What’s It About?
ZOOBLES! is a pet simulation game that is similar to Nintendogs. Kids interact with their Zooble in the \"Happitat\" by using the stylus to pet it, play with it, give it a bath, tend a vegetable garden, and other activities that become available throughout the game. Kids collect coins called \"Zoints\" and acorns to unlock new Zooble friends to interact with, and new items and furniture to decorate the Happitat. Eventually, players will unlock new worlds to visit for a total of six.
Is It Any Good?
Kid-friendly Zoobles! is a colorful game with a friendly narrator who keeps kids on track with suggestions and tips. Kids will enjoy unlocking new items for the Happitat, because these accessories aren't just decorative but also introduce new activities for the Zoobles to play. The trampoline and slide, for example, unlock screen-tapping mini-games to play, while the wardrobe allows kids to dress their Zooble up in different outfits.

Did we miss something on diversity?
Research shows a connection between kids' healthy self-esteem and positive portrayals in media. That's why we've added a new "Diverse Representations" section to our reviews that will be rolling out on an ongoing basis. You can help us help kids by suggesting a diversity update.
