Ella McWoof here! With your help, I’ve been sniffing around for some more information about the secret project known only as “Webkinz X”.
Great news, fellow detectives! I’ve uncovered the top secret documents from Ganz headquarters that explains everything!
I’ll be posting these discovered documents right here in my column starting TODAY!
Here now is the first part of my EXCLUSIVE SCOOP!
Over the past 10 years, Webkinz World has continued to grow and evolve. Webkinz X is the next step in that evolution, as we update some important elements in the game to help take it to the next level!
The main goal of Webkinz X is to make your pets feel more alive and interactive, and to make them more central to the way you play. Taking care of your pets has always been a part of Webkinz World, so we wanted to improve upon this idea, making it both more important AND more rewarding.
Webkinz X will see an update to your pet’s meters, so that they will now look like this:
While the Happiness and Hunger meters remain, instead of Health you will instead need to watch your pet’s Energy. The more things you do with your pet, the happier they will get. However, they will also get hungrier and get tired faster. You will still be able to feed, bathe, groom, and exercise your pets to give them an Energy boost, but eventually your pet will need to sleep in order to get their Energy back. However, all you’ll need to do is give them a nap in any bed, and after a few minutes, they will once again be ready to play!
While these meters will move up and down a lot more as you play, it will only be for your active pet. Once you give one pet a nap, you can simply switch to another and continue to play with them instead!
Feeding your pets will also be more realistic, as we’re updating all of the foods so that big meals will fill them up faster, while smaller snacks will only give them a bit of a boost. However, this also means that your pets won’t want to eat a big meal when they’re almost full. So now you’ll need to be more selective when choosing what to serve your pets!
Stay tuned to my column on Saturday, June 13th and I’ll reveal MORE about filling the Pet Care Heart!
So, fellow detectives, what do YOU think about Webkinz X so far? Let me know in the comments below!
I’m not much on change so j don’t know how much I will like this.
This is so exciting! I knew that there were going to be new meters because of the clues we were given. I can’t wait to see all the other wonderful things that Webkinz X will bring!!!
I’m fine with this change, but I am going to miss the percentage numbers. Example: 100 next to the hunger symbol. Or 94 next to the happiness symbol. It doesn’t seem like we would have space for the new idea on the bottom bar, but maybe all of that is changing, too. :)
Here’s an idea – instead of eXacerbating your eXisting glitches, and eXasperating your players, by eXecuting even more code and messing everything up further, why don’t you clear up the bugs that have driving us all crazy for so long? For instance, I have to play Goober’s Lab almost daily for the Adventure Park. Almost daily, it doesn’t conclude, forcing me to log out and not get the money for a game I hate anyway. And that’s only one thing, I’m sure there are others on here who could add more to this list.
That’s pretty cool! I personally hate change but I’m sure I’ll get used to this meter. ;)
I think this sounds pretty cool! I’m glad there will still be some reason to take care of your pets now that they can’t get sick anymore. It gives much more purpose to having virtual pets. My only problem might be the meters going down more often because I tend to be a bit of a perfectionist with keeping all my pets’ meters full. It kinda bothers me when they’re not all at 100, so I keep feeding them and putting them on the treadmill if the meters go down even a bit. I’ll have to work on that, I guess, because now keeping the meters full might be more challenging. Still, I don’t think that’s necessarily a bad thing. I can’t wait to find out more about this.
I am much the same about my pets’ levels & was thinking pretty much the same things. I’m really Xcited now to see how it’s all really going to be once they make the changes.
Yay! I like the sleep meter. The health one became sort of obsolete once Dr. Quack left.
actually I think there still is a heath meter. Its the heart! Look at it. It says “health” on it.
I think this is a great change!
I really hope you just click your dress sign to dress your pet because before you had to go to your room or a clubhouse room this is soooo cool!!!!!!
I never did see Ella in the park for clues, also never have seen the Mayor.
Turn off ADblocker (I think thats what it’s called) and you will se Ella and everyone else. Hope I helped! :D
