Superpoke Pets – Virtual Pets Goes Social

So what is this? A cartoon? Not quite; it’s a virtual pet. His name is Notatoy.

Notatoy is my pet persona in the virtual pet game Superpoke Pets by Slide.com. Yep, the same folks that brought you Superpoke on Facebook.

Superpoke Pets isn’t a terribly exciting game, nor it is incredibly challenging as a game.  It is like Tamagotchi online.  The same basics of feeding, play and interacting apply. The added bonus is the social part of it.

Your pet isn’t just enjoyable by you, but your friends as well.  Contacts can play with your pet, feed him and give gifts.  Likewise you can do the same for them.

Along the way you can earn badges for being a big gift giver or receiving lots of gifts.  There are also lots of items to buy for your pet.

Items range from clothes to food, and lots in between. You’ll find lots of backgrounds, and many items to decorate with. I’ve chosen an Asian theme in general, with lamps, background, and even a kimono.

Slide has added new items on a quite regular basis, with special occasion items for all of the recent American holidays.  Heck, they even brought on stuff for Mardi Gras, and the Oscars.

Yes, it’s still a silly little game and it’s on Facebook, but what the heck. It’s a 5 minute time waster that brings nothing but smiles.

Come visit Notatoy.

Yours,
