Virtual Pets

As a kid, I loved Neopets, and I still enjoy online pet-raising and collecting games. Here are some that I've played! (old-school "adoptables" have their own page here)

Chicken Smoothie

Collect a huge number of different pets! New litters released at the beginning of the month. Has a large and robust trading economy, if you're into that.

Dragon Cave

Raise hundreds of different species of dragons! Has a large and active community.

The Final Outpost

Sci-fi creature raising game. Features quests, and a really cool genetics system that causes individuals within a species to vary in their colors, patterns, and features.

Magistream

Collect over a thousand different creatures of a wide variety of species! Also has quests, shops, and lots of lore.

Pixpet

Pet game with lots of features. Housing, cooking, minigames, and a text-based RPG adventure system!

Protochroma

Newer petsite with a sci-fi theme. Has an exploration/dungeon-delving system.

Xanje

Pet collector/clicker with a casual vibe. Tons of species and patterns with randomly-generated colors for a huge variety of unique pets.
