Pet Society vs YoWorld
Pet Society
Pet Society is a fun pet-based social game where you not only get to customize your own pet avatar, but also decorate your very own virtual home. The game also encourages you to visit and interact with your friends through the game's many different animations or by simply sending a gift. The most intereting part though is that the game has some really addictive mini-games including a competitive running game where you'll need to make use of speed boosts and avoid obstacles (banana peels); a farm where you can grow massively-sized fruits and veggies, and also use these food items (even cupcakes) to fish for and collect a wide variety of odd-looking fishes.Pet Society was one of the most popular games on Facebook and was played by hundreds of thousands of players from all over the world. However, the game had to be shut down by EA Games (Playfish, the original developer of the game, was acquired by EA) as they have to reallocate their resources elsewhere.
That said, you can check out our list of games like Pet Society for similar games to play. None of them are exactly like Pet Society especially when it's at its peak, but we have plenty of fun alternative games to offer.
YoWorld
YoWorld , formerly known as YoVille, was purchased and revived by Big Viking Games after Zynga have deemed the game to be a loss to maintain. This is a move hugely supported by the large player base and it has brought us here today - to YoWorld, the newly reinstated virtual world game "YoVille". Like the old game, YoWorld lets you create your avatar, customize him or her to your liking, and meet and chat with your new friends in the many venues in the game. There are also a ton of fun mini-games for you to enjoy as well as an online casino containing games like Dice Poker, Dominoes and Lucky Wheel for you to potentially double your money.There isn't a lot of improvement done to YoWorld that really sets it apart from YoVille, but whatever's there is enough to keep its existing fans and player base happy, and give these players a place to return to whenever they'd like to chat or simply to satisfy their nostalgia.
