Two Playing Modes in Happy Pet Story

16/9/2019

Hey Townies,

A reminder that there are now 2 playing modes in Happy Pet Story: Child-Friendly and Online Mode. I still see players saying they lost all their friends or couldn’t visit others - You probably went into Child-Friendly mode, where there is zero interaction with others.

How to change to Online Mode?
If you wanna enjoy the original gameplay and your age is appropriate, go to Parental Controls and answer the question to unlock Online Mode.

Happy Pet Story now listed in Family section
On Google Play, we were also accepted into “Ages 6-12” and “Pretend Play” sections under the Family category. Officially, kids can now play our game in a safe and controlled environment using Child-Friendly mode. Yay!

As always, if you find anything else, feel free to talk to me. Enjoy your time in Happy Pet Story!

Love,
Mojo🐾
