Tame a Pet
Read full descriptionHide full description
A virtual pet that actually answers — and now it has a farm. Pick a dog, cat, dragon or bee, name it, and care for it in real time. It gets hungry, sleepy and moody, it has its own personality — and it chats with you, remembering what you've been through together. TAME VILLAGE: YOUR OWN FARM A map that is yours, to build from nothing. • Five buildings: town hall, farm, sawmill, hen house and cattle pen — each produces and levels up • Five crops: wheat, carrot, tomato, pumpkin and strawberry • Six farm animals: chicken, duck, pig, cow, bull and sheep. You name them, they wander the yard and chat with each other • Fence the yard, open the gate, and see who wanders off • Buy new plots of land and watch the map grow • Four seasons that change how the whole village looks Production runs in real time, with the app closed. Come back and the harvest is waiting. CARE FOR IT AND WATCH IT GROW Egg to baby, baby to adult. Time passes for real: disappear and it misses you. Feed it, bathe it, play, put it to bed. EVERY PET IS DIFFERENT Seven personality traits — greedy, sleepy, studious, playful, vain, brave and fearful — change how it behaves, what it likes doing, even how it talks to you. SCHOOL AND CAREER Teach your pet and see what it graduates as: athlete, teacher, developer, artist, gardener or chef. Once it graduates, it works and brings coins home every day. DECORATE THE SCENE Bedroom, garden, beach, a loft with a mezzanine, a beach house and a mansion. Buy furniture and place it wherever you like — your pet interacts with what you put down: climbs into bed, sits on the couch, smells the flowers. MINIGAMES AND ACHIEVEMENTS Classic Snake and Treat Catch, both paying in coins. Tasks with real rewards, and achievements that last forever. REAL CONSEQUENCES Tantrums happen. You choose between teaching and spoiling, and that shapes who it becomes. Neglect it long enough and it leaves — but it leaves behind an egg that inherits its name and memories. No death, but consequences. NO ADS. EVER. Tame a Pet has no advertising and no tracking SDK. The whole game is playable for free. TAME PREMIUM (OPTIONAL SUBSCRIPTION) • 30 chat messages a day (the free plan has 10) • Exclusive items, scenes and customisation • 10 minigame plays a day (instead of 3) • LAB: multiple pets with cryo chambers • Invite friends and both earn coins And this is only the beginning: the village avenue leaves the map heading east, and what lies that way is still to come.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Petdometer at none against Tame a Pet's 1. Petdometer also leads on update cadence (every 4 days vs fortnightly). Tame a Pet's advantage is ads (none vs shown). On price, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
