Great! Now if only it weren’t a mobile game.
I want this to be something it’s not so I’m a bit biased but I still enjoy it for what it is. There’s a level of storytelling here that I haven’t seen from neopets since the old (now inaccessible) plot comics. It’s something I’ve sorely missed and reminds me of the old Darkest Faerie game for ps2. I so badly want this kind of storytelling and that kind of wonder and adventure in a new console game and it deeply saddens me that this is what we got. That said, it’s good for what it is. I’m excited to see more of the story revealed and it’s exactly the kind of thing I’ve been looking for to keep my hands busy when I don’t have the energy for anything else. I’m not a huge fan of mobile games but I’m still content with this even if I do perceive it as having a lack of ambition or love there was definitely some care put into this game. Some care but not a lot.
Edit: After losing my save data and no new updates or content for 10 months I’ve updated my rating to reflect this particular brand of disrespect to the consumer. It’s still a good time waster and something to keep your hands busy but it’s not worth spending money on if you can help it.

Don’t get attached
I used to play this game every day but took a break when I hit a wall where I really needed to buy boosters to proceed. I was somewhere in the 400s in terms of levels beaten iirc, but I logged in again today and all of that progress was just gone. I spent real money on this generic game that’s on autopilot and my progress is just gone. Incredibly disheartening, and I don’t think I’ll ever play it again as a result.
It’s been about 8 months since the last patch, and I doubt they’re ever going to touch this game again. It’s a fine time waster but not worth it if you’re just going to lose everything.

Frustrating.
This is just a mediocre match-3 style game, but I enjoyed playing because I love the Neopets brand. I managed to beat all the levels at the time and then stoped playing for about 2-3 months. I decided to check it out again and see if there was any new content. Unfortunately, despite having linked my Apple ID, all of my data was gone and the game started over from the very beginning. Needless to say, I’m very frustrated by this… especially since I’ve spent real money on micro transactions. Now all that time & money is completely wasted. I’ve played games, like Candy Crush and Gardenscapes, that have been though multiple devices and years without being opened, but still retain all my save data (without having to link my accounts to cloud save!).
TL;DR: the game is fine. Play it if you like Neopets & match 3 games, but DO NOT get too invested. There’s a good chance your save data will disappear, even if you link an account and use a cloud save.

Solid puzzle game. Should be on Website or PC in general.
Solid game similar to GardenScapes, etc. would also like to see this on the actually NeoPets website. NeoPets should dabble into mobile while also remaining true to their older PC audience. This is why I’m worried about the new mobile world next year. There should be a PC port for it.
Lost Data??
EDIT— Fixed! For anyone in the same boat as me, I selected Guest and it loaded the preexisting data for me, which I can then bind to Apple/Facebook/Etc :D
I initially joined during the official launch, complete with a Gleam giveaway, and I had a pretty fun time playing it up until life got busy. I wanted to try and hop back on again, only instead of it auto-logging me in, I guess I had to pick a login option, and I couldn’t recall if I logged into Apple, was considered to have a guest account, or if an account wipe happened while I was gone, so I’m a little concerned if I have to start over entirely :(
