Question

Why does the Tamagotchi die when most virtual pets do not?

Community Answer

The Tamagotchi dies to show your mistakes of neglect. It is meant to make it more realistic and teach kids what might happen if they don't take care of their real pets.

Question

Does it take naps?

A tamagotchi will only take naps as a baby, and sometimes does this just to evolve into a child.

Question

How do I train a Tamagotchi?

Community Answer

One way to train your Tamagotchi is to take it to the toilet just before it is about to poop (which is when you see "stink lines" above its head and it looks like it's wiggling). Another way is if your Tamagotchi calls you and it doesn't need anything; click Time Out, which is one of the options when you select the symbol that looks like Pac-Man. The final way to train your Tamagotchi is when it looks sad or is crying. You need to go to the Pac-Man symbol and then click on Praise. Your Tamagotchi will instantly cheer up, and all three of these methods will increase the training meter by a few bars. The training bar will never go down over time.

What do I do if my Tamagotchi cries?

Question

How long does it take for a generation one to become an adult?

Community Answer

It takes 24 hours for your Tamagotchi to age 1 year, so it will take 4-5 days for your Tamagotchi to become an adult. This only applies if you don't pause it, as the 24 hours is accumulated from time it has been un-paused.

Question

How can I make my Tamagotchi lose weight?

Community Answer

Play games with the Tamagotchi, as playing a game usually yields losing 1 pound. Jump rope is a great example of this: Jump 6 times and lose 1 pound, 16 to lose 2 pounds, and 30 to lose 3 pounds!

Question

Why is my Tamagotchi taking so long to grow up?

Community Answer

Be patient. Tamas take some time to grow. Try spending more time with it. Try also playing with it more and giving it more sleep.
