Play WackyER Zingoz
If you like Wacky Zingoz, you’re going to LOVE WackyER Zingoz – the newest game in the Arcade. The object of the game is to complete levels by whacking Wacky multiple times onto and around ice, rock, sand or grass obstacles! When Wacky flies through the air, he can collect coins and boosts (which you can use to make Wacky fly extra-far). Watch the map at the top of the screen and you’ll be able to keep track of how much further you need to go before you’ve completed a level. Try and land Wacky as close to the center of the target at the end of each level for major bonus points! You’re sure to enjoy this even wackier version of an old favorite!
Kinzville is on the Map!
If you’ve always wanted to see what Kinzville looks like, now you can – just go to the Things to Do menu and visit the map! New members will notice question marks on certain buildings. That means that you have to accomplish tasks before you can visit those places (click the question mark to see what you must do). For members who’ve been here for awhile, you may not have to do the tasks, but you can if you like! When you complete a level, you’ll get prizes – and your status will increase. Finish all the levels and you’ll get your very own key to Kinzville to hang on your pet’s wall! Time to get playing!
