Enjoy a Wendy’s kids’ meal with Pac-Man
I know a lot of people who are going to be going to Wendy’s today. One of the best fast food places out there has teamed up with Namco Bandai for a Pac-Man promotion event. It’s partially to celebrate the 30th anniversary of the Pac-Man series, and part to hype up the latest Pac-Man Wii game, Pac-Man Party. Not that the details matter – what matters is you get Pac-Man toys in your kids’ meals…
Hands on with the Wendy’s Kids’ Meal Petz Dogz game
If you’ve stopped by your local Wendy’s, you may have noticed a familiar logo there. Not the friendly Wendy’s logo, with the red-haired mascot, but the Ubisoft Petz one. For a limited time, various Petz related products are included with a Kid’s Meal. There are five different items – a Crazy 8z card game with animal pictures, a Catz Balancer, a stuffed dog, a Petz Catz PC game and a Petz Dogz PC game. (Note: Both the PC games are rated “Everyone.”)
The toys normally come with a Kid’s Meal, which costs between $2.50 and $3.50. Some stores will sell the toy separately, if you ask nicely. Curious about the quality of Ubisoft’s PC offerings for the promotion, I splurged and paid $1 for a copy of Petz Dogz when picking up some nuggets and a Frosty.
Petz Dogz is surprisingly deep for a Kid’s Meal toy. There are five breeds of dogs to choose from – beagle, border collie, German Shepard, Labrador retriever and pug. Once you pick your dog, you choose whether it is a boy or girl, decide on one of three fur colors/patterns, pick out one of three collars and name him or her. The pet is then plopped into his or her new home…
