Top critical reviews

The most up-voted negative English reviews in our sample, quoted as written.

“A very bad game at being a pet simulator, your pets need to be taken care every 10 minutes, not fast enough for active play, not slow enough for passive. Also, they lack any interesting activities. If you play the first pet, then you…”

“Not really a game... you watch, you can only click like 4 buttons, and you wait... there is no real progress, its always the same, even a few of the achievements would take quite some time... and its short. 2/10. Not recommended!”
