Play Hamster Club 2 (Japan) Online

Hamster Club 2 is a Japan-only Game Boy Color title from 2000, developed by KID and published by MTO. It arrived late in the handheld's life, offering a quirky, lighthearted alternative to the more action-heavy or puzzle-focused games common on the platform.

You choose and raise a hamster, preparing it for races through a series of odd training mini-games, like rolling on a giant ball or navigating a simple maze. The main goal is to win races against other AI-controlled hamsters, with success depending on how well you've trained your pet in speed, stamina, and technique. The races themselves are unpredictable and often messy, with hamsters bumping into each other and frequently tumbling off-course. It’s a silly, low-stakes experience that feels genuinely cheerful, especially when played with a friend using the link cable.
