Just hatched my clear Umino #Tamagotchi aka the infamous Ocean. 🪼 This virtual pet is notoriously difficult to raise to an adult. These little guys (which eventually grow into a dolphin, fish, clam, or other sea pet) are needy, prone to illness, and unfortunately prey to a vicious polar bear that will lurk at the edge of your screen at random and attack your pet while you're not looking. 😨 (This pet has a motion sensor, so you have to tap the side of the shell to scare the bear away.)

My Ocean made it to its adult evolution! It's the second-best-care character, Taiyakitchi, a somewhat derpy-looking fish.

(The toddler stage, a jellyfish, was hell on toast; it was beeping at me for attention every 10 minutes. 😰)

I'm so pleased I didn't go belly-up!
