Customer Reviews

Not as fun as version 4 or 4.5
The familitchi tamagotchi is unique cause you can raise up to 3 tamas in one tamagotchi and you can bond the relationship between the tamas and their parents. But unlike the version 4.5, the familitchi is lack of challenges because you can easily get all the food and all the items by entering the special code ([..]). If the tamas are unhappy, you just feed special snack like gingerbread church or show the pottery or cruise ship and instantly 3 hearts are filled. In version 4 or 4.5, you need to play with the tama to make them happy or feed the snack (but they will become too fat and gets sick easily). Familitchi doesn't show the tama's weight so I guess we can feed the tamas as much as we like without afraid of getting too fat. Without entering the special code, it will be difficult to afford all the foods and items cause they are very expensive compare to the earning that we'll get from playing the game. You can only $100 if you score perfectly and most of the items cost above [...]. The tamas also don't get to work like in version 4 or 4.5, only play.

Tomagotchi v5

Bought for my daughter. She loved it for about a week but it wore off pretty quickly. I still see her pick it up now and then...but over all it looses its appeal to fast.

Tamagotchi V5
The new Tamagotchi V5 is AWESOME! My kids love the Tamagotchi. They have been enjoying them since the V3. They are great! The V5 is a little different this time around because you get to raise a whole family instead of just one. So they have really enjoyed it!
