In Petz, you are a professional fashion designer, trying to help your fashion-savvy friends win the beauty contest. The underlying game is that of a social media competition where players compete to be the first to post their designs on the online platform, and to be elected into the fashion competition. Players canickrush each other in, and away from the competition, but only if they want to. There are various themes that are available, such as school term, Valentine's Day, or Christmas, and players have a few minutes to post their designs, which will then be judged by a team of judges. The game is played on a real-life website, so there is no need to worry about costs or location. There are also many different kinds of currency, which can be changed into other currencies if you want to try out different ones. Nintendo DS units come with the game, and can be purchase with real-life currency.
