Hamsterz (Nintendo DS)

Product Information

Selecting it, your hamster will declare it's time for a mini-game, and the whole play experience will shift focus. It can take a while for your pet hammie to learn new phrases, repetition of teaching being the key to success. When playing mini-games, if players win, they receive prizes such as food, toys, cages, or cage decorations. Etsy’s 100% renewable electricity commitment includes the electricity used by the data centers that host Etsy. Hamsterz Life aspires to be the most random and nonsensical play experience available on the Nintendo DS, and through its head-scratchingly odd combination of gameplay mechanics, presentational elements and poorly translated text, it just might take that title.

Training consists of teaching the hamster words (which they repeat back in their own hamster speak) by saying the set phrases into the DS microphone. Hamsterz Life lets you raise several breeds of hamsters and build fully customizable homes for them to live in. Training consists of teaching the hamster words (which they repeat back in their own hamster speak) by speaking the set phrases into the DS microphone.In Love Love, and now in Hamsterz Life, you can speak to your virtual gerbil in a set of phrases recognized by the DS microphone. Players can only have one hamster at home at once, any other hamsters that are owned are left with the character Hammy until the player wishes to switch hamsters. It's just an open-ended aspect of Hamsterz Life's gameplay, one of many random and unrelated elements all thrown in together in this one title.

Its brand, signature letter "z" included, associates it with Ubisoft's other Petz properties, like Dogz and Catz. Just as in the other Petz games, players can interact with their hamsters by training, playing with, and feeding them.The game is easy enough for younger children, but with the animal aspect; it'd be great for girls up to at least age 10, I think. The game began life in Japan as Love Love Hamster, a third-party alternate animal answer to Nintendogs. Some of the technologies we use are necessary for critical functions like security and site integrity, account authentication, security and privacy preferences, internal site usage and maintenance data, and to make the site work correctly for browsing and transactions. The only complaint I have is that she NEVER wants to turn her game off, because she loves the hamsters she creates, names, and cares for :) With all the different hamsters to choose from, and all the mini-games that earn your hamster treats/toys/etc.

The hamster can repeat these phrases back, but it presents as a speech bubble from the hamster without audio. Zhu Zhu Pets include two play modes: nurturing mode where the hamsters coo and purr and adventure mode where the hamsters explore their habitat with intelligent audio and mechanical responses to various habitat stimuli.

It's a weirdness only achievable through a globetrotting journey of acquisition, rebranding, relocalizing and publishing. They get to select their hamsters, name them and then play different games and make different homes for them.
