Hangry Petz: Ill-Tempered Toys Now on Mobile

Hangry Petz is making its way to mobile with a fresh twist—an action RPG experience that brings the beloved, perpetually grumpy plush toy line to life. In this whimsical adventure, players will explore a vibrant city through the eyes of these adorable yet always-hungry characters.

The game invites you to unlock new zones, restore the iconic Hangry Treehouse, and—most importantly—keep your petz well-fed. Managing their hunger bars becomes a central mechanic, adding a layer of care and responsibility not often seen in casual mobile RPGs. It’s a concept that feels familiar yet fun, drawing comparisons to classic virtual pets like Tamagotchis, but with an action-packed twist.
