Ages 8+ Safety Warning WARNING: CHOKING HAZARD - Small parts. Not for children under 3 years Review: I just bought it to look at it and you're probably reading this review because you want to do the same. Very pretty little Tama. Can't comment on the game play because, as I said, I bought this pretty little Tama just to look at it. It's currently on display in my room. A+ would recommend you buy one to look at it too. Oh! I have read that if you do play it, don't feed it snacks until it's an adult or you greatly increase the chances of killing it and you may be arrested by the Tama police before you can even reset the device. Review: Amazing… just amazing. ## Features - The original Tamagotchi digital pet loved in 1997 is back!
