Hamsterz is a game for the Nintendo DS, and is simply about looking after virtual hamsters. Apparently you need to look atfer your hamster so it can turn the cage into a hamster city. Unlike the more modern version, Hamsterz 2, your hamsters will not suffer from illnesses or have pups, but you can win prizes in minigames and let your hamster wonder around your bedroom (under your supervision, of course).
You can also use DS Download Play and you and your friend can meet each other in a room. You can give each other presents as well and stroke their hamsters.
When you but new hamsters or are swapping your hamster for another of yours, you will be greeted by a girl named 'Hammy'. She looks part hamster and will look after six of your hamsters, although you always need to have one in the cage.

If you have the menu up a button appears at the bottom of the touch screen and you can play a randomly selected minigame to win accessories such as clothing, food, toys and alternative cages.
