Petz 5 is weird on later windows, all of petz should be installed in your documents folder rather than the program files in Windows 7(and I assume 8). I would love to have the game again, seeing this thread makes me want it sooo bad! >.< I checked it out on Amazon and places like it, but they were all forty bucks or more. The suitcase with all the toys appeared to be empty, all the toys were invisible, and there were only a few toys that would be in there. Even the adoption center didn't have anything anymore. The items which were supposed to appear in each area never did, no bottles or food and water bowls, none of the toys that you could only get from grabbing it after entering a room. Then I found out it really was messed up. I had Petz 5! I never did anything fantastic with my pets, just played with them and bred them occasionally, making all sorts of wacky looking cats and dogs! God I loved the game, I tried to reinstall it on my laptop a year or so ago, and I always thought it was broken until I found out I had to change the darn resolution.

There's even an interactive website for Petz that requires you to save up enough cash to open your own shop to sell things, and multiple forums to play on that give you money for participation, etc! The babyz have their own little personalities and people 'hex' them to edit their appearances, while the petz are regularly hexed to appear as different species, there are downloadable breeds/toys/playscenes for them, etc. I used to waste a loooot of time on these games as a youngin', and now I still do haha. There are active forums for BOTH Babyz and Petz (there are multiple games in the Petz franchise, NOT TO BE CONFUSED with the NEW Petz games for DS/handheld gaming systems), and you can actively find both online for free (I could point you in the right direction), since Petz is no longer even being sold and Mindscape is completely gone from the gaming scene. Magic/Mindscape games.Īdopt pixel children, or pixel pets.
