NOW that I've become reasonable proficient in Mini-Golf I have been making regular forays into the Tournament Arena. You receive the money you would receive from the game, plus any winnings if you finish in the top place or places.
There are two types of games there. The first is a one-on-one game play. You can either challenge someone on your friends' list or the game will find you an opponent. Mini-Golf is of the other type. You enter a pool of so many people competing in a tournament. You play your game and leave. Later an icon pops up to show you your standing in the tournament.
Now that I've conquered that 17th hole I'm starting to come up in the money.
Most of the Tournament Arena games can also be played in the arcade. Here are the games that are unique:
♣ Trading Card Challenge
You can play the Trading Card game online with a friend or random challenger.
♣ Dogbeard's Bathtub Battles
This is Battleship with sailing ships as befits Captain Dogbeard (a pug). This game can also be purchased in the W Shop and placed in your room.
♣ Farming Frenzy
Be the first to collect the winning amount of tomatoes and sell them at market. Differently colored tomatoes' prices rise and fall as the game proceeds. This game can also be purchased in the W Shop and placed in your room.
♣ Kinz Pinz Bowling
Self-explanatory. The bowling alley is also a rare item and shows up occasionally in the Curio Shop to be purchased and put into your room, but it's expensive, W10,000.
♣ Quizzy's Whiz Kinz
Answer Quizzy trivia questions against an opponent.
♣ Rock Paper Scissors
Just what it sounds like. An old-fashioned game in a new medium.
♣ Webkinz Chef Challenge & SuperModelz
I haven't played these yet. I gather it is a competition of recipes and of clothing combinations.
♣ Zingoz Switcherooz
Have no idea. Looks like it might be a version of Othello.
The rest of the games can be purchased in the W Shop for placement in your room. You earn Kinzcash from them as well. On some of them, you can invite people on your friends' list to come into your room and compete with you.
♣ Air Hockey
Self-explanatory.
♣ Billiards
Ditto.
♣ Jigsawz Breaking News
Jigsaw puzzles at three different levels, with increasing KinzCash rewards.
♣ Skunk Sweeper
This is a version of the arcade game that can be played in your room.
♣ Go Fish
The card game.
♣ Checkers
The board game.
♣ Link'D
Otherwise known under the trade name "Connect Four." :-)
There is one other game at Webkinz World you can play: DiceKinz. This is a virtual dice game only; a roll gives you the ability to move or bump an opponent from the course. To be honest, I don't understand the game well. You get some dice you can play with, but you can also buy additional dice in the W Shop.
