Neopets, similar to a virtual Tamagochi, has been around for about a decade and has more than 45 million users. Neopets Puzzle Adventure combines the addictive gameplay of reversi and sets it up in the world of Neopia, where adorable neopets run wild.
You begin by picking your neopet from one of 12 different species, ranging from Scorchio to Xweetok, with the ability to change the color and gender. Gender doesn’t exactly affect how your neopet is going to look, but the option is there anyway. Once you provide your neopet with a snazzy new name, you are whisked away to an enchanting area called Shenkuu, an Asian-themed village nestled on a quaint mountainside. As a newcomer, you are immediately recruited to first help scare off a blobagus and then it seems that everyone has something for you to do. The tasks are set up so that you enter a strategic game of reversi, where the goal is to take up as much of the board as you can with your colored token. The story sets itself up around these reversi challenges, so you’ll be walking around the map for awhile and running from one end of the mountain to the other doing errands. The story may not be riveting, but the dialogue is silly and fun so it keeps you pushing forward.
