Catz 3 is a virtual pet program wherein the player raises a kitten to adulthood. The player can have as many petz as they want and can play with up to 3 at a time. There are 10 different breeds of catz to choose from and more that can be downloaded from online sources. Male and female catz can breed and have unique kittens, mixing their breeds. Many people online run their own breeders where you can download and trade unique kittens from other owners. There are multiple play areas to choose from including a beach, backyard, kitchen, and living room. There are also lots of toyz for your catz to play with and clothing if you like to dress up your animals. Some catz can be trained to do tricks, and their behavior is based on how well they're treated, and how much attention they get. If they are abused, they will run away from home. This program integrates smoothly with it's counterpart Dogz 3 allowing you to play with your dogz and catz at the same time. No weird inter-breeding though! Other features include family history trees, a simple webpage creator for showing off one's petz, and the option to make an "adoption kit," so that friends can try the program too.

In Dogz 3, you can select a dog, name it, adopt it, and then take it home to your desktop and watch it grow day by day. In this version, several new breeds have been added. You can also dress your mutts in a variety of clothing including hats, sweaters, and pants. This version also supports several different backgrounds including a kitchen, a backyard, a living room, and more. Take your pet to the different rooms and watch the fun. All of the rooms have some new features also, and you can light the fire in the living room and put items in the kitchen refrigerator. Designed to entertain the whole family, Dogz 3 can be run as a screensaver or behind your windows so your dogs can grow to adults faster than in previous versions. By purchasing Catz3, you can watch your dog and cat grow up and play together.

On the shelf you will also find the paint tin which gives you the option to paint your catz any colour you wish. If you own the first catz game it is also possible for them to play in the new environment of catz 2 so you don't have to give up caring for your catz from the first game.

Oddballz is a spin-off from the Catz and Dogz series, from P.F. Magic. This time, as the title states, the pets are wacky creatures, more alien-like than animal. Now they can make their eyes come out of their sockets and literally be scared to pieces, while retaining a comic look and feel (something impossible while dealing with Dogz or Catz). The mechanics are pretty much the same in every game of the series, and here the player also gets to pet them, teach them tricks, punish them or just play around. The Oddballz will respond to each and every move and they can even morph into something else, depending on what the player does. The tools the player can use are also very different from the ones in Dogz and Catz, and also have a wacky feel to them. There are tools like the Robo Pogo, the Gravitron, Seismo Ball, Transformer, Atomic Ball, and the delicious Liqui-Food, for feeding the pets. The company also made additional Oddballz available for download from their site, to add to the starting lot of seven.

Catz are the next in linze of Computer Petz. Catz live on your desktop and they don't mind sharing it with you. Your Catz enjoy being petted. You can play with them and watch them stalk the mouse across your documents. In screen-saver mode they enjoy taking their CatNapz.

Dogz are the first Petz to live on your computer, giving you the joys of owning a dog without needing a pooper scooper! Dogz live on your desktop where they can scamper across applications, play games like keep away, fetch and chase, or nap in the corner of your screen while you're working.

If you've ever thought of what it feels like to be the ball in a pinball machine, playing PaTaank might give you some idea. Instead of flapping the flippers, the player controls the ball, or in PaTaank, a UFO-shaped puck around the three different tables. The tables are named Surf Room, Luv Room, and Disaster Room and they are connected to each other via Nexus. Player can choose to play one room or in the MetaGame mode, all of them in sequence. Each room has an objective and in the MetaGame mode, player must reach that objective to advance into the next room via the Nexus. Like any pinball, there are targets, tunnels, blocks, and all sorts of flashing things that increase the score, light up letters, or grant bonus items. In addition to inertial control of the puck, player can apply thrust, which is limited, and activate magnetos, which are scattered around the room.

Ballz 3D is a two player 3D action fighting game for the Sega Mega Drive/Genesis, the Super NES (SNES) and the 3DO. It was developed by PF Magic and published by Accolade in 1994. The 3DO version was released as a director's cut in 1995. Ballz offered three difficulty levels over a total of 21 matches. Its distinguishing quality was that each of the characters were composed completely of balls, with a pseudo-3D look.
