Today we are proud to announce the launch of a new Webkinz! It’s a whole new world to play alongside the rebranded Webkinz Classic! This new version was built from the ground up to work the same on all platforms with the latest technologies. Now you’ll have two great ways to plays! Just login with your existing Webkinz user name and password and we’ll get you all set up! Get all of the details here: https://webkinznewz.ganzworld.com/join-the-family/
Google Play, iOS and Windows Store versions available now!
Did “Webkinz Next” (that is what the new app calls itself on my device) just go down for maintenance or something? I was playing Jumbleberry Blast and got kicked off. The login page doesn’t work and instead produces a message about maintenance. I hope my kinzcash and score were still recorded as I got over 50 kinzcash and had just beaten Sparky’s daily score challenge.
I was surprised to see it down for maintenance already. I hope your kinzcash was recorded!
I gave the new game three tries. Not a fan of this “new” version of Webkinz. There are so many things about it that I don’t like. The over all look. The fact that you can only play a game in the arcade so many times before you have to use “diamonds”, or whatever. The fact that everything is just too visually flat, cartoon like, and way too childish. I know there are many Webkinz Players that are loving it, and I’m happy for them. But, I will stick with the Classic Webkinz. I’m just hoping and praying that Ganz/Team Webkinz, won’t slowly begin to phase Classic Webkinz out. I just hope, and pray, that they will FIX what isn’t working in Classic Webkinz soon. We’ve been waiting for things to be fixed for a long long time. I think we Classic Webkinz Players deserve better than this. Just my opinion, so please don’t be offended.
I see there are two challenges that give us gems (one for 10 and one for 30). Are there anymore challenges that award gems?
You’ll have to keep playing to find out :) You can also win Diamonds from logging in regularly.
I’m looking forward to trying this game out when the Mac version is released! I tried to install the app on my iPad, but discovered that my iPad is too old to run it.
i played the new webkinz for a few hours so far and I am not a fan. I’ll take my original webkinz that i have invested over 14 years of time and money in.
Sally Webkinz, is there a reason you can only play on each arcade game three times? Is that because this is essentially a free account? If you buy a new virtual pet do you get unlimited chances at the games?
If you purchase a pet, you will receive 6 plays in the Arcade. You can unlock more plays by turning in the tickets you earn for playing for game tokens, then you can use game tokens to play more.
Is there a chart posted somewhere that tells you what different membership levels are available, and what they include (like the chart for free, full, and deluxe comparison on Classic Webkinz)?
Not yet. More information will be coming
I searched Google Play, and only Webkinz Classic was there, plus a few individually sold minigames.
I think I could eventually get used to most of this, but is that Sophie on the right? I don’t think I like looking at her new design very much…at least now I know she’s probably a dog. That’s been a mystery for the past year.
That’s Ms. Biscuits :) Sophie is not a dog. Sophie is a chipmunk
Wait–so, we can play both Webkinz games with the same username and password? Like web version and mobile?
Yes, for your convenience, you can use your existing username. However, the games are not otherwise linked — they are completely separate
I just got a new phone today, but it Google Play Store says that it’s not compatible with my device. :(
