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 don’t understand the daily mediallion someone says it’s right when you log on by the advertisements and nope haven’t seen it at all!

      When you first log in, you receive a daily prize. It is usually a food item, but a pet medallion sometimes replaces the food as the gift.

    Great news! I love finding a medallion as my daily gift and now there will be even more chances. not getting any for games, no prizes at all, even when completing all levels like crafty canaries or atlantiles

    • catladyinpajamas says:

      I received prizes and medallions at first but then a few days later I only received prizes and nothing on the 8th level of Atlantiles.

    You are always so generous with the fun stuff….it’s too bad there are so many complaints and people feel entitled. I am having fun collecting the medallions…yes it is frustrating when you complete a game multiple times and no medallion, but it sure is exciting when you finally get one! Thanks again.

    yes, yay, i had hoped for such an update, as the pet medallions offered more than a comparable challenge, but an elusively near impossible goal; so now i may seek these rather than reject the attempt–thanks for recognizing this & kudos for the upcoming proactive solutions :) -k.
