Gardenia Park - Lost Media I found

[HipKikkaHop]

This is truly one of the most precious memory I have 🫶🏼 I cannot express enough how much I miss the Gardenia Park and I really really hope that one day it will come back 🩷 Now that the forum is back, and exactly how I remember it from back in the days, I know there is hope for anything, even for the Gardenia Park!
I was really upset when they shut the park down and opened Winx adventure instead.. WA was full of bugs, at least in my computer, and I've never been able to actually play - unlike with Gardenia Park, where I could spend hours 🥰 I loved buying balloons and ice creams, watching the Winx magic spells and chatting (like sort of DMs) with other people - this was before I discovered the forum section, which then became my obsession
I must admit that I was so obsessed with the forum, that I kinda abandoned the Gardenia Park before they shut it down - now I regret it so much

Does anybody remember the "room" section in the Gardenia Park? I'm sure you could decorate your own room, I don't think you could actually visit other rooms but it was still fun!

Who knows? Maybe one day we'll find many files and the it would come through. That would take many miracles to happen but hey,a fairy can dream.

I really really really resonate with your experience, I think I followed the same path
Despite being a simpler game, GP was way more welcoming than WA. Does anyone know why they shut GP down in the first place? Also, I remember it was so sudden!

This is only a theory but maybe the game itself was too heavy for the site? I remember it being very slow -
but again, WA was super slow and buggy as well, so I don''t know!
Maybe at some point less and less people played GP and went to the forum instead, which I remember was sooo crowded, and they thought we didn't really care about the game anymore..

I heard stories of other people being unable to play GP or it being slower than a turtle. I believe someone said that at times it took TWO HOURS for Gardenia Park to simply load. Was it that bad?
