Yesterday when I played Hungry Hog in both the tournament arena and arcade, I noticed some changes to the game that I am wondering if others are experiencing as well. I noticed the bees move faster/seem smarter. You do not get a new life in 5000 increments...you now get one at 7250 and 16000. Also, when I finish, Webkinz takes away a part of my score. Today, I finished at 14320 and it knocked me down to 9570. Yesterday, I was over 20000 points and it knocked me down as well. Wondering if others are seeing this? Thanks! | | | 02-23-2009, 10:19 AM | #2 | Gift Guru Join Date: Jan 2008 Posts: 1,661 | Re: Changes to Hungry Hog? That wouldn't surprise me at all- GANZ has been 'reprogramming' several of the arcade games to make them harder and less fun.
But taking points away from you- that's just cheap... | | | 02-23-2009, 10:49 AM | #3 | Webkinz :) Join Date: Jan 2009 Posts: 164 | Re: Changes to Hungry Hog? | | | 02-23-2009, 02:17 PM | #4 | Lil Kinz Join Date: Feb 2009 Posts: 6 | Re: Changes to Hungry Hog? I just talked with Ganz, and she promised she would check into and get an answer for me. I just played again and now, it appears, that extra lives are randomly added. I got one sooner than 7250 and sooner than 16000 so I am not sure of the timing now. But I got up to a score of 23230 and was knocked down to 13230. I will let you know if I hear back from them with an answer.
Thank you for the warm welcome to WI. I look forward to being a helpful participant. | | | 02-26-2009, 10:37 AM | #5 | Lil Kinz Join Date: Feb 2009 Posts: 6 | Re: Changes to Hungry Hog? I spoke with Webkinz customer service today, they are checking into this issue that I posted. I will advise. | | | 03-01-2009, 04:40 PM | #7 | snarkeyop Webkinz :) Join Date: Feb 2009 Posts: 839 | Re: Changes to Hungry Hog? i liked the old hungry hog better. it was easy to get kinzcash. now it's much more harder for me  | | | 03-02-2009, 10:11 PM | #8 | Lil Kinz Join Date: Feb 2009 Posts: 6 | Re: Changes to Hungry Hog? I was beginning to think I was the only one with this issue! Customer service has yet to call me back with an answer. I can't believe they are not aware of changes made with WW. Yes, it is less enjoyable now. Do you think they target those of us that score high numbers? My daughter can get to level 21 or 22 and she is only 7. | | | 03-05-2009, 07:40 PM | #9 | bgrill Webkinz :) Join Date: Mar 2008 Posts: 20 | Re: Changes to Hungry Hog? I noticed the changese as well! I thought it was just a little glitch. I hope this is one of the problems that is being addressed right now during the server improvements! Keep your fingers crossed...! | | | 03-06-2009, 09:30 AM | #10 | Good Luck Chefs!! Webkinz :) Join Date: Nov 2007 Posts: 1,294 | Re: Changes to Hungry Hog? Lately I have been hooked on this game too, my high score from quite a while ago is around 20,000, now when I have been playing I only get around 9,000, I thought it was just me because I had not played it in such a long time and noticed I could not get to certain levels that I used to get to.

I paid attention to my score today and I had over 15,000 and when I was done it said my score was 8800, that is terrible.... Last edited by AChip; 03-06-2009 at 09:30 AM..
