Pokipet - Social Pet Game 4+

Annoying ads

I love this game me and my boyfriend have a pet together and it is so fun and cute. I love taking care of the pet but there are some things that have been annoying me. Firstly sometimes it tells me that “mega wants to watch an ad” and I can’t care for my pet at all until I watch a full 30 second ad. I would be happy watching an ad I can skip when I boot the game or something like that but having to watch the full ad just to care for my pet is annoying. Secondly the pet can just run away even if you are taking good care of it. To me it feels the time it takes for your pet to run away is inconsistent recently it seemed like I only left for maybe 5-6 hours and the cat ran away but sometimes I can go a full 8 hour day of work and come back and he is just fine. I love this game and so I am giving it a high rating despite these problems but they can be really annoying and I think might turn some people away.

love it! but...

let me start this review by saying i absolutely adore this game-- HOWEVER, i do think it can be predatory in terms of its' in-app purchases. the entire issue around pets getting sick is incredibly annoying, and seems to have spiked in frequency since i decided to first spend money on the game. me and my partner have two pets, and take care of them every day, but they get sick /constantly/. it seems as though if we leave for more than 3-4 hours, they always get sick. it's especially annoying when you don't have the funds to heal them from being sick. a cost of 300 coins is huge for that, and when they are sick, you can't even really do much. when a pet is sick, the game bars you from doing anything you usually can to earn coins. treats, water, exercise, food, etc. it's all unavailable. the only things left then is the minigames, waiting around for 25 free coins to be available every few hours, or buying coins with your real money. the toy minigame becomes impossible after about level 10, and again, the free 25 coin gift is only available every few hours. this means that its almost impossible to heal your pet for a good long while when you don't have the digital funds for it without using your real money to purchase coins. again, i love this game, but one of my pets has been sick for days and my partner and i havent been able to heal him, nor will we have the funds to get his care bars back up for awhile either. its annoying. please fix this.

Love the app but wish there were more options!

I love this app so much! It’s so much fun to be able to connect with my partner and take care of our little Pokipet! Best part is that you’re not bombarded with ads or constant glitches like other similar apps and can take the time to genuinely enjoy playing.

My only critique is that I wish there were more options available for customization. You are able to buy collars and hats as accessories, but there is limited selection as they cycle through the same ones every few days. Would love more options for collars and hats as well as possibly other clothing items (sweaters, boots, etc.). You’re also able to select a house and carpet for your pet, but there is only one option for each. I would love it if you were able to customize it to your own choice of color and/or pattern. There’s also only one game to play within the app which isn’t a huge issue for me but could be potentially boring for other users who want to use the game more actively rather than just to take care of their pet in the app.

Overall, I love this app; however, I feel like with the potential it has, it could be improved in many ways. I would definitely recommend it regardless of my few criticisms and would 100% have given it 5 stars if there was more variety and customizations.
