In the summer of 2010 we launched the Mazin’ Hamsters line of plush and section within Webkinz World. Since then, players have enjoyed building and exploring mazes, participating in daily activities and winning prizes. Mazin’ Hamsters can also be dressed, fed and played with like any other Webkinz pet.
Recently more and more players have been unable to access Mazin’ Hamsters. The Mazin’ Hamster section requires the use of the Unity Web Player. Unfortunately this plug-in is no longer supported by browsers such as Chrome, Firefox and Safari, blocking access. As a result we regret to inform you that we will be closing the Mazin’ Hamsters section of Webkinz World on September 9th, 2015.
On August 19th, we will remove the Mazin’ Hamsters button from the Things to Do menu, but players will still be able to access the section through the building on the Map of Kinzville. On September 9th, it will be closed for good and will no longer be accessible.
Mazin’ Hamster owners will continue to be able to play with their hamsters in their pet’s room and clubhouse.
If you have points to spend in Mazin’ Hamsters, we recommend that you get all of your prizes before the section closes, as you will not have access to those points after it is closed.
Finally, if you haven’t done so already, any Mazin’ Hamster code can be registered in Amazing World, whether or not it was used in Webkinz World.
We hope that you have enjoyed playing Mazin’ Hamsters and continue to care for your cute little hamsters in Webkinz World!
***UPDATE 09/09/2015***
Mazin’ Hamsters has now been removed from Webkinz World. Remember that entering a MAZIN’ Hamster Feature Code at the Code Shop will still add the hamster to your Webkinz World account. You can play with hamsters in your pet’s room just like any other Webkinz pet! You can also play with your hamster in Amazing World, a 3D game from the creators of Webkinz!

Very sad…and now am unable to access at all as unsupported games won’t load :( How can I even use the Mazin Moolah I have earned before closing?
I only have two hamsters and have not been able to use them for a while now! I did get to play it for a while about a year ago and it was really fun. sad to see it go even thou I can’t play it anymore.
Another sad news, please stop, not only losing games because now you have to be deluxe, now this. NO MORE! Please, : (
Why can’t it be re-built to be compatible with Unity 3 which is now the new standard? You have done that with Webkinz to be compliant with HTML5 ….. Unity 3 does work on our browsers!
Because it is difficult to rebuild a 3d game from scratch
This is really sad. I understand why you guys are pulling the plug but I defiantly will miss it. I really loved playing mazin hamsters and being able to explore the hamlets and making mazes. The saddest part is that I don’t even think I will get another chance to play mazin hamsters again because I use chrome. So I guess this is goodbye. Goodbye Mazin Hamsters, we will miss you!
This is a sad moment :(, I guess sense I use chrome it doesn’t matter. Thanks for doing whatever you can to keep the website ship-shape Ganz :)
What browser willl support unity web player for mac?
Will anything work with mac os?
IF the rewards were sent to the W-SHOP then people will be happier since we play for the prizes . USE CHALLENGES to allow ALL to get the FANCIER rewards in the game ;) !!!!!
Why do my posts disappear?
