Notes[]
- Both iOS and Android versions initially lacked any baby animals for the six new Chinese New Year animals. When the player finished breeding, the basket that would usually have the baby appeared empty, before the game crashing. Once the player had reloaded the game, it could be seen that the baby animal didn't exist despite it saying 9/9 zebras, for example.
