Babyz
from Focus Multimedia Ltd
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION Make way for Babyz! Adopt an adorable virtual kid in this amazing, playful CD-ROM simulation of child rearing from the company that brought you Catz and Dogz. Each Babyz (that's singular, too) is darling and unique--choose one of 15 to adopt or, if none of them is just right, check out their Web site with plenty more to pick from, changing every day.
You can have up to three in one house, and then the fun begins. Name your Babyz, clothe them, give them toys, feed them, watch them play in the backyard, or just give them a tickle when they look bored. The software runs both like a normally selected program and as a screensaver--if you're not careful, the Babyz will take over your screen when you're not looking!
The graphics are playful and imaginative, the costumes are cute, and the house itself is full of stuff for the Babyz to explore. The package comes with voice-recognition software so you can even talk to your Babyz--or teach them to speak. Short, simple words will start yammering back at you before long, and you'll wonder how you ever lived without a babbling Babyz in your computer. --Rob Lightner

BABYZ UPGRADE. Posted: 17 January 2006
I think that Babyz is a really well made programme, i have
spent many happy hours using this product.
Then as a special treat, i was bought a laptop this christmas,
and my old pc was sold. To my horror, i found out that Babyz is not XP compatible! I am so dissappointed, because i can no longer use my beloved Babyz. Computers are being upgraded all the time, so why not our favourite programmes. I've tried using compatability programme, but it does'nt work. Please, please, for me, my friends, and other Babyz hopefulls, can you bring Babyz up to modern Pc requirements.
MANY THANKS,
Suzanne Bassinder.

What can I say? You have to buy Babyz. Not just because of the simulation oppurtunities it contains, but because of the fun and graphics too!! You can dress your Babyz, diapers, tops, trousers and even socks, and dress them in little bows and costumes too!! Bathe them, are they hungry? Take them to the kitchen and feed them, until they learn themselves, that is!! Remember, however, that with voice recognition, tell them off if they misbehave!! Take a trip to the family room and read, play and listen to music. Socialise in the play room and discover in the attic, until your Babyz need to rest in the nursery!! You can adopt loads of Babyz, three at a time can be out, but you can send them to Grandma's house!! I would recommend this game. However, the game is, unfortunately, NOT compatible with Windows XP computers. I myself have a Windows XP Home Edition Computer, and it will not work. I got it working by looking on websites, and once you do get it working, (and it's very easy to do so,) you have to, sadly, turn off the Babyz sound for it to work. And it is very very fast. But don't let that disappoint you!! Without sound you can guess what they are asking for!! Also, there are a very limited number of interactions with your Babyz, but use your imagination and help your Babyz grow. I would recommend this game. There may not be a Babyz two, but I still recommend this game!!
**This game is not supported on Windows 2000 or Windows XP, however, turning off the sound allows it to work.**
THE BEST GAME EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Posted: 16 June 2005
the best game ever you must try it because:
You get to watch the babyz grow, learn to walk and talk and notice the world around them. You have to feed, bathe, change, put to bed and interact with your babyz. You can adopt 3 at a time but by sending them to grandma's house you can always adopt more, the babyz love to interact with each other but the ocasional sibling rivalry may break out so watch them closely. You can also play music and plant seeds, not to mention cooking their food in the microwave and changing their outfit, you can pick it from the top all the way down to the socks. Babyz are so cute! You get to teach them to do anything, from throwing a ball to teaching them to speak! You can adopt up to 3 babyz at a time, and if you want to adopt more, just simply send them to Grandma's house, where she will gladly look after them.All of the babyz are sooooo cute and each one is different - shy, a fussy eater, playful, loving but you can guarantee that each baby is mischievious and will love exploring every room, from the playroom to the garden! If you want to change your baby'z name after you've adopted it, just click on rename and chose a name you prefer.If you want to buy this game, i would DEFINATELY recommend it because babyz is without a doubt the BEST virtual game around!!!!!!!!!! Good luck with all your cute little babyz!!!
