Hungry Hog ✫✫✫✫

[Pears]

Do you guys think hungry hog encourages kids to eat junk food? And Not to eat veggies? They deduct points for eating the veggies. ???

I started to wonder the same thing myself, particularly because Hungry Hog 2 actually gives extra points if you eat the veggies. Granted, it adds more junk food to the maze just like in the original game, but you do get extra points. It seems interesting to me that they would make that kind of change to the game for any other reason than to reward players for eating veggies. Personally, I think parents are more to blame for young kids overeating than a little pig game. But thats just me.

I used to think this way, but a lot of people changed my opinion. It's really just a silly game, and most of the time pigs are depicted as eating junk food.

Here is an old thread I made on this same topic, if you were interested in checking it out.

Also, can I ask what the symbols are in your title. For me, they just show up as little boxes with numbers in them. I was pretty sure that was not actually what they were supposed to be, so I thought I would ask. Thanks!

They were stars.

Back to the thread. I also wonder why they couldn't have made it the other way around but it is just a silly game.

its just a game...

I know it's just a game. I don't even care that much about it. I just want to know what other people think. Is that a bad thing??

I haven't notice this but this is a great thread so I'm flagging it to show the mods! Also rep for you too!!!

Yes, the same thing happened with barbie. The game is fun, true, but I don't think they should have done it like that. THey should have done it like, a rabbit who eats carrots but can't eat anything else, or somthing like that.

It's not a bad thing AT ALL.

No, no, no.
