Petfolio will delight children and their parents with its simple-yet-fun introduction to the pets and animals they love.

Petfolio is a child's first pet game that is adorably fun. “Petfolio is unique in quality design, graphics and components: After its use, the puzzle characters could be framed and hung on the kid's wall,” a representative from Weskel Games told TDmonthly. Launch date: October 2006.
