Love the idea. Brings my child hood back. Unfortunately I can't keep the app open and the notifications do not work for me. Other than that the app is great

I'm ngl this game reminds me of my tamagotchi angel that I randomely found in my house but this is a little different plus it a dog my tamagotchi angel is fun and all but it malfunctions I know why it malfunctions its litterally older than me it say 1997 on the back I wonder how long the tamagotchi angel device will live. I brought it to life in 2024 so will it permantly die in 2026? Mom did tell me devices don't live forever they die just like us but why do notifications don't work ??? :(

This scratches the retro game itch but there's too many ads. I'd actually pay a couple bucks for an ad free version but there isn't an option for that

Got that itch to play with a virtual pet again. I thought it was awesome that the new tamagotchis are rechargeable, until I saw that they were $60! I found this app and found it was the same simplicity as the original games. The ads were kinda annoying, so I decided spending $3.00 was much cheaper than buying the new tamagotchis, so I bought the ads free version. I do not regret that I did.

too many ads, if it had less ads, I would say "4 STARS". I like the game, but it's annoying that everytime you try to play with your dog, an ad pops up, and if you are trying to learn the new game and fail immediately, you have to watch another ad just to try again. please if you must have the ads there, make it so you have to watch the ad to start the first game, till you leave the game section, to another section like food or hygiene. the ads can be for the games but please not as many.

I love this game, yes there is an ad whenever you enter/exit mini games, but it's worth it, the characters are cute & the app design is amazing, it's entertaining & fun, whilynot taking hours to play

It's a cute, fun, and not too troublesome or time-consuming game, yet still it's a shame that notifications aren't working at all... A "real life" dog would make you know when it wants *something*, you know... :) Moreover, it's kinda strange to me that I have to put the dog to sleep manually, and it can't go to sleep on its own. Apart from that, I think it's a nice game.

wonderful little game. I wish there were animations for the pet and they showed emotion or a few animations. I love that's it's simple otherwise, not bright colors and cartoon. love the destroy game.

I guess I guess
Its been good so far but i can't find anywhere if it can die, and if it can what causes it to die? (So i can avoid it ofc) also, ive had it sleeping for 40 minutes and its energy won't go up and all of its needs are going down, is my tomadachi going to die because of this (hopefully) glitch???

Great game! I just don't understand how to get my pets energy up, I turn the light off and it shows the dog is sleeping but the bar doesn't seem to go up :(
