It's so CUTE, SATISFING, ENTERTAING, and a lil ANNOYING with the beeps.
I love my little Tama and it hasn't even hatched yet! It is so cutely setup. I'm so satisfied by it! My mom remembers having these as a kid. It's a 5star thing! The gold part just ties it all together! Thanks for bring them back, so us people who WERNT born in the 90's can have a chance to explore it! Edit: Ive seen a few people saying that it dies after the 3rd day. If that happens DON'T FEED IT THE SNACK!! And the case/color (if you didn't receive what you want) it's not the fault in the brand/toy, it's a small fault between a glitch and your computer/tablet/phone/labtop. It has absolutely nothing to do with the quilty! After a few days of playing with the toy, it was REALLY fun because I knew what to do. I also recommend that you reset after your have your egg(for the FIRST time).

So cute!
I love this shell. The buttons are kind of hard to press but it’s not a big deal. It’s also super loud! But you can easily turn the sound on and off. Smooth graphics, no lag. Feels sturdy and not like it’s going to break if you squeeze it a little too hard. Can’t wait to see my little Tama grow up! This is my first classic Tama since I was a kid. I’ve only had color Tamas as an adult so far, so it’s definitely an adjustment.

Hmmm…
Was fun for a little! But over time gets loud and annoying when needs to be fed. Randomly in the night the tomagotchi starts crying its annoying.

Great little starter for kids
Tomagachi’s have around a long time, that is a plus because my kids loved it when they were small. Now, my granddaughter is having a great time with it. Great starter toy unt

Gets boring easily but kinda cute
It's super loud and there's no way to lower the volume (but there is a way to turn it off). It does get a bit boring and it takes really long for your egg thing to grow up. I guess it's super giftable though so if you want to entertain someone for a short amount of time I would recommend it. Otherwise, the product itself is good in condition.

So I grew up in the craze of Tamagotchi and we didn't exactly have money and my mother couldn't buy me one. So randomly last month or so I decided to get one years later and geez do I enjoy this. You can mute the sound which is nice I can have it in class and what not without disturbing everyone and it's exactly what I imagined it would be having one. It works great and I remember they pretty much looked exactly the same minus the colors but I mean there was so many different colors back then.

They really are a blast from the past. Some people have been reporting that these are harder to take care of than the true originals from the 90s, and I've sort of seen that problem too, but it's still playable and I've been able to grow my Tamagotchi character into an adult several times. They're nostalgic and it's worth it for that alone!

I can’t stop hearing “grow up” from my family and friends but I don’t care LOL. Yes I’m 34 and needed a bit of nostalgia. 90s kids were simply the best haha. Everything is working fine. My first one died because at 34 I’m busier than I was at 11, but I forgot about the pause feature. No issues at all with it, it’s as I remember it and now I’ve filled my nostalgia need.

Loved that we got it earlier than expected. But got the wrong design. Supposed to be with the hearts but got blue clouds version.
