PetPetPark Beta Guide

Note: This guide is just starting and is graphics heavy. The quests are still missing some details. Please allow time for player input and updates :)

Notice:Thank you mrbrucettesdad for hearing me out and making your changes. Though a little was still left out, I appreciate very much that you added credit for the sections and words borrowed :) *heart*

Last Updated: 6/4/09


5/1/09 - Head start weekend for beta testers! All tester accounts have been reset. You can now recreate your permanent pet.

5/4/09 - Pet Pet Park is Currently in Open beta, which means everyone can play! :) It works similarly to the neopets website except you have real time interaction with your pet pet.

5/8/09 - Patch 1.1 Released. Includes bug fixed, pet and game updates and more! Check out the petpet park website at PetPetPark.com!

5/21/09 - New items Added to the park! Check out the news page for some fancy new clothes for your pet!

6/4/09 - I have been lagging a bit since the Altador Cup was released! Hope to provide more updating soon ;)

As of right now there are 6 pets to choose from. Each species has it's own set of stats in Agility, Charm and Memory. Please note that the Pinixy pictured directly below is the old style. It was recently updated so that color affects the whole pet now, as seen in the color guide below.

Note: be cautious when picking your pet as at this point you can not delete your pets. However, it was stated that this is a future option, along with multiple pets on a single account.










This section is slowly being added. Users who submitted their own images for use have their names attached to the image they provided. The current special colors are Orange, White, and Grey.






Just like with Neopets, your petpets need your love and support. At this point in the game developement your pets can get hungry and will reflect moods based on hunger. When you open your player card you will notice the mood indication in the upper right hand corner. Here is a sample preview to show what is where on your pets profile box:

To increase your pets mood just give him/her something to eat and watch them go! Feeding them is easy! All you need to do is feed your pet your "starter" food or purchase some snacks from "The Munchery". From there just open your inventory and drag the food item to your pet.


When your feeding is successful you will see a notice telling you your pet has eaten. If your pet was feeling down it will also display their mood change shortly after (as seen in the image to the right). If no mood change is displayed it probably means that your pet is as happy as can be :)




Now that we know a little bit about the pets lets work with what to around the park. Upon entrance to the park you will notice two toolbars right away. One at the top, and one below. The bottom buttons (the active buttons) do the following:




Along the top of your screen you will find another toolbar. Here is a list of the workable buttons:


Other buttons exist in game, however some are not operational and others explain themselves. You'll just have to venture into the park to find them all!


Pictured above is an overall image of the Pet Pet Park map (click the image for a larger version). Each square of the map is labeled with its section name. Wandering the map is easy! Like many other games you only have to click the spot to where you want your pet to go. A successful "route" will be indicated by a small paw print on the ground. You can also fast travel by using your map.


When you open your game map, you may have noticed some of the shops and games listed by special icons.What do you mean no!? Oye! Your going to give me grey hairs you know! XD

2) Can we sign up with another account?
According to the rules for the game, yes. To see their Direct Guidelines, please visit: petpetpark.com/help/faq and click "Account Info".

3) Is the park free :O?
At the current moment yes it is!

4) Is there a place I can talk about the game and who is Snarkie?
Yes you can! The Park forum is located here Beta Forum. She is a admin and currently the voice of the petpet park world. She will sometimes make posts and updates on the boards So read them often!

1) Where Can I get basic help for game play?
When the game begins you will be taken through a short tutorial. Be sure to read it carefully. However, in case you were excited and clicked all the way through, the guide is available from the Beta testing Page under the button labeled "Game Guide" (also noted above).

2) What is the gray worm thing we get as a prize from Grimsby!?
At this point it isn't clear. It may be explained as the game progresses.

3) Why can't I make 4 pets now?
That feature isn't active yet. The park is still in open beta. New features are being introduced slowly.

4) What's going on? I played a game and got a high score but it isn't on the score board!
Sometimes there is a delay in score posting. Try logging out and back in after a couple minutes. If that doesnt work try clearing your cache and re-loading the client.

5) There's a scoreboard!? Where?!
If you go to "Park Pointe Center" toward the top right section of that map, there is a clickable "notice board". When you move your mouse over it, it will gain a yellow glow, that is the score board.

6) Is there a limit to how many games you can play?!
I don't have experience with this myself but it was answered on the board by doomsays_: Yes, there's a limit. I stopped getting points after 1200-1300. But, you can keep playing games.

1) Why are some of the words I type in the chat box red?
These are disallowed words. The chat service is still going through updates and modifications. If a word or phrase seems '"oddly" blocked I would suggest you submit a bug report. My guide affiliate _noob101_ is also collecting a list of blocked words.

2) Help! I was typing a message and I was suspended!
Don't panic. It's okay. The chat system is extremely buggy at the moment. Please submit a bug report and/or you can make a post on the boards about it. If snarkie is around she may help out.

3) OMG! The games give so little PP and the items are SO expensive!?
Yep! The point system is currently being worked on. Snarkie also made a post about this as well. The prices are the way they are so that they may modify as the game progresses. The prices you see now aren't necessarily the set prices.

4) I was beta testing before but I came back Today and my pet is GONE! Why?
It's not a glitch. Closed Betas were given a head start from the dates of 5/1/09 at 10pm to 5/4/09 10am. Due to the preparation for open beta testing the accounts were wiped clean, prior to this date. You will need to remake your pet again.

5) I got the bone collar and the pirate hook from the quest but cant see them on my pet!
Yep. This item, though stated to be fixed in the latest update, is still broken. Bummer!.

1) I cant get into the game!
It's ok. The game may be down for maintenance. Check the Beta testing page for news and updates. If there is no update check out the forum for possible updates.

2) The game doesn't seem to load properly.
You might need to clear your browsers cache in order to make sure you have the latest version of the client. You can view instructions for clearing your cache by going to the Beta test page, then click the Help Button and click the link for "tech support". The site for help is listed there.

3) I found a bug what do I do?
Please fill out the Bug Report Form from the park website. You can also, check the forums for more assistance or further updates.

4) Help! I can't delete my pet!?
At this point, no. However, the staff stated that this is a future option.
