MarshyMellow 269 Posted November 23, 2017 (edited) Yay! TamaTown's back! Oh, and you know that Tamagotchi OC I made, Enogutchi? I'm gonna submit her if I get picked for the draw. Edited November 23, 2017 by MarshyMellow Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nazotchi25 468 Posted November 23, 2017 Was going to give it a test but it appears to be unavailable for my device. I thought a Pixel would be powerful enough to run it It only requires Android 4.2 and higher. I'm running Android 8.0. Maybe its simply still being rolled out Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rococo 0 Posted November 23, 2017 Oh the Hype!!! ! I was just telling my husband the other day how they should of just made an official app for tamagotchis! exciting!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Igel-Fullmetal 123 Posted November 25, 2017 I just hope it isn't a micro-transaction nightmare. I much rather pay a larger amount upfront than infinite smaller micro-transactions. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jhud 1,074 Posted November 28, 2017 Wouldn't call it a TamaTown since to my knowledge it doesn't really connect with any Tamagotchi version (I believe?), I sure hope they're not considering this the "color english tamagotchi" they teased us with a while back... Because no matter how good the app is, it won't replace an actual physical tamagotchi. I hope they're not getting lazy. I'm not a fan of it from what I've seen, it doesn't feel tamagotchi enough and while I do love things that are for kids (duh!), this one feels a bit too babyish for me.

Rorys_Tamas 125 Posted November 28, 2017 I have to agree it is crazy babyish and the sprites are more nightmare-ish than cute in my opinion. And the noises just add to it. I really dislike they noises they make it really only adds to the nightmares. And if it can poop all by itself all over the floor (in different rooms) when it is sleeping then why do I need to help it poop? And the whole idea of helping this thing poop is just creepy. I am not a fan it's not cute and does not make me feel like I'm taking care of a tamagotchi at all (they can poop on their own) and it sends out a lot of notifications I got two in the span of 5 seconds telling me someone wants to give me money (as if bribery would make me play). There are better virtual pet apps that are free and aren't filled with micro transactions (the cthulu one is a personal favourite). And this is not a colour tamagotchi replacement by any means. Not even close. The first tamagotchi virtual pet app and the angel app were a whole lot closer than this is. and that is my opinion on the app 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DoobyDoobytchi66 1 Posted December 8, 2017 I like the App I have it on my Docomo phone and probably will get it on my Iphone for the official iOS version. The ads are INTENSIVE and beginning to frustrate me, but you do not need to pay to keep it alive. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Coryn Asur 64 Posted December 28, 2017 The app is adorable judging by what I've seen, although probably not exactly my thing since I'm not the best at keeping track of mobile things (hint: my plants in Viridi, at least they don't need watering that often). I'm not so sure if my phone has enough memory left to download the app either, but at least I can always watch others play it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PokemonBecky 56 Posted January 1, 2018 I only played a little bit of it so far, but it seems good. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hoky 432 Posted January 11, 2018 Wish it'd hurry up and release in the US.It's good to hear that it's not as time-intensive as an actual tama. I have the Classic Tamagotchi app, and it's cool, but a straight 1 for 1 tama representation on a phone just isn't as appealing to me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lukie99 2 Posted January 13, 2018 It's not on the Play Store in the US? I'm in Canada, and it's already on the play store. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jhud 1,074 Posted January 13, 2018 (edited) Because it's being beta tested in Canada. Just like Animal Crossing Pocket Camp was in Australia. Edited January 13, 2018 by Jhud Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Vexia 24 Posted January 16, 2018 This app looks intensely cute, but I'm withholding my judgment until it becomes available worldwide, and I can try it myself. Some other app-related things I would be interested to see are: 1) another game in the Tamagotchi Corner Shop series, and 2) a western color-screen Tamagotchi with a companion app somewhat like the 4U.
