Eggbits

Read full description

Thirty years of gaming in one little shell. Eggbits is a retro virtual pet game. Your creature begins as black pixels on an LCD screen and grows through four gaming eras: LCD, a four-green handheld, 8-bit and 16-bit. Each era has its own colors, sounds and mini-game. CARE, PLAY AND GROW Feed, treat, clean and care for your creatures using touch controls or the A, B and C buttons. Their needs change in real time, even while the app is closed. Optional local notifications remind you when they need attention. Your care shapes their evolution: discover their forms in the Chronodex. TEN SPECIES, ONE FAMILY Adopt Original, Raccoon, Glouma, Brindo, Renardeau, Hibouille, Nuagin, Mousso, Loutrine or Axolo. Adults can lay an egg and continue their family line. Train speed, jumping, strength and stamina, then enter the daily Stadium Grand Prix. A LITTLE DAILY RITUAL Play four era-inspired mini-games, beat your records and earn joy for your creatures. Keep your care streak going and reach milestones at 7, 30, 100 and 365 days. YOUR WAY TO PLAY Choose Cozy mode with no death, or Retro mode. Choose from three menu themes: Night, Neon and Sun. Three care-screen presentations and collapsible sections in Family, Boarding and Stadium let you make the game your own. Keep your creatures close with the iPhone widget and companion Apple Watch app. PAUSE THEIR TIME, KEEP THEIR STORY Board a creature to pause its needs and aging, then bring it back when a slot is free. Family brings the family tree and Chronodex together, with portraits preserving your companions’ final forms. Rare eggs may also hatch shiny creatures.

About

Yumi

Features
Read full description

Meet Yumi, a small round creature with big eyes, a bigger heart and a cozy new house. Yumi has been waiting for someone to share it with, and that someone is you. Yumi is a virtual pet for people who like their games calm. Give your friend a name and a color, then settle into a rhythm that suits you: a snack in the kitchen, a bath that turns into a splash fight, a round of bubbles before bed. Play for two minutes or two hours. Nothing bad happens when you are away for a while. Yumi simply has a nap and is thrilled to see you when you come back. A DAY WITH YUMI Your friend has four simple needs: food, energy, cleanliness and happiness. Each room in the house takes care of one of them. Serve a meal in the kitchen and watch the plate empty. Run a bath, scrub, rinse and brush until the fur fluffs up. Open the playroom when it is time for fun, and tuck Yumi into bed when the energy runs low. Looking after your friend earns coins and rewards along the way, and a well-cared-for Yumi is a very happy one. EIGHT GAMES, HUNDREDS OF LEVELS The playroom is where afternoons disappear. Bubbles is a bubble shooter with 24 worlds of puzzles and a boss waiting at the end of each one. Link is a match-3 game of the same size, where every cleared board pays out in coins. Around them sit six quick minigames: hop across clouds, catch falling crystals, ride a cart down a bumpy hill and more. Every level you finish brings coins for the store, so playtime and dress-up feed each other. A LOOK THAT IS ALL YOURS Yumi comes in dozens of forms, from a jellyfish to a crab to a moth, and each one can wear any color you like. The style room is full of hats, glasses, scarves, held toys, ears and tails to mix and match. Pick a house theme to go with the look, from a sunlit pastel lounge to a room with a sea view. Sweet, silly or a bit of both, your Yumi will look like no one else's. YUMI ON YOUR WRIST Yumi comes with an Apple Watch app. Check your friend's four stats at a glance, add Yumi to your watch face and carry a bit of company through the day. MADE TO FIT YOUR LIFE • Yumi works without an internet connection. • Your progress is saved on your device. Cloud saving is optional. • You can get a reminder when Yumi is hungry. Reminders stay off until you turn them on. • Yumi might show ads between levels. A one-time Ad-free purchase removes them. • Play in 16 languages. Everything in Yumi can be enjoyed without buying anything. Coins come from playing, caring and daily visits, and purchases only add to the fun. Come home. Yumi is waiting.
