Updates Coming for Pet Medallions…

 

 

In our last release we changed Webkinz forever with the ability for players to earn free pets just by regularly playing the game. Your response has been overwhelmingly positive to this new feature. Who doesn’t like free stuff?

 

We have also heard your requests to make the medallions easier to collect. And we will be making some exciting changes in this regard.

 

First though, let us explain that yes, we rolled out Pet Medallions knowing that they would be difficult to collect a lot of them over this first release. We did this for two reasons:

 

  1. We want trading in your medals for a new pet to be exciting. Like that first time you traded in your Gems for the legendary Crown of Wonder. Something that you worked hard for and that is very satisfying when you succeed at reaching your goal.

 

  1. To get that balance right, it’s always easier to add new methods of collection, than it is to take methods away.

 

So far we’ve had three ways to collect:

 

  1. Our initial floating medallion event that awarded one per day.
  2. Our arcade prize system that can award up to 10 per day.
  3. Our Daily Gift award, as many of you were surprised to discover as we kept this one a secret for you to find

 

Starting in our next release we will be making the following changes to give you even more chances to find medallions:

 

  1. We are significantly improving the odds of getting a prize drop when reaching a good score in the arcade, and we’re improving the odds of your prize being a pet medallion.

 

  1. We are improving the odds of getting a medallion from the Daily Gift.

 

  1. Starting in August, Deluxe Members will receive pet medallions in their monthly Gift Box in addition to the current monthly awards.

 

  1. We will be adding Medallions to the Wheel of Wow and as prizes for some of our Daily Activities in a future release. We had hoped to have these in the next release but we’ve run into some technical issues.

 

  1. Finally, in our August release we will be replacing the current Magic W floaty-clicky prize pool with Pet Medallions! Yes, you’ll have a chance to find another pet medallion every day!

 

We are also adding another SIX pets for you to collect in this next release, taking the total available up to 18. Here’s a sneak peek of these pets:

    I only got the floating one for two days in a row and have not seen it since.

    Since the pet medallions are all random adding 6 more pets makes it more difficult to get enough medallions of any one pet to actually receive a pet.

      You can get 10 and trade for an any pet medallion! I think that is how it goes. But do we trade 10 to get one and is that worth one or 10?

    When do all these changes go into effect?

  4. migrubbs says:

    I want the Clouded Leopard Signature, Iberian Lynx, Signature King Charles Spaniel, Fiesta Chihuahua, Signature Black Lab, Splash Dragon, Signature Bengal Tiger, and the Sweet Spice Cat to be medallions.

    yus! arctic fox! I got an arctic fox from the thrift store with no code so now I can get her online if I collect enough medallions

    Can you still get them from games? I haven’t gotten one from any game that I have played so far. What is a “good score”?

  7. Nicthewerecatqueen says:

    Cool! If I get the Tuxedo cat I’ll name it Geopetto in honor of my real life tuxedo cat. The mystical panda I’ll probably name Rascore after a character of mine who shares the same color palette
