- Boing Boing Animals is a new Tamagotchi-like game now available on iOS
- Hatch slime eggs and raise unique pets by feeding and caring for them.
- But don't do it at the expense of real-life pets.
If there’s one thing that can unite multiple generations of kids from the late 90s to the late 2000s, it’s Tamagotchis. Who hasn’t had the experience of having, and then neglecting, one of these adorable digital pets? But if you’re still tormented by the thought of letting them starve, don’t worry, because you can redeem yourself with a new Tamagotchis-like mobile game that just hit stores, Boing Boing Animals!
Available now on iOS, Boing Boing Animals does exactly what you’d expect. You hatch Slime Eggs, growing a variety of unique animals that you then feed and care for. There are over 70 different types of animals that you can discover as they grow, customizing your UI with stickers and various backgrounds.
Aimed at gamers looking for an offline experience, Boing Boing Animals promises a decent amount of features for a game of its size. You can expect to find yourself spending a lot of time caring for these pixel collections, though hopefully not at the expense of real-life pets.
Beep, beepWhile Boing Boing Animals has a few quirks (for example, bragging about cleaning up your pet’s “poop”), it seems to be a fairly straightforward adaptation of the digital pet phenomenon to mobile. If you’re looking for a game that isn’t as complex as something like Pokemon Go, but still has plenty of opportunities to nurture your digital pet, then perhaps Boing Boing Animals is the right choice for you.
