Welcome to Muppet Wiki!
MuppetWorld.com was an official Muppets site run as an offshoot of Muppets.com under The Jim Henson Company's ownership. The website, as it was originally implemented, is now defunct and redirects to the current Muppets website, muppets.go.com).
The website, which required the Macromedia Flash plug-in to view, was designed by a company called Dream Theater, and many of the activities themselves were designed by a company called Empire Visualization.
Columbia Tri-Star Home Video's The Very Best of the Muppet Show: Volume 2 included access to the MuppetWorld website.
Muppetworld.com had a variety of Flash-based activities, including:
- A series of MuppeToons, 3D-polygon representations of Muppets involved in computer & Internet-based sketches.
- Pepe's Shopping Carnival was a merchandise area.
- An interactive story based upon the movie Muppets from Space.
- Activities involving Animal which included controlling the muppet to create sounds & songs.
- An activity titled Whot's Cooking? that featured The Swedish Chef.
