There are lots of things for your pet to do and many places to explore. When you advance further in the game it gives you an upgrade to 1 additional try.For the Wishing Well; there are several objects that scroll within 3 boxes. In the beginning, the objects scroll quite rapidly. You get three tries to match up all 12 spaces, and sometimes they stick in objects with the same colour, which increases the difficulty.
Really great to take with you when you travel to Grandma's or to a hotel, just plug and play. There are dozens of pets to "talk" to and many shops at which to buy various toys, food, vitamins, home decor, and such.All in all, this is a well rounded game for little kids. I, personally, found it interesting that these mini games start out difficult and get easier.Kids can spend hours completing quests for various animals throughout the game, earning prizes and money as they go along. My kids really enjoy it. It is a very basic game, compared to what is on the market these days, but we still have lots of fun with it. They include a memory matching game (16 objects), and hand eye coordination to match up some scrolling objects.With the memory matching game, it starts out difficult. You have to try to stop 3 of the same object (one in each box) in order to win that object and some money.
They get to earn money and prizes, manage their money, buy fun stuff, decorate their pet's home, explore and complete tasks (some are even timed), play games, learn new tricks for their pet, and keep their pet healthy and happy. We have had this for nearly 4 years and got another one last year. The mini games are lots of fun for little ones. As you progress through the game as a whole, the objects will scroll more slowly.
my neighbor owns it, and every weekend i find myself calling and asking for her to loan it to me. And the price ($10.95) is half as much as target ($20.00). This gigapet game is very fun. it has a few educational values, but not many, except for learning to care for the handheld pet (included) you can have it for a year and not go everywhere, the world is that big.
When I got it I was so thrilled and excited, and was like that for about a month. Currently I am going to buy a Nintendo DS lite instead.
I think it would be more fun for real little kids. It's like this, but way better (for DS).
I would recommend Animal Crossing. BLUCK.
Hello, I bought this toy thinking it would be the greatest thing ever. But after a while, it gets very repititive and boring being able to only play one type of game.
I am not saying I hate this game, just after a while you don't even want to touch it.
to play my game almost every day. I did so, and was surprised to find that my once-strictly-2D Puffball was now a noise-making, color-changing ball of fur that followed my pet around wherever I went. Honestly, I wouldn't have been caught dead playing a game with the word, "explorer" in the title. I had initially plugged my Puffball Gigapets Handheld into the dock and didn't realize that it would not give me the option to "ZAP" it into the game unless I plugged it back into the dock when I was already playing. There are numerous goals and new openings to go through depending on how many quests you complete (so that there won't be another Animal Crossing disaster), and once you have explored all of the land there is to explore, just hold out and there will be aliens that can change your color. Now at thirteen years of age, I am still playing this game on a small, old TV with USB docks that doesn't get channels or cannot play movies otherwise, and play a little old-school by using this T.V. A few months later, though, when I was cleaning out my room and giving various things collecting dust to Good Will, I came across this game, and decided to give it a try before totally giving up on it. I then proceeded to pick out my pet, and noticing that there wasn't a dog in the variation of colors that I desired, I turned the game off and reset the game, pleased greatly that when I tried again, my dream dog was there.
I also was enabled to visit an Island that without my Minipet, wouldn't have otherwise gotten to do so. (that has surprisingly-great picture and sound). At first, when I saw this dock in my Christmas stocking to go along with my Giga Pets hand-held, I put a fake, cheesy grin on my face and humored my parents by pretending to like it. I gathered up the four AA batteries required, took the cover off of the bottom with a screwdriver and plugged the yellow and white docks into the matching colored outlets on my TV. In conclusion, this toy may look like a Fisher Price twinky toy from the outside, but if you wait to play it, you'll notice that it is fun for all ages.
Also, it's fun collecting "halos" and "pitchforks" to create you personality. The "quests" are very fun, they are simple, yet entertaining. The controllers work great and are easy to work. I am 12 (almost 13). I would never get rid of this game. I really like it.
The menu is simple to move around, YOU SHOULD SO BUY THIS. I just bought the Giga Pet Explorer today. It hooks up very easily, and I would SO recommend it to any kid who likes interactive virtual pets. I like to decorate my house, too.
