clicking needed, and stressful to keep people in their seats, especially bc i broke my arm. I just play bc I love the new prizes and it’s boring sitting around when I cn chat with my friends :}
just started my hungry hog challenge.
oh my gosh I loathe this game,, I am so lousy at it The most I have gotten at one time is 11 LOL Most of the time I get 3 , gonna take awhile , anyone have any tips on this game sure could use some …. hugs !!!
The only thing I can say is to try to get the power up and knock out those bees! Extra 100 points each time you do!
I DID IT YAYYYYYYYYYY The most I got was 12 but I kept playing yesterday and today and finally reached the 250 needed for the fridge… I am so happy!!! Don’t give up you all just take patience and practice…
Oh, I’m so happy for you! Still working on mine.
Yay! You are an inspiration of perseverance and patience, @mamasbaby07!
I also am really bad at this game. I Have made 15 once. I will admit I talked my Granddaughter in to playing it. It was her game years ago and she asked me to not let her pets die. So now she has babies who will take over in a few years. Thats right, third generations taking over Webkinz accounts. My other Granddaughters children are starting to play on her account now.
That is awesome.. I have great grandchildren playing on mine.. I got the account for grandchildren and they grew up and now my greats are getting interested but the oldest is 9 so I play to keep things going for the rest of them Besides its great to keep and aging brain focused…. and nimble fingers working…
So awesome! This is my new long-term goal! I want to still be playing Webkinz someday when I have grandkids and they get old enough to play with me! Okay, Michael, Mandy, Sally, and Steve, I hope that you are all in this for the long haul! LOL!
