Update #283: 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?

 

 

 

 

  • Pet Medallions are a whole new way to get more Webkinz pets, just by playing! Prize pools all around Webkinz World have been updated to include these medallions, including a new prize drop system in the Arcade! Track and manage your Pet Medallion collection in My Pets. Check out our other post today on Webkinz Newz to learn more about this cool new collection system!

 

 

  • While you’re winning prizes around Webkinz World, you may notice a few new ones have been added to the pool, including a Decorative Vase, a Metallic Lake Sign, and a Cookbook Shelf! To make room for these new prizes, we’ve retired a couple of older prizes—the Glass of Lemonade and the Portable Telephone.

 

 

 

  • Do you get goofy over gumdrops? Then you are going to love our NEW Goody Gumdrops game in the Arcade!  Jump and eat gumdrops while watching out for obstacles in this sensational side-scrolling game! There’s even a new trophy to earn the first time you get far into the game!

 

 

  • Visit Daisy Doe in the Clubhouse and click on her to receive an awesome organic food prize every day! We’ve just added a couple of new items to the pool of prizes, along with a new secret recipe for a Savory Fruit Sundae!

 

 

  • Our next Webkinz Shopping SPREE runs from Sunday, June 10th until Monday, June 18th! Log in each day to your Webkinz account on either web or mobile to receive a sweet summer piece of clothing for your pet!

 

 

  • Speaking of SPREE, we’ve just updated the prizes inside the SPREE Shopping Bag! Now each time you open it, you’ll find 3 prizes: a random Mall food item, a random Mall clothing item, and a SPREE Bonus Roll! You’ll also be able to find a few of the former shopping bag prizes in the Outdoor section of the WShop!

 

 

  • You can also find new items in the SPREE Mall to spend your credits on! Next time you reach the end of the game, pick up some Designer Glasses, a Golden Leaf Dining Table, a Golden Leaf Dining Chair, A Golden Leaf Hot Tub, a Dogbeard’s Gold Arcade Unit, or a Perfume Booth! To make room for the new stock, we’ve retired the Giant Zingoz Plushy and the Link’D Arcade Unit.

 

 

  • The 2018 Webkinz Berry Fest starts on Tuesday, June 19th and runs until Thursday, June 28th! Look for berries on the Today’s Activities schedule, the Wheel of YUM, and even floating across your screen! Each berry can either be used to fill up your jam jar collection in Jumbleberry Fields, or you can feed them to your pets for prizes! The Polarberries and Goo-Goo Berries both have updated prize pools!

 

 

  • There will also be a Berry Fest Challenge running during this time! If you missed our Jumbleberry Fields Trophy Challenge, you’re in luck! Once you complete all of the tasks in this year’s Berry Fest Challenge you’ll win a Moonberry Basket, along with a Jumbleberry Fields Trophy!

 

 

  • You’ll want to fill up those jam jars faster because we’ve just updated the prize pools for each berry! Each time you fill up your jars playing Jumbleberry Fields you can choose one of these new prizes! To make room on the preserves shelf, we’ve also retired a few of the older items.

 

 

  • Summer starts in Webkinz World on June 28th! Log in to your Webkinz account on web or on the mobile app to receive a special gift: a Summer Sensation Painting! Also as part of our Summer Sensation celebration, you’ll find the Super Wheel available for a spin on June 28th!

 

  • We’re having a Wacky Weekend event running from June 29th to July 1st! If you reach a score of 11,500 while playing WackyER Zingoz during that weekend, you’ll win some fabulously formal Wacky attire for your pet!

 

 

  • If you like flexing your fashion sense, you’re going to love our next trophy challenge! Play the SuperModelz Trophy Challenge from July 2nd to 6th! Once you complete all of the tasks, you’ll win a SuperModelz Trophy!

 

 

  • Speaking of challenges, Deluxe Members will have their own special challenge to complete during the month of July. Once all of the tasks are finished, they’ll be awarded a Candy Striped Dresser!

 

 

  • Deluxe Members also receive a monthly gift box containing their choice of an item from the NEW Cozy Condo room theme, along with a special piece of clothing that can’t be found anywhere else! July’s Deluxe clothing item is a Solar Flare Dress!

 

 

  • The 2018 Marshmallow Collection event starts on July 1st and runs for the whole month! Send your friends daily requests for marshmallows and you’ll earn the 5 milestone prizes along the way! You can keep collecting prizes as many times as you want until the end of July!

 

 

  • Looking to throw the ultimate summer party for your pet and their friends? The Summer Party Packs are available once again the WShop!

 

 

  • 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!

 

 

Well now, that sounds like lots of fun! Stay tuned to Webkinz Newz for more exciting announcements!

 

Take care, Kinzville!

    Oh wow, it lights up! That is awesome. Can’t wait to win one of the new prizes. All three are pretty cool! Everything is so exciting on WW right now and RL is keeping me from playing as much as I want to. I did manage to play some arcade games on mobile and won a medallion yesterday and today : )

    I won the new decorative vase this morning from the gift box awarded after six log ins. It’s a nice accent piece – we have a lot of flower arrangements, so this is something very different to add variety. It also light up when you click on it. :-)

    Wow, there was so much to take in that I had to read this twice. SO excited for all of these fun things to do & the new prizes- thanks, Ganz!!!

    Seems like we just finished a collection event, but I love them. So I can’t complain. I love the desk.

    I like the new wheel prizes on the Mobile App but I don’t like that the log out tab is gone. You now have to go into options and log out there. However I think it’s way to close to the delete account tab. Someone is going to accidentally delete their account trying to log out.

  6. Kitterzy says:

    Could someone please have the programmers move the “log out” button further away from the “Delete Account” button on the mobile app? At the very least, is there a way to change the color of the button? Twice, I accidentally hit “delete account” and felt a twinge of panic. If it’s possible to take it out of the options menu altogether, that would be great! Thanks!

    • Steve Webkinz says:


      Tapping/clicking the “Delete Account” button doesn’t delete your account. It triggers a confirmation window that requires you to first enter your correct password before it will allow you to make the account deletion request. There is no way to “accidentally” delete your own account.

    This is a marvelous update! Thank you!

    The Goody Gumdrops game? I do NOT like the graphics at all, it looks like those mobile games on the phone, and Rhody that Rockerz Racoon? He doesn’t even have a tail! its like the sweater hes wearing IS his tail because its the same color of it. I do however like the music but I wish there was a way to turn off his voice, his panting gets annoying. The graphics doesn’t even look like Webkinz and remind me of Cash Cows awful graphic update the newest games they’ve added, I apologize but its the truth. I love Webkinz arcade games (Dogbeard Gold is surprising one of my favorite), the old ones have a unique charm about them and the colors aren’t bright and neon. So thats my beef with the game. I do like the update for the pets, and the collector inside me is dying to get those two new pets.

    I love the new pet profile page, too–it’s very well-organized. And the Search feature is fantastic; it was so easy to find my pets!

    I hope everyone has been having as much fun this evening as I have. Everything in this update is just great. And all the new prizes, in Spree, Spree Mall Bags, Jumbleberry Fields, prize pool, and all the wheels are just wonderful. I feel spoiled rotten, Ganz! And so do my pets. Tonight we won a Breakaway Soccer Desk, on the wheel, the Purple Mary Janes from the Spree Mall Bag (which was fantastic good fortune, because those shoes, and the Blue Jean Princess Dress, are my two favorite clothing items among the new Spree Shopping Bag prizes.) We also traded in a jar of Sugarberries for the beautiful Weathered Stool, and we even found two floating medallions. I’m exhausted from all the excitement! lol. Everyone must have been working double & triple overtime to get ready for this update; thank you, thank you!
