Update #265: What’s New!

 

Hoo-hoo Kinzville! It’s me, your mayor—Dr. Quincy Quack! I’m here again to tell you all about what’s new in Webkinz World today! Let get started, shall we?

 

 

 

  • There are 3 new Exclusive Items to collect! The next time you adopt a pet, you might find one of these cool new prizes inside their adoption gift box: a Salad Bar Fridge, a Trapdoor, or a Messy Room Floor Tile! If you just can’t wait and you’ve been saving up your Wish Tokens, you can also find these awesome Exclusive Items in the Wish Factory! To make some room, we’ve retired the Bubble Wrap Chair.

 

 

 

 

  • It’s almost time once again to collect Jelly Coins! Visit the Clubhouse from March 11th to 17th and chase the Leprechaun! When you catch him, he will give you 1 of 6 colored Jelly Coins. Once you collect all 6, you’ll earn this year’s grand prize: a Clover Topiary!

 

 

 

  • Also look for our floating shamrock event starting TOMORROW, March 9th, and running until St. Patrick’s Day, March 17th! When you see the floating shamrock, click on it to receive some very lucky prizes!

 

 

 

  • Speaking of St. Patrick’s Day, don’t forget to log in to Webkinz on Friday, March 17th to get this year’s special prize: a Leprechaun Garden Statue!

 

 

 

 

  • Also on March 17th, you’ll find a new trophy challenge for one of our classic arcade games! Play Bananza from March 17th to the 19th to complete the challenge and win a NEW Bananza Trophy!

 

 

 

 

  • Speaking of challenges, we’ve made an update so that you can now see your challenges from almost anywhere in the game! There’s no more need to jump back and forth to your room or your Map of Kinzville in order to track your progress. As before, if you don’t want to see your challenge icons, you can always use the Show/Hide button to move them on or off your screen!

 

 

 

 

  • The month of March also means it’s time for another spring Shopping SPREE! Log in to Webkinz each day from March 20th to the 31st to receive a cool piece of spring clothing for your pet and some bonus rolls to use in your next game of SPREE!

 

 

 

 

  • Speaking of spring, if you’re looking to host a party, you can now find our Spring Party Packs in the WShop!

 

 

 

 

  • Don’t miss our Points-A-Day Giveaway! Log in and play between March 11 and 17 to be entered in a random daily draw for up to 100,000 eStore Points!

 

 

 

 

  • We heard some of our players were having trouble with the bottle colors in our new version of Cash Cow. We’re pleased to let you know that we’ve made a quick update to the game to make the bottles much easier to see! Have fun!

 

 

 

 

  • Our next Deluxe Day is on this Saturday, March 18th! Log in and visit the Today’s Activities schedule for a whole day full of fun activities, along with this month’s prize: a Garden Birdfeeder! Each day the birdfeeder will give out a Bird Seed Cookie, for when your pet is feeling peckish!

 

 

  • If you love spinning wheels and winning, you’ll be excited to learn that we’ve once again updated the prizes on the Wheel of Wow for web and mobile, along with the Wheel of Deluxe!

 

 

We’ve also fixed more features and items! To see all of the items we’ve fixed each week, you can check out our list by clicking here.

 

Well now, this sure was fun! Stay tuned to Webkinz Newz for more exciting announcements!

 

Take care, Kinzville!

    Too much great newz to handle!!! I’m doing virtual back flips over that Garden Birdfeeder! What a wonderful surprise! I’m looking forward to all of the St. Patrick’s Day activities and prizes. The spring shopping SPREE and the trophy challenge are exciting. I look forward to trying to save up for the cool looking new wish factory prizes. Thank you for listening and making changes to make the game more user friendly, especially with Cash Cow. It’s nice to know that our opinions are important to you!

    I love all the new prizes and the deluxe gift!!! Thank you Ganz! Your the BEST!!!

    The “brush your pet’s teeth” part of the challenge isn’t working on one account, and the challenge isn’t even showing up on my other accounts. What gives?

  4. TaffyKitty12 says:

    Nice! This looks like a cool update! :D Also, thanks Ganz for fixing the cash cow milk bottles, they look much better! Although I still liked the original design a bit better, I’m glad that this change was made, it’s much easier on the eyes :) Also, I really like this year’s St. Patrick’s Day gift and Deluxe Day prize! Can’t wait! :D

    Wow, there’s lots of stuff going on! I’m especially excited for the St. Patrick’s Day events, the new exclusive items, and Deluxe Day! (I love that prize!!) Also, I’m glad they changed the colors in Cash Cow so they’re not as bright. It looks much better now from the picture. Thanks, Ganz! :)

  6. MidnightLuna says:

    The challenges in the arcade?! Cash cow easier to see?! Thank you Ganz! Life just got a lot easier!!

    • Beckinz8 says:

      Item retire warnings was the campaign promise of one of the candidates for mayor that unfortunately didn’t win. T_T There’s always the next election…

    I’m excited for all of this, but most especially for the Leprechaun Garden Statue, it will be even better than the plushie I’d hoped for in my Irish Castle room! I love the new Exclusives, too. Good luck, everyone, on the Points giveaway!

    • Beckinz8 says:

      OOOooo…Irish Castle room…please tell me that you are going to send that to Michael Webkinz so that he can share it with the rest of us!?! Pleasepleaseplease!

      • 1Emerald1 says:

        I sent it in last year, Beckinz, and Michael did show it then. I’ll try to figure out which date More Room Designs it was shown in & post it here to let you know, then you can have a peek at it!

        • 1Emerald1 says:

          Hey Beckinz, I found it! If you go to News Blog & click on Recent Posts, a search box will open. Type More Room Designs. Blarney’s Castle is on page 6 in the 4th post down called Check Out These Room Designs. It’s an indoor-outdoor room, the last one shown in the video. Happy St Paddy’s Day & may the luck o’ the Irish follow you everywhere!

          • Beckinz8 says:

            Whoa! Absolutely awesome ~1Emerald1!!! Thanks for taking the time to go find it again and for giving me such good directions. I agree with Michelle – your room really seems to tell a story. I love that red curtained set of doors! Is it estore? What is the name of that item? You designed a colossally creative castle! Are we friends in WW? My username is ~kalcan8. :)

  9. Honeybear877 says:

    Thanks for listening! Cash Cow looks and works much better now. Your willingness to listen to your players and make changes based on our input is very much appreciated!

  10. Alphaowlbear says:

    Thank you so much, Ganz, for listening to us and changing the Cash Cow colors. I haven’t played it yet, but it already looks much better! The birdfeeder is such a great prize? It will be hard to decide which outdoor room to put it in!
