Kung Fu Panda World was a 2010 browser game. The game was themed after the Kung Fu Panda franchise of DreamWorks Animation, where players could move their character around a pre-rendered 2D world and participate in a variety of mini-games. Two and a half years in the making, [1] the game was directed principally towards children. [2] [3] [4] On July 15, 2012, the game was discontinued and removed, and the website now redirects to the main Kung Fu Panda website.[ citation needed ]

Players had to watch adverts to play or could purchase a subscription service for additional content. [5] [6] [4]

The player creates their own character and chooses a fighting style, they then could play a variety of mini-games to unlock new items and skills used to level up, earn colored sashes and additional games. [2] [3]

Players voted on which games and activities were to be added into the game. [6]

Parents were encouraged to also play and earn items for their children. [4]
