About RetroPet: Virtual Pet
RetroPet is an old-school virtual pet: a pixel creature that lives in real time — and a whole collection of species waiting to be discovered. COLLECT THEM ALL 75+ species: common, rare, SECRET and LEGENDARY. The rarest ones aren't given away: flawless care, breeding with other players and special eggs are the way to reach them. Every pet you discover stays in your collection forever — can you complete it? Achievements and rewards for every collection milestone. BREED AND PLAY WITH OTHERS Connect with nearby players, by QR code, or through your friends list. Breed two pets to earn special eggs: 8 types, from common to CHAOS — the fast lane to the rarest species. Trade items with friends and climb the global rankings. Friend requests, live alerts and notifications: your caretaker circle is one tap away. YOUR PET REALLY LIVES Feed it, clean up after it, heal it, discipline it, and turn off the light so it sleeps. Neglect has consequences: it gets sick, sad… and it can die. And when it dies, it dies. The quality of your care decides what it evolves into: egg to baby, child, teen and adult. ALWAYS WITH YOU Dynamic Island and Lock Screen: your pet walks around, ANIMATED, even with the app closed. Home Screen widgets and a full Apple Watch app: care from your wrist. Notifications when it needs you. AND MORE Minigames to earn coins, daily missions, unlockable themes and backgrounds. Play without an account (guest mode) or sign in with Apple, Google or Discord to take your collection anywhere. Available in 9 languages. Optional in-app purchases (coins, eggs and items). Your pet doesn't need them to live a happy life — it just needs you.
