Neopets - www.neopets.com Review

I'd say it's a great game, but it can get too addicting. I use it now mainly for just chatting with friends that I've made, but if you're new, spending some time and earning NP (the Neopets' currency) to make your stay there more enjoyable. That's another reason: to enjoy a lot of the site, you need to have excessive amounts of NP, which can frustrate many. There can be jerks on the site, but really nice people too. One of the main problems is that the younger kids playing get the idea that they NEED to use real money to play Neopets, when they really don't. The game can be plenty fine without having to use it. It's easy to lose track of time while playing, which can sometimes be kind of scary if you wanted to play for just an hour and then go and finish your homework or whatever, but then you might accidentally slip past that and spend two or more hours on it. If you have lots of time to spare, you'll become a great player. If you don't you can still have fun, but possibly not as much. If you don't think you'd have enough time to play, I wouldn't recommend starting an account. One more thing though: if you have started an account, but you want to lay off a bit, the Neolodge is a great place, it keeps your pets fed for up to 28 days.
