Apps for Virtual Pets
Anyone who was a child or teenager in the mid-1990s probably had or heard of Tamagotchi. The virtual pet in the form of a keychain became a craze and still attracts crowds today. And with the modernization of smartphones, it is very easy to find similar games to Tamagotchi for Android or Apple phones.
Here are some examples:
Cthulhu Virtual Pet
Available for Android and IOS, this is one of the favorite games when it comes to Tamagotchi. In Cthulhu Virtual Pet, you can create your pet in the “God of Chaos” version based on the work of H.P. Lovecraft, as the options are small tentacled monsters that want to destroy cities and terrorize people’s lives to be happy. The app is free and worth trying!
My Tamagotchi Forever
The more modern version from Bandai Namco, the creator of Tamagotchi, has a pixelated design that resembles its older sibling. In this app, your virtual pet will need care for health and food, as well as rest and fun. You can customize your pet to explore the city of Tamatown in style. My Tamagotchi Forever is also free, with versions for IOS and Android.
Neko Atsume
Virtual app for cat lovers. Neko Atsume is free, and its goal is to distribute toys, furniture, and cardboard boxes in your virtual house or yard so that different cats come to interact when they visit you. There are more than 40 different types of cats (including some very rare ones) that can appear if you have the right item to attract them.
Dogotchi
Now it’s time for dog lovers. Dogotchi has cute, pixelated puppies to maintain the 90s look. In this gameplay, you will feed, clean, and take care of their health.
