These are relatively basic games and it's hard to lose at them, but they're a mild diversion from the basic 'guess the direction' game that shipped with the original Tamagotchi back in the '90s.Įevee x Tamagotchi adds value by giving you the chance to evolve Eevee into one of its many forms. The first involves using the A and B buttons to collect five items of falling fruit, while the second has you repeating a musical sequence played by Eevee. The two mini-games are how you entertain Eevee and keep it happy, beyond simply feeding it and cleaning up its discarded hair. If you've ever owned a Tamagotchi in the past 20 years, all of this will be instantly familiar (apart from the lack of poop).
Once you start it up, it's very much a typical Tamagotchi you need to feed it (either on large meals or smaller snacks), play with it (there are two mini-games available, which we'll come to shortly), clean up the hairballs that it sheds (no poop here!) and even turn off the lights when it falls asleep.
It is accompanied by three buttons which are used to change settings and generally interact with the Eevee character. The front of the device features the monochrome LCD display, which hasn't really changed a great deal since 1997. It's slightly smaller than the original design (and is a little thicker, too) but is a similar size to the updated model Bandai released to mark the 20th birthday of its virtual pet phenomenon. Eevee x Tamagotchi is, as you might expect, very much like a standard Tamagotchi. Let's get the basics out of the way first. Now, several months after the Japanese launch, we finally have one of these beeping trinkets in our possession, so we thought you might like a quick impressions piece. A while back, we reported on the news that two of the world's most famous 'virtual pet' brands – Pokémon and Tamagotchi – were joining forces in the form of Eevee x Tamagotchi, a keyring-sized gadget which contains (you guessed it) your very own monochrome Eevee to look after.
