Pet Simulator!

Pet Simulator is the original pet-collecting simulator on Roblox by BIG Games Pets (Preston), the 2018 launch that established the genre and won two Roblox Awards in its debut year. Now in permanent legacy status with over 1.15 billion visits and 3.26 million favorites, it remains a nostalgic destination for players who remember the beginning of the BIG Games franchise.

The loop that started it all is elegantly simple:

• 💰 Equip a pet from your collection to multiply coin output
• 💰 Break chests, piggy banks, and coins scattered across each area
• 💎 Spend coins at the egg shop to hatch new pets with higher stats
• 🗺️ Unlock new areas by reaching escalating coin wealth thresholds

Every pet exists in rarity tiers that determine its coin multiplier. Higher-rarity pets break objects faster, which funds better eggs, which produce rarer pets - the positive feedback loop that BIG Games refined across all their successors. The game introduced this formula to Roblox in April 2018 and everything that followed - Pet Simulator 2, Pet Simulator X, and Pet Simulator 99 - built on the foundation laid here.

The game has not received updates since May 2022 and is now a nostalgia destination - a snapshot of the genre before BIG Games refined it across three sequels. For active pet-collecting content with ongoing updates, the current BIG Games title in the franchise is PETS GO!
