Daring Dig - You play a Zomutt (petpet) and using the arrow keys, you must dig through the dirt, collecting gems, on your way to the finish line at the bottom of the screen. Each gem color is worth a different amount. The dirt comes in different shades of brown with each darkening of a shade indicating how many digs it takes to get through - lightest shade = 1 dig, middle shade = 2 digs, darkest shade = 3 digs.
Faellie Labyrinth - You play a Faellie (petpet) and must move through the maze, making your way to the treasure chest in the middle. You can use the arrow keys on your keyboard or your mouse to move your Faellie through the maze. Make sure you hit the colored switches to open gates and click on the wooden doors to break them down.
Nova Matcher - Match any two novas of the same color and background by clicking on them. The player with the most matches wins.
Petpet Snare - In this game, you will have to use your mouse to draw a "loop" around the various petpets. The petpet you need to draw your loop around will be indicated at the top of the game board. You can draw a loop around more than one petpet, but the petpets must be of the same species. If your loop touches a different petpet, your loop is invalid. Also, if one of your opponents makes a successful loop while you're in the middle of your loop, you must start your loop over. The person snaring the most petpets wins.
Spyder Scare - First, look in the bottom left corner to see what color your username is. The color of your username corresponds to the eye color of your Spyder. Your goal is to grab as many items from the bottom of the screen as possible. You can move your mouse side to side to make your Spyder move across the screen. Your Spyder's eyes will constantly scan the screen as well. When your Spyder's eyes are facing the direction of an item you would like to grab, click your mouse to make your Spyder drop and grab the item. The player with the most items wins.
