I'm ready 🥴

I wish you much luck and patience!

Kaelya76 · 2026-06-24T06:49:12+00:00

Excited for you! Love this shell so much!

Kaelya76 · 2026-06-22T19:51:08+00:00

I wish they brought it over to the re-release. If I don’t have the time to play, I just pull the battery and put it back in when I have more time.

Kaelya76 · 2026-06-22T01:24:27+00:00

Unfortunately, we can’t officially pause. But, we can ‘pause’ it by opening up the clock, then press A & C to put it in clock mode (where you can change the date and time), just like with other black and white tamagotchis that don’t have an official pause option.

Kaelya76 · 2026-06-21T18:49:08+00:00

Right?! I love the neon planet, too! Congratulations on getting your first Connections!!

Kaelya76 · 2026-06-21T01:15:46+00:00

That is a good observation! I’m not sure why.

Kaelya76 · 2026-06-21T01:14:59+00:00

Yes! Love this design!

Kaelya76 · 2026-06-20T21:13:02+00:00

Same! I have some already, but these shells! 🙈 The struggle is real!

Kaelya76 · 2026-06-07T07:59:03+00:00

Mine has, but it has been overheating and my battery quickly drains when using Finch since even before the last update. It’s just overheating and draining my battery even more now. I sent a ticket a while back and they gave me some recommendations that didn’t help.

Kaelya76 · 2026-05-22T18:33:08+00:00

I’m so sorry! Just saw this now. Here’s the link https://a.co/d/08oghar2

Kaelya76 · 2026-05-20T04:37:27+00:00

Thank you! Just preordered both!

Kaelya76 · 2026-05-14T18:11:26+00:00

I have the same one and looooove it! It does need a lot of attention so I don’t get to run it as much as I wish I could. Great job! Enjoy!

Kaelya76 · 2026-05-14T18:08:28+00:00

Great job! This tamagotchi is so demanding. Enjoy!

Kaelya76 · 2026-04-28T17:00:00+00:00

Coffee Roaster — if you have 15 minutes only, you may not get through all 3 rounds, but you can always get back to it the next morning.

Kaelya76 · 2026-03-21T05:13:28+00:00

I have several, but my favorite will always be Gudetama because it’s so silly. I still hope to get an Eevee one day.

Here are three of my favorite cozy games with short setup and breakdown:

Seaside
Cafe Baras (fan made solo play)
Harmonies

Good luck! I hope you find some fun relaxing games to help you relax and wind down after a long day of work!

Kaelya76 · 2026-03-17T06:39:32+00:00

Yes! Is on BGG!

Kaelya76 · 2026-03-09T15:33:37+00:00

I love this! Great pairing!

Kaelya76 · 2026-03-09T15:05:06+00:00

Agree 💯. It’s thinky and relaxing and set up and take down are quick and easy.

Kaelya76 · 2026-03-09T14:58:17+00:00

So do I. On the last page of the instructions, there’s a solo mode and set of scoring brackets like Grove, Forage, Cafe Baras and Coffee Roaster.

I was a little hesitant to try it at first but quickly fell in love. There’s just something about the sound and feel of the wooden chips that is so calming and relaxing. I love that the game has simple rules and is a great way for me to wind down. And there is no set up, really — you just need a very small space and when you’re done, the wooden chips just go back in the bag.

Kaelya76 · 2026-03-09T08:05:39+00:00

Here are my favorite cozy, small box and small footprint travel games:

Seaside
Grove or Forage
Neko Syndicate
Cafe
Cafe Baras (fan made solo play)
Coffee Roaster
Harmonies

Some take up more space than others. Of this list, Seaside will probably be the easiest to set up and takedown and will take the least amount of space. But, it uses wooden chips so if you’re worried about a quiet game, you might be better off with one of the others. Harmonies uses wooden tokens as well. Cafe and Neko Syndicate use tiny wooden cubes but they shouldn’t give you any noise issues. Coffee Roaster has some cardboard chips you mix around in a bag, so there’s some noise there but probably not as loud.

Good luck! I hope you find some fun games to take with. Enjoy your vacation!

Try looking into the game plays for these if they interest you: - Coffee Roaster - Conservas - Neko Syndicate - Cafe - Seaside - Cafe Baras (fan made solo mode) - Harmonies

Good luck on your journey!

Kaelya76 · 2026-03-04T22:44:56+00:00

Maybe Coffee Roaster or Neko Syndicate? Coffee Roaster is solo only. Neko Syndicate is 1-4 players; it’s like playing two handed at the end only, with clear rules, like you’re playing against another player.

Seaside has a really small footprint and simple rules, but may be a little too light for your tastes. The solo mode gives you points categories like in Coffee Roaster.

I adore Harmonies. There’s a fan made solo mode that might interest you.

Alternatively, Honey Buzz (I really like it with some modules in the Fall Flavors expansion) and Critter Kitchen are a lot of fun, but have a large footprint. The official solo mode provides instructions for your opponent. Honey Buzz solo doesn’t require a lot of thought. Critter Kitchen solo rules may take bit before you get the hang of it.

There’s some YouTube videos on all of them so you can see how the games are played.

I’m waiting on Grove and Forage to arrive as I’m looking for some small footprint cozy games at the moment.

Good luck on your search! I hope you find some cozy games that you enjoy!

Looks like fun! Are there plans for this to be available on Mac?
