There are plenty of easy, adorable ways to keep your pets entertained inWeyrdlets, a virtual pet care game from Weyrdworks that integrates your little friend onto your desktop with you, and sending them off on an adventure each day is but one way to keep them busy while you work.
While they’re out on their daily adventure, your Weyrdlet will make a Discovery, being exposed to something off on their journey that they may not have otherwise if they stayed at home. They’ll get a stat boost for venturing out, and they’ll even bring back some digs, too.
Send Pets On Adventures Once Each Day
There are already plenty of reasons to log into Weyrdlets each day - collecting your daily rewards, checking intoCalcubot’s General Storeto seewhat decor is in stock, and not to mention caring for your pet overall - but another thing to keep in mind is thatyour pet can go on adventures!
After you’vereached level one, you’ll see thatFetch appears by the boatdocked near your house on Cozy Island in Weyrdlets. They explain how you can send your pets out on seafaring adventures once per day, adding the disclaimer thatpets need to be fed and healthy in order to go. Unhealthy pets will need to stay home andbe taken care of.
To send a pet on an adventure in Weyrdlets after Fetch poofs away,click on the circular icon on the boatto send your pet out on their grand adventure for the day! This immediately starts a timer fortwo hoursto keep track of when your pet will be back.
While they’re on an adventure, your pet will not be available on the desktop or on your island. You can still accessthe desktop mode and its widgetswhile the pet is gone, though.
As soon as the two hours is up, your pet’s boat will dock back at the island, and you’ll see a green icon over the boat reading"Adventure Complete"to let you know you’re ready to collect any rewards that your Weyrdlet may have brought back home.
Before you can claim all your rewards, though, your pet will stop you to chat. Here, your pet gives you a vague description of something they saw on their trip, and you’ll have two responses to help them work out what they saw. These areDiscoveries, and they’ll make a new one each time they head out.
Once made, Discoveries are tracked on yourpet care screenaccessible from the bottom right Hot Corners menu. Each discovery imparts points for a pet’sStats, a grid that fills in slowly but surely above the Discoveries tab. These stats arePlayful, Curious, Logical, Empathy, Resilience,andConfidence.
These stats are a fun way to watch your pet become more unique the more Discoveries they make. This especially makes a difference if you have multiple pets, since it will begin to make them feel different from one another before long.
The only caveat is thatyou can’t choose which Stat is increased. Every Discovery in Weyrdlets has its own stat it boosts, so shaping your pets' Stats is largely left to chance.
