Adopt Me! is a massively multiplayer online role-playing game on the gaming platform Roblox. The nominal focus of the game is a role-play wherein players pretend to be either parents adopting a child, or children getting adopted, but in reality, the game’s focus is around adopting and caring for a variety of different virtual pets, who can be traded with other players. As of July 2020, the game had been played upwards of ten billion times. DreamCraft, the independent studio behind the game employs roughly 30 people, and has accumulated a total of $16 million dollars in revenue, mostly from microtransactions.

Gameplay

Adopt Me! revolves around adopting and caring for a variety of different types of pet, which hatch from eggs. Pets are grouped into 5 classes, based around rarity and cost. These groups are common, uncommon, rare, ultra-rare and legendary. Once hatched, pets grow from their starting status as newborns through several stages of growth until they are fully grown. If a player has four fully grown pets of the same type, they can combine them to form a “Neon“ pet, and four fully-grown neon pets can be combined into a “Mega-Neon” pet. Purchases within the game are facilitated both by Roblox’s virtual currency, Robux, and through Adopt Me!‘s own virtual currency, simply called “Bucks”. Bucks can be earned by fulfilling the needs of a pet, such as eating and drinking, among other methods.


During early May of 2020, Adopt Me! held the Scoob! event, featuring characters from the Scooby-Doo franchise, which was a collaboration with Warner Brothers to promote the movie Scoob!. On May 24, the game received a “Pirate Update”, complete with a new house with a pirate style to complement the theme. Four days later, on May 28, Adopt Me! began the month-long Monkey Fairground event, in which six different types of monkey were available as pets. During mid-July, 2020, Adopt Me! added a kitsune to the roster of available pets.
