Steve Webkinz here! As a sort of continuation of my previous Special Report about the Webkinz mobile app, here’s a look at what’s been updated and added to our list of Webkinz arcade games!
As part of our efforts to move more of Webkinz onto a new code base and have it run on mobile devices, Ganz has been working with a 3rd party company to help update many of our classic arcade games, while also adding some fun new ones!
When the Webkinz mobile app launched in 2013, there were very few games in its arcade. We only had Crafty Canaries, Goober’s Atomic Adventure, Hoppy Little Rocketship, and a mobile version of the Wheel of Wow for people to play.
Since then, we’ve updated and added a few classics to the mobile arcade, which were then also updated on Webkinz.com, including: Atlantiles, Cash Cow, and Polar Plunge!
We’ve also added a whole bunch of NEW games that are quickly becoming just as popular, including: Dogbeard’s Gold, Hatch the Dragon, Jumbleberry Blast, Ms. Cowoline’s Rollcall, and Pet Party Parade!
The good news is that we have several more games in the production pipeline, including more updates to current classics, along with more NEW games that are going to be tons of fun!
Our next game is another new one, arriving on February 14th! Here’s a sneak peek at what it looks like:
Keep watching Webkinz Newz in the coming weeks for the official announcement about this fun NEW arcade game!
This has been Steve Webkinz reporting for Webkinz Newz! What are some of your favorite new games in the mobile arcade, and which classic Webkinz ones would you most want to have added? Let me know in the comments below.
Ohh, that new game looks fun! I hope it isn’t another Deluxe only one. =P As can be seen above, Deluxe members have been getting more new games than regular members recently, so I think it’s our turn for the new game. As for what games I would want added.. hmm.. my favorite game is Flutterbugged, but I really worry that I won’t be good at it anymore once (and if) it comes to the Mobile App. I cannot imagine myself being able to do very well with however that would be done on there, since the controls will have to be different. So I don’t really know what games I’d want on the Mobile App, since I’m sure they’ll have to be changed somehow to work on mobile devices. =/
That’s very true, they will likely be changed so much that maybe I won’t even like any of my favorite games, once they are changed. :( I wish they would at least try and keep them looking the same when they do change them over, not like how Cash Cow was. It was so different looking, colors and everything, it doesn’t feel like the same game any more.
I agree. I really don’t like the new cash cow.
Can’t wait to play this game , Thanks for the new game.
Can you add Goober’s Lab as the app for iPhone can’t be used with the new updated iOS? I miss playing that.
Looks like fun.
I am a HUGE Wacky fan! I am really looking forward to this new game.
I would love to see Tile Tower
Does that ever look like a fun game!! Thank you so much for keeping us in the loop, Steve :)
I have a Webkinz who is going to be very excited about this game!
I would like for Wheres Wacky to added.
Look like fun! I would love to see Pizza Palace on the mobile app :)
