Most Influential Virtual Pet Game: Which One Changed the Game?

I am completely sure Neopets stands as the leading pick. Every gamer spent many hours on Neopets website to look after virtual pets while discovering everything in the game. The game presented a complete virtual digital realm for players.
 
I don't know for others but to me, it's Neopets. The game success attribute to why every players go for it because it's so relaxing, incredible and good for stress management.

Your comment about Neopets is right. What you said on how the game shaped the development of virtual pet gaming is true. The exploration and customization in this game created a high standard which other titles later followed.
 
Tamagotchi is one of the most influential pet games as they originally started the virtual pets concept, followed by Digimon.

Then, Neopets took it one step further by turning the “digital virtual pets” hand held concept into a browser based game, which years later resulted in various other virtual pet sites being developed as well.

Without Tamagotchi, I don’t believe we’d have a whole industry of virtual pet games as we do now.

Digimon also played their part after Tamagotchi’s success since they came right after Tamagotchi with their own digital vpet.

However, the success of Tamagotchi and Neopets played a vital role in influencing the genre.

It's not only on Neopets. There are other pets that have same features like Tamagotchi and Digimon. All are doing their best to become better.
