FAQs
Can I pause the Tamagotchi?
The original programming does not include a pause function; however, you can set the time to a future hour to effectively 'sleep' the device when you are unable to tend to it.
What is the difference between this and newer models?
This is a Gen 3 re-release of the original device, maintaining the classic black-and-white pixel art and gameplay style rather than color screens.
How long does a Tamagotchi live?
Lifespan depends heavily on the quality of care; with consistent, excellent care, a character can thrive for several weeks.
Does it need Wi-Fi or an app?
No, this is a standalone electronic device that requires no internet connection or external applications.
Can I mute the Tamagotchi?
Yes, you can toggle the sound settings by pressing the A and C buttons simultaneously in specific modes.
What should I do if my pet refuses to eat?
If your pet is ill or has reached its capacity, it may refuse food. Try providing medical attention if it is sick, or play a game to increase its hunger.
Troubleshooting
The screen is blank or frozen.
Perform a reset by pressing the small button on the back of the shell using a pointed object like a paperclip.
The pet is constantly becoming ill.
Ensure you are clearing waste promptly and keeping the hunger and happy meters adequately filled.
Sounds are not playing during gameplay.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To begin, remove the battery tab from the back of the unit. The device uses standard coin-cell batteries typical for digital handhelds. Use a small screwdriver to access the compartment if the battery needs replacing. Keep the device away from extreme temperatures and moisture, as the internal circuitry is sensitive to environmental damage. Wipe the screen and shell with a soft, dry cloth to remove fingerprints and dust. Avoid pressing the buttons with excessive force to maintain the longevity of the rubber contacts.
