Animal Jam – Play Wild!

In Animal Jam, kids can create their own animal avatars and customize their adventures. The game includes numerous minigames and activities for players to engage in, such as decorating their home or collecting items that can later be traded. Some of these activities will allow players to earn gems, the in-game currency. Animal Jam can also be used as a social tool since it includes an open chat and private messaging feature, but these are both optional elements of the game.

The game includes a basic tutorial.

Though the game must be played online, parents can adjust the settings so that younger players don't ever have to interact with anyone.
