Home Before Dark is a Webkinz World Arcade game. It was added to Webkinz World on September 27, 2007.
Object
The object of this game is to get the Webkinz to the houses on the other side of the board. You must move game pieces around to make a path for the Webkinz from the park to their houses or a party. There is a time limit for each level of the game which is when the sun goes down and the moon comes up, so act quickly!
Controls
Use the mouse to click on pieces to get them to rotate and connect with other pieces to make a trail.
Trophy
There is no trophy available for this game.
Scoring
Create paths from the park on the left to the houses on the right to score points.
- A base value per homed pet is given depending on the level, which doubles for the party house.
- Walk through toys to add double the home points to your score.
- Paths through which the pet walks offer an increasing level of points depending on the level, whereas dead-end paths attached to the main path give a flat 1 point per tile.
The game increases in difficulty and the points offered per item increase as the game progresses, according to the following values.
Level | Houses Available | Home Points | Path Points |
---|---|---|---|
1 | 7 | 10 | 2 (floor) |
2 | 7 | 10 | 2 |
3 | 7 | 12 | 2 |
4 | 6 | 12 | 3 |
5 | 6 | 12 | 3 |
6 | 6 | 14 | 3 |
7 | 5 | 14 | 3 |
8 | 5 | 14 | 4 |
9 | 5 | 16 | 4 |
10 | 4 (floor) | 16 | 4 |
11 | Floor | 16 | 4 |
12 | Floor | 18 | 5 |
13 | Floor | 18 | 5 |

Tips
- Try to connect more pieces in your path to get more points. To get the best score and save time, try to incorporate a path to as many houses as possible to get the most Webkinz home as you can.
- The number of Webkinz you still need to get to houses before the sun goes down is listed next to a navy blue paw print at the top of the game screen.
- If you use a piece with a toy on it as apart of the path, you score extra points if a Webkinz picks it up on its way to their house. Only the toys that are picked up by a Webkinz are scored.
- The sun and moon are "paused" while the webkinz are going down the paths to their homes. This occurs when one path is completely connected from the park to a house or houses.
- To keep things straight, yellow lit up pieces are connected to the park, orange lit up pieces are connected to the houses, dark sandy pieces are not connected to either side, and once a path is connected to both sides, it lights up blue.
- There are not multiple "lives," or chances, in this game. If you do not get enough webkinz home before dark, it's game over!
- Each of the blue tiles (pieces that are connected to both sides) will be given a point value. The pieces that the Webkinz travel on are worth more points than the "extra" tiles connected to the path which the Webkinz do not touch.
- Try to work from the houses backwards to the starting point. It helps to get more rooms connected.
High Scoring
Although this game is endless, the maximum score is 30,000 points in the arcade and 20,000 points in the tournament arena. If a game exceeds this score, an error message will display, the score will not register, and KinzCash will not be rewarded.
