Pocket Pet - a free virtual pet care game
Pocket Pet is a free, browser-based virtual pet care game. Hunger, happiness, and energy change over real time, even between visits, so checking back in matters. No login and nothing to download, just open this page and play. Your current pet, and your longest surviving pet's age, are both remembered in this browser only.
How to Play
- Press Hatch to get your first pet.
- Feed raises hunger, Play raises happiness but costs energy, and Sleep lets energy recover over time.
- Feed and Play are unavailable while sleeping. Press Wake first.
- All three stats drop on their own over time, even while you're away.
- If any stat sits at zero for too long, your pet's health starts fading. Losing all its health ends that pet's life.
- After a pet passes away, hatch a new one and try to beat its age.
Frequently Asked Questions
- How do you play Pocket Pet?
- Hatch a pet, then keep its hunger, happiness, and energy stats up over time by feeding it, playing with it, and letting it sleep. Stats drop on their own even when you are not looking, so check back regularly. If any stat stays at zero for too long, your pet's health starts to fade, and if health runs out, your pet passes away.
- What are the controls for Pocket Pet?
- Click or tap Feed, Play, or Sleep. Feed and Play are unavailable while your pet is sleeping, since it needs to be woken up first.
- Is Pocket Pet free to play?
- Yes, completely free, with no account or app download required.
- Does Pocket Pet save my progress?
- Yes, unlike most other games here, your current pet is saved in this browser via localStorage and keeps aging even between visits, since checking back over time is the whole point. Your longest surviving pet's age is also saved as your best.
