### 5/5 — Overall review

*2026-07-17*

I’ve been looking for an interesting genetics game that I can play just about anymore vs browser games like Lioden. This one achieves exactly that! 

Pros:
-You can create your own projects 
-Engaging, overall positive community 
-Research for mutations with new mutations being added regularly 
-They also appear to be considering new species to add 

Con:
-There is technically a paywall. HOWEVER, there is a way around having to spend money on the game.

The game itself allows other players to send in-game paid for currency to others or has what they call a paid token. Because of the friendly community, users who purchase these can send them to unpaid players, this allows free to play (ftp) players to become paid players permanently. There are jobs in the game you can do for users that are offering up these methods to become paid or occasionally you can find giveaways for them. 

Overall? 
The game play is engaging if you love playing around with genetics. It can take time to get used to, but there are guides and players that offer to help others learn the game. Breeding can be done for specific colours, mutations, or both. Definitely a permanent game in my opinion!

**Developer response:** Thank you for this incredibly detailed and balanced review! 😊 You perfectly captured both the game and the community spirit — especially the way paid players support free players. Lioden players are very welcome here! See you in the game!

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2026-07-06*

Honestly I haven’t been addicted to a game like this in a long time and I love it. It would be cool if it was possible to add a mass naming system like if you have tags on some pets you could mass name them. But honestly I love the game!

**Developer response:** Thank you for the review and don't hesitate to send suggestions to suggestions@ovipets.com! Glad you're hooked! 😊

### 5/5 — Love this game!

*2026-07-06*

I’ve been a member since 2014, and I have to say I’m incredibly impressed with the new app! It has made the game much more enjoyable and has really enhanced the overall gameplay experience.

The breeding system is so much easier to use, and the improved search features are fantastic—they save so much time and make finding what you’re looking for a breeze.

My only wish is that the hatchery was unlimited, like it is on the web version. Because of that, I still find myself switching back and forth between the app and the website. If the hatchery were expanded, the app would be nearly perfect for me.

Overall, I’m very pleased with the direction the game has taken and can’t wait to see what comes next. I highly recommend this game to anyone looking for a fun, engaging pet-breeding experience with an amazing community!

**Developer response:** Thank you so much for this wonderful review and for being with us since 2014! 😊

### 5/5 — Fix please

*2026-07-02*

I love this game I just recently discovered it and I can’t get enough of it. The only thing is of recently it’s been messing up or disconnecting me a lot. I would appreciate it if it’s looked into.

**Developer response:** Thank you! 😊 Disconnects are usually related to connection stability — try switching between WiFi and mobile data to see if that helps. Glad you're loving the game!

### 1/5 — Still no tutorial..

*2026-06-11, version 1.13.0*

I remember playing this a while ago on pc. I couldn’t get into it as the ui was so confusing plus there not being a tutorial is wack! How are you supposed to get new players when you won’t even do a tutorial. Picking this up again on the phone in hoping there was a tutorial just to find out there isn’t was a massive let down.. even a paragraph of what to do would have been handful but NOTHIN. I will not be wasting my time on the game a third time!

### 1/5 — developer deletes reviews

*2026-06-10*

reposting since my original review was mysteriously deleted, so weird!

this game is a neopets ripoff that teaches you next to nothing. enjoy wandering around the application not knowing how to do a single thing. it took days to figure basic functions out and apparently it’s normal for things like research to take….three days or more? I’ve lost interest and forgotten about this app before the timer is even done. the fact people PAY for this blows my mind.

**Developer response:** Sorry for the frustrating experience! We don't have the ability to delete reviews. The research and hatching timers are intentional to balance progression — OviPets is a long term game rather than something you complete quickly. Check out our Help section or ask in community chat to get the most out of it. 😊

### 3/5 — Ui ux are annoying

*2026-06-09, version 1.12.6*

PLEASE hire an experienced UI/UX designer who knows what he’s doing 🙏🏻 current interface is BAAD and very frustrating to navigate. I will stay on browser mobile version

### 5/5 — Long time player please read!

*2026-06-07, version 1.12.6*

Hey! This game has incredible depth once you get the hang of it. For anyone saying you NEED to spend money on the app to play, they’re wrong. The paid features are there to help prevent “account abuse” while frustrating at first, it’s also quite necessary as you can only have one account. Some people have played years without a paid membership and have just utilized the paid community’s (real people) kindness and willingness to help where possible. The community is amazing and so helpful, you can ask a question and it’s usually answered within 15 minutes. I read some other reviews and they say that you need to have a membership in order to gain paid access, this is wrong too. ANY one time purchase grants you paid status for life. If you wish to continue supporting the Ovi team, you can continue with your purchases, but you do not need to as there are ways to earn currency in game. What some people are mistaking as a pay to play is Ovi+ this IS a membership but you do not need this in order to play. Ovi+ is “quality of life” and keeps your pets fed, cuts down on hatching times, research times, etc. long time players usually have Ovi+. In any case if you have a question about anything, ask it on one of the community posts any someone will answer ASAP, there are no “dumb” questions. Please ask!

### 4/5 — Amazing community

*2026-06-05*

Like the title says, the community is amazing. The pets are fun to breed. It’s not something that forces you to pay real money to have fun or participate. 

However, I’d love to see two slight changes to the app. 

1. In the friends section on browser, there’s a friend requests section. I’d like to see that in app as well. It took a week to figure out how to accept them in app (go to their profile and click the settings wheel at the bottom)

2. In the pets search feature, it’d be amazing to be able to set a filter to exclude or specifically search for pets in a project. (The amount of Slime Halation is honestly obscene in searching adoptable pets.)

**Developer response:** Thank you for the detailed feedback! 😊 The friend request visibility and pet search filter are both great suggestions — we'll keep them in mind.

### 1/5 — Ugly

*2026-06-05, version 1.12.6*

Ugly designs it would be better pixelated
