### 5/5 — amazing but…

*2026-08-29, version 1.8.3*

pls make it a one time purchase instead of a subscription i would rather pay 20 bucks for lifetime

### 5/5 — It’s a great little game!

*2026-08-04, version 1.8.3*

This is so cute! You have a cute little pet on your Home Screen and you can care for it just like a Tamagotchi! You can also have a transparent background for the widget! It’s not that accurate, but still! A lot of the stuff is behind a pay wall, which I understand because it looks like a small company. But there is still a lot of good things without it! With the subscription you can name your pets and get 2 and have a variety of pets. Without it, you have a cat named Kimi and a dog named Pablo, and they added an update with a Bear and I honestly forgot his name… but please don’t get mad because of the subscription it’s a small company and they just want some sort of profit!

### 4/5 — cheap paywall

*2026-07-31, version 1.8.3*

very cute and wonderful concept, it's a bit glitchy in some areas but all around a worthwhile download! there's a paywall situation that i believe could be mitigated with a high free-to-play coin toll (similar to animal crossing before their app went offline), as it stands there are too few free options. but seasonal integrations could also balance this aspect, (ex: fulfill certain tasks w pet during certain times of the year with a short specific time period). this is genuinely such a good idea and highly worth pursuing!

### 4/5 — Amazing

*2026-07-29, version 1.8.3*

I was really confused because I think it’s only usable when you have premium, but it was still amazing

### 5/5 — Ariz

*2026-07-27, version 1.8.3*

😀

### 4/5 — Amazing!✨🤩

*2026-07-19, version 1.8.3*

This app is so cute and adorable!I love all the features and how it’s like a tamagotchi!One thing tho I wish some of the club mochi features were free.So minus one star but otherwise super cute! 🙃❤️

### 5/5 — SO UNDERRATED

*2026-07-16, version 1.8.3*

Can you PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE add some more stuff? Idea: a hello kitty pet for everyone, and maybe a cute background? TYSM!!

### 5/5 — Love it

*2026-07-11, version 1.8.3*

I’ve stopped watching the footy for this

### 5/5 — Soo cute

*2026-07-03, version 1.8.3*

This game is very fun for people with a lot of stress and wanting a pet it’s basically a tamagotchi on your device

### 5/5 — It's a great 'online pet' but...

*2026-06-27, version 1.8.3*

I honestly love this game, but I don't exactly know how to go to the snack mart thing. I don't want my pet to die or whatever because of starvation, so can the game owner please help me with this? Thank you! I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS GAME THOUGH!!!
