    I've been playing it a fair bit, since I like Farmville type games.

    I've been playing it also, a little buggy but it's ok for it's developing stage i guess, i think it is ok, we should get some prices on our neo accounts and it should give us the sense of success now and then and its all it needs, i mean, it is currently better thought that Pok�mon Cafe Mix (or any mobile only pok�mon game but Go)...

    Art is cool but i think it could be better, i love that it seems that in the future we'll get the chance to paint our pets for a more unique feeling, i hope they don't put an impossible economy there; kinda have some hype for it hahahha

    I feel like Neopets is always years behind with the apps they put out. Ghoul Catchers was made years after the first match-3 games. Legends and Letters was made years after RPG/Fighthing game and they tried to make it stand out by adding words which really didn't make any sense and then Island Builders which tops it off with a game type that's been done and overdone hundred of times.

    The only true 'app' I loved was Treasure Keepers. The design was amazing, the game was fun and original and truly in the spirit of Neopets.

    I'm pretty sure this is sure gonna slowly die down until they decide to make another app.

    Agreed, every idea they have seems to be one that would have been way more viable five or ten years ago. I basically have no expectation of quality or relevance when JS make these announcements anymore.

    Also, I know there are some folks who like this visual style, and hey, you are entitled to that opinion. But I think it looks uncanny as fuck, especially the Shoyru. It looks like they're bootleg figurines... Aside from the pets, I think it looks like it's trying to emulate some kind of look that isn't consistent with Neopets, but with some other, more recent franchise, but I can't put my finger on what it might be, other than maybe Animal Crossing in some parts.

    it's boring. but i think most mobile-only games are boring. so idk. it's in development so i'm not gonna comment on the glitches because that's kinda the point of playing an in-development game.

    i'd rather neopets invest in the resources to make a console game tbh
    my lurker card got revoked so here I am I guess

    I've stopped playing now. It's just so grindy.

    Like their original website and many other mobile games.. neopets does not know how to streamline and make the user experience great for things that require grinding/repeating. Yeah, make your players work for it but also make the experience of working for it smooth. They just don't seem to have played the game like any player would. Rather, just test it and be like - GOOD TO GO!

    I hope they release this for iOS so I can download it before it gets retired. I'll probably just dig out my old Note 4 just to play it for a while.

    It would be more engaging if they added actual areas from Neopia instead of some other place nobody has ever heard of, It's a very detached experience.
