One of the main sources of information when we launched Webkinz World was the Webkinz Guide. Every new member could find the guide in their Dock when they created an account. When it was dragged into a room, the pet could open it and find out all of the latest information about the various features on the site.
However, over the years as Webkinz World grew, it eventually became too much to read in a single guide. And we had also begun adding video tutorials to each location in Kinzville. So a couple of years ago, the decision was made to stop awarding the Webkinz Guide to new accounts. Since it could never be traded or sold, those who created an account in the early days still have their Webkinz Guide and can look through it to see what Webkinz World was like back then.
For those who don’t have one, here are a few images from the Webkinz Guide:
I have mine somewhere and I remember being so annoyed at how you couldn’t get rid of the darn thing xD It became hopelessly outdated, but now it is kind of a cool item to have and a testament to the commitment of the older members who are still on
LOL – Love the way you put this! I recall being annoyed too because it got stuck in one of my rooms – now I just have to find that room…..
Oh! And GANZ, Could you do a Throwback Thursday on Tulip trouble 1? I don’t remember it. You have to earn some kc in tulip trouble 2 and I was wondering what the first on looked like.
I’ll pass it on, that’s a good idea. :)
I agree – I was thinking the same thing today when I was playing the game for the challenge. Have fun!
I’ve read that Tulip Trouble 1 was pretty much exactly the same, but it had several bugs in it, so they updated it and called it Tulip Trouble 2.
Or what was wishing well 1?
I have one of these. And I agree. It WAS to much to read in one book! I don’t think I ever read it.
Gosh, I have to find mine. I have over 200 pets .-. and a lot of rooms…
Webkinz guide… Webkinz guide… I have it somewhere. But then again I also have like 50 rooms!!!
ELWIIIN??? ARE YOU HERE???
