Play Pet Resort for the DS
"Paws and Claws Pet Resort" for the Nintendo DS allows players of all ages to care for a variety of animals, including rabbits, horses and dogs, while trying to keep an entire animal resort running smoothly. Mastering the controls and learning the goals for each level is the key to playing a successful game and earning more stars. The game uses cute animals to teach multitasking and responsibility in a realistic environment.
Instructions
1. Turn on the Nintendo DS and wait for the title screen, then fill in your name to create a new profile. Choose between "Normal Game" mode, "Free Game" mode and "Riding" mode. The normal mode lets you play through the main story mode of the game, while the free mode allows you to pick two pets to practice caring for. Riding mode is a small section of the game where you can ride your horse. Choose "Normal Game" when you start so that you can play the tutorial.
2. Follow the instructions on the tutorial to learn care for your pets. You'll start out caring for a rabbit. Use the control pad to move your character and navigate through menus. Press the "A" button to select an item on a menu and the "B" button to cancel and go back to the previous screen. Use the stylus to interact with pets and items on the screen.
3. Touch the computer in your character's house to buy supplies. It's important to have enough food for all of your animals and to buy items for each animal's special needs. When a customer brings you a new animal, click the customer to read the animal's description. At the bottom of the description you'll notice some circles. Touch the green circles to see the animal's needs. For example, the diamond represents luxury. An animal with this need will want a special luxury item, which you can buy from the computer.
4. Order computer supplies as soon as possible. It takes a day for them to arrive. Certain items, like food, are available from stores located in town, but not all items are there, so try to keep items backed up so you'll always have extra supplies.
5. Take supplies from your storeroom by selecting the bookshelf in the first room of your house. Choose what item you want. You can carry up to seven items at one time. If you need more than seven, you'll have to come back and get the rest. To feed an animal, select the bookshelf with the stylus, then select the food. Select it again to feed another animal. Carry up to seven portions of food outside and click the animal's bowl to put the food in it.
6. Care for animals by touching them with the stylus and choosing a command from the menu that appears. Touch items to interact with them. To clean an animal's enclosure, for example, you'll find a cleaning tool either inside or near the animal's enclosure. Select the cleaning tool and you can start cleaning.
7. Assign up to three actions for your character to perform. After these three commands are finished, you can assign more. You can stop certain tasks before they're completed by clicking on a different task, while others must be completed before your character can move to a new task.
8. Select the black and white target button in the bottom, right-hand corner of the screen to see your goals for the level. Complete these goals to progress in the game. If you don't complete a level, start over and avoid the mistakes you made.
