Neopets vs Party Town
Neopets
Neopets is rather old yet entertaining simulation/virtual world game that lets you adopt and take care of magical and unique pets. This means that you'll be expected to build them a home, buy them food, clothes and other cool stuff. Set in a cartoonish and immense world, you can even set off on exciting adventures with your pet. Best part is that thepets in this game can grow alongside you and they have different looks for different stages of growth, much like the Pokemon in a Pokemon game. There are plenty of fun mini-games to keep you engaged for hours on end as well.
Although the game is a bit on the old side (being released in 1997 and all), the game still holds its charm for players who want a game that's a combination of a usual pet simulation/collection game with a virtual world game. It's free to play and you can play it directly from your browser!
Party Town
Party Town is a fun pet-based game that's really quite similar to the game, Pet Society. In this game, you get to take care of your pet by regularly feeding and bathing it. You can take it out for shopping sprees, and dress your pet up in the latest fashion. As your pet has its own virtual home as well, you can also purchase cute decorations and furniture to spruce up the place. Similarly, Party Town is a social game. This means that you're encouraged to interact with other people, play fun mini-games, and even get married.Overall, if you loved playing Pet Society before it got shut down, you'll definitely enjoy playing Party Town. The game is very similar in so many ways and it may even remind you of the good old days when PlayFish (the developer) is still around.
