Little Steps

So how do you play with your Zhu Zhu Pet on your DS? Well, first you get to select a lovable hamster all your own. Then you care for and lead it through 30 different twisty mazes featuring skateboards, hamster balls and cars as you collect coins, stars and carrots. Along the way, you unlock more hamsters and way to interact with and love. But don’t forget to feed your pets, help them exercise, keep them rested and show them that you love them!
