    It’s like those virtual pet when it first came out. It is kind of hard to use and not that much interaction.

    The screen is not very bright and no way to brighten it more. These things are a hassle unless you keep up with them constantly. They will wake you up during the night if they get hungry. You can turn them down, but if you forget then they die and you have to reset. Just not the fun we thought they would be

    The image on the device was very low, my daughter kept squinting her eyes every time she used it. I also noticed the plastic is way to tall to the point it covers the small images on the edge of the screen.

    Why did they want these? Why did I buy them? Do me a favor. Use imagination to picture one of these things sitting next to your child’s 9.5” iPad. Yeah

    Very minimal things can be done. It is boring and is not the same as the ones I have played with as a kid
