    The graphic background is not comfortable to the eye. Better to put backlight so you can use it in the dark area.

    Wanted to give my kids a taste of the Tamagotchi crazy we went through as kids and they absolutely love it. They take turns taking care of their Tamagotchi pal once they get home from school and I watch it during the day. Lol

    It is amazing how an old toy can come back to life! It moved me back to my childhood and now with my son we enjoy playing with it

    Cool toy but it gets annoying fast. I plan to give it any next school year to some lucky student.
