Amazon.com Review

Make way for Babyz! Adopt an adorable virtual kid in this amazing, playful 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 fifteen 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. 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

4.0 out of 5 stars How to make Babyz work on XP, November 16, 2005

I run this game on XP, however, you MUST turn off the sounds for it as that is what causes the game to crash.

Here is a site with a full how-to on this:

This is an older game, but it is much better when you get into the 'third-party' downloads. (You can obtain new clothing, babyz, toyz, food and more on the internet.)

Even without the sounds, it is still a rather cute game...if you like taking care of virtual infants.

(...)Once there, look to the left side of your screen and you will see a bar called "Web Site Navigation". Go to "Babyz Tips and Tricks". That will bring you to a list of things.Go to How to Run Babyz in Windows XP. Then all you have to do is download a .reg file which only takes a few seconds. Then just follow the insructions and your game will run on Windows XP.
