Voidpet Garden Reviews

The creators of this game had such a cool idea and such amazing potential but they threw it all away for profitability which is NOT what a mental health app should have been focused on. They do not care about their user base and abandon projects willy-nilly because they got tired of them. Their tim... Show more e management and communication skills are lacking to the nth degree and it shows. Their disrespect to the people who play the game shows how little they care about the people who actively want to use VoidpetGarden for their mental health. They only care about adding features that make money, not what would actually help someone’s mental state. They are unresponsive, shallow, and quite honestly robotic in their behavior and it is concerning.

Use Finch instead, it’s a sweet app with great features that get updated frequently and you are not instantly locked by a paywall

The discord server is full of snowflakes I made a small joke saying like haha I’m gonna eat ur lizard and everyone freak out and warned me and then I just follow along with the rules of the server and still get warned? And like someone was getting triggered bc they read my text wrong and they were ... Show more like where is —-? And I said idk maybe eating tuna bc of their user name and I get warned again just bc I didn’t know I triggered someone?? Actual softies in there 🫤. Ik it’s a game about mental health but sheesh y’all can be stronger than that, you guys are mad at a joke that didn’t even break any of the rules or was on the trigger list. And the game is also just too slow paced imo. Also I’ve known about the game since it first started out and it was we were given sneak peaks about new void pets and requesting different types to be created (just thought I’d put that there bc I’m bored and why not 😋) I’m going to eat you’re lizard🤍/j

The game is cute, and the idea behind it is wonderful, but so far there’s seemingly nothing to it. I understand it’s a newly launched app, but even so, for them having claimed to spend a lot of time on it, there’s genuinely nothing to do. You log on, see if maybe some new pet needs your assistance,... Show more you assist them, then they leave and you don’t see them again even if you befriend them. Very easy to loose interest, and no true point or goal to the game. I’ve yet to have any of the pets I've befriended even stick around, which is quite disappointing.
The art is cute, and the concept is good, but I feel as though it’s been very poorly executed. There’s no motivation to come back onto VoidpetGarden daily or put in time to the game. If you’re looking for a self care app, there’s many more out there far better than this, and much more engaging.
I sincerely hope the devs greatly improve on this, as I truly believe it could be something wonderful so long as effort and care is actually put forth. Right now it seems like a neglected and uncared for project.

Let’s be honest, mental health is the last reason people started playing voidpet. The cool design, pokemon like gameplay, and the vivids is what brought people in. Probably even the characters and promise of a story driven game at one point. That all went downhill. VoidpetGarden is fun for maybe a... Show more day or two but all it is is vivid farming, even more so once you know the time skip exploit. The website has been pretty much abandoned aside from all the emotions being added soon enough. Maybe at one point the idea had a lot of potential, but not anymore. You have to grind weeks to months for anything good on the website and the characters, quests, and storyline just don’t get updated anymore. On VoidpetGarden getting things is as easy as pie. The lack of quality or direction is very noticeable these days. It’s also very obvious it’s in the hands of inexperienced game devs who either refuse or turn away much needed help.

I LOVE the concept of this, but I feel like there’s far too much that requires a subscription. It especially feels coercive coming from an app that’s self-care oriented.

I am comparing it to Finch, another self-care app. In contrast, the free version of Finch includes all the essential featu... Show more res, plus a lot of engaging bonus ones, like allowing you to access your past journaling (vs. VoidpetGarden, which doesn’t) or earn little pets. Yet they’ve also made their paid version appealing! They also allow users to gift subscriptions to other users, which I think is lovely (with the understanding the creators need to pay themselves and their expenses as well).

I don’t want to be forced to buy a paid subscription in order to enjoy VoidpetGarden! I think trying to use the unpaid version is probably going to be more stressful than helpful, with reminders of limits and inaccessibility every few seconds I navigate VoidpetGarden . I’ll most likely be deleting for that reason, sadly.

Not even really a game, I hope i can get a refund on my Giga :/

I think needing to subscribe to look at the self care history just defeats the purpose. Cbt is reflecting on your emotions how can I reflect if I can’t see it :( I loooooove this game I hope there’s more in store. The paywall doesn’t seem very fair. More storage, more gifts, and more customization ... Show more makes total sense. The more journaling though that feels like taking advantage of my poor mental health. Luckily I’m using the fabulous app and it does this same thing in a more straightforward way. I’m keeping this game because I want to see where it goes the potential is there. I’m willing to stick around to see

currently a big fan of voidpet.com and i really like VoidpetGarden so far! only downsides are that it eats through my battery really fast and the background and intro proportions are a little wonky on the ipad

I would give this a 5 star, but it’s a bit frustrating. One of the frustrating things in this game is the wrecking ball move, I feel if it hits your pet on full health the other person shouldn’t be able to use it again. This would make it less unreasonably over powered. Also, this isn’t nearly as b... Show more ig of a problem as the wrecking ball, but being able to go twice in a row. Like I’m sorry what? My other pet just died and now the other one gets one shot immediately after? Isn’t this game meant to make people calmer, happier? This is just flat out rage quit material. Thanks for reading this, and I hope you can make these changes to the game! Maybe its just me who thinks this is annoying though so…

I love the idea of an app focused on more self care than grinding levels! As fun as the levels and quests are online, it does still need a bit more to do. I’m so happy there’s a more relaxing version now where you can focus not just on collecting the emotion Voidpets, but also personally taming the... Show more m in your own life.

I will say, when I first downloaded VoidpetGarden I was hoping for some way to log in to my online account. I was excited to see possibly more ways to bond with your pets and tame them further in an app version, or maybe even new stats that were only available through the more personal view through VoidpetGarden , but that doesn’t seem to be an option as of right now.

I’m curious, will this ever be an option in the future, or will VoidpetGarden and website continue on as stand-alones? Even if we’re not able to engage with the same pets as in the website, it would be nice to see something tying them together in some way so I can feel like I’m making progress in both worlds.

Side note: thank you to the creators for putting in so much effort into this world idea. You guys are the best and I love your work so far!

I am visually impaired, and even with the majority of this being images, it is very accessible, and incredibly fun! The only downside is that the "battle" system is a little hard to manage. Clicking on the pet, either yours or the opponent, brings up an endless loop of information about that pet th... Show more at cannot be dismissed. Additionally, no moves are visible to choose from.
Other than this, the interface is really helpful, the tutorial does concisely teach you what you'd want to do for the daily visit to VoidpetGarden .
All around, incredible premise, and an app I look forward to seeing updates for, should more accessibility be implemented!

I’ve loved everything about the game so far. When I get to meet new little creatures every time I open VoidpetGarden and sometimes they’ll ask me to dance with them for 30 seconds. Melts my heart and makes my day. The game also reminds me to look for the good in my day. Dealing with the creatures ... Show more representing different emotions sometimes they’ll ask you for advice and you’ll get to pick one out of two options to tell that emotion about its problem. The problems the emotions are struggling with are relatable and the advice given is what you need to hear sometimes. All I want from the game is more!

So VoidpetGarden itself has room for improvement, it's very basic and there's no variety after you've played it for a month except the color of pets you catch and the rotation of items in the shop. It's pretty bare bones and I'd love to see more development, like changes in what the pets say, thin... Show more gs in the store, or some way to get giga gems besides pet preferences and subscribing.

I use it as a tool in the toolbox though. It gives me something to be mindful of the morning and it's simple enough that I've almost done it every day this month consistently, and I do it more days than I didn't in the past.

I never write reviews I just don’t really find it necessary but I downloaded this and it feels like sense of purpose looking after my Voidpets and taking care of them, it helps me with my thoughts and gives me a free place to vent, I also like that there isn’t any ads and you don’t really have to ... Show more pay for much at all unless you want the beta but there’s so much to do without having beta. If I feel alone I know I can take out my Voidpets and have a feeling of comfort warm my heart up thank you for VoidpetGarden

I’ve been waiting for this game to come out ever since I saw it on TikTok a while ago, and it was super cool getting to play the beta version on the website. When I found out it was a real app I had to get it, and even though it’s a lot different from the original I’ve loved collecting all the plan... Show more ts and pets! It’s very relaxing and fun and the game on the website is as great as ever. I’ve seen the work put into these and I just want to say thank you and keep it up 🫶

I remember when VoidpetGarden started being developed, and it’s wonderful to see how it came out!
The job of VoidpetGarden seems to be helping show how emotions should be “grown” and treated. I think it’s fully effective in doing so.

I do think it’s in need for some more depth and lor... Show more e. The Voidpets themselves are full of meaning. I think that the other aspects of the game are lacking in comparison. For example: the food you can buy your pets could be more meaningful, rather than randomly assorted gag foods. It’s a little too cute and funny for a game set in a emotional health self-care app setting. Of course, I’m sure VoidpetGarden will have updates, and I’m sure there are people who disagree with me saying “the food is too cute!”. My comment certainly isn’t significant, it’s really more of a preference.

Anyways I love the art of the game and all of the fun journaling, it puts me in a good mood.

The concept and ideas of the human mind and mental stay is vividly illustrated in this game. Just the simple idea of creating a being which is used to represent a certain emotion. Which although it might not seem like it, this game has a deep and powerful meaning behind it. The meaning being repre... Show more sented in how the game directly asks how you are feeling, and even goes as far as presenting and asking you for a better word for how you are feeling. This game is amazing. And I thank you for the creation of this game.

I love this game so much! It’s the most common games I play! I love the updates, pets, cute little style of them, and more! I only have one suggestion:

I wish you were able to change your pets colors, in order to do that you have to have a plant of it. I wish you had the option to change the... Show more color of them, without having to change the color of the plant.

Other then that, I love the game and I hope it keeps improving and getting more players! Rad! 😉✨✨

i love this game so much. it's the only mental health app i've been able to keep up with for more than two weeks. My only honest request is the creation of a mourning void creature of some sorts. grief or something. my beloved cat might be passing away very shortly and it would mean the absolute wo... Show more rld to me to have a little critter like that to support me. she's a little void kitty too <3 she's very vocal and chatty and she loves to sit beside me to hang out. i'm allergic to lots of things, including cat hair, but she doesn't enjoy hugs and being cuddled and carried, she just wants your presence and some pets. so we always worked out real well. she loves to sing to us. she has been with me for my entire life. thank you for what you have given us .

This game is so cute and relaxing, sure it has in app-purchases but what game doesn’t? It’s comforting and I may be sad and lonely but that doesn’t change FACTS!!!

I’ve struggled with mental health for years, and this game has helped me feel better. The questions are meaningful and thoughtful, allowing me to process my emotions or vent safely, and it’s a great mechanic. The collector in me also loves the void pets and their colors as well as the trees, and si... Show more nce I had a team of level 60s by the time the combat event started it was fun to blow everyone out of the water. The collectible “likes” also made it so much easier to get diamonds, otherwise I would have said something about that. My only problem is that when doing the “Name your emotions” there’s no option for being in pain or not feeling well health wise, as when I feel like that it’s all I can focus on. That’s more nitpicking, though, because I love this game!!

An amazing game, I truly love it. If there’s a game i recommend you trying it’s this one, very fun and a non competitive peaceful experience that promotes mental health very well. 10/10

I found this game scrolling through the barren landscape of emotion that is Tik Tok, I chose Envy as my starter and I fully evolved him, I’ve got a bunch of pets now and I just love checking in with them, I wish I could talk to them more without giga, because I talked with envy once then I could ne... Show more ver talk again, but I really must say I love how easy the game is, it’s like Pokémon but without the difficulty, it’s just entirely meant to be relaxing, the battles are easy and are very enjoyable, not only that but if you lose you don’t really get any progress taken, you just go back and try again!

I love this game so much, it is so fun and interesting and I love collecting new pets and plants. There is just one thing however, which maybe in the future could be changed. I know this game is not extremely well known, so you need money to keep your game thriving. But I wished I wouldn’t have to ... Show more pay 40 dollars a year to see my mental progress. I understand talking to your pets, but why do I have to pay to see something just did? Like my goals or how I am feeling, as I just did it for my plants to nourish them. It is just silly considering that I have to pay to see something that I have done previously. I could easily keep track of everything in notes or take screenshots, it just seems a little tedious 😐 other than that however, I absolutely love this game, and it is really well made. Keep up the amazing work 👍

Overall it’s a very stylized and interesting looking game, with pets that range anywhere from weird to cute. It takes a minute to fully grasp all the different aspects of gameplay but I urge people to give it a genuine try. It has all the charm of a good indie game with lots of levels to grind thro... Show more ugh and quirky little pets to find. Still trying to discover as many variations as possible and have had a few days where I’ve picked it up every couple of hours. It has a great balance of waiting and fighting as you level up through the void and discover new things about the world of Voidpets.

I can’t wait to see what else they add to the game and fully suggest giving it a try, even if it’s just to look at the interesting art style.

I’ve tried a few other apps that are meant to help you take care of yourself and track your mood. None of them even came close to this. I’ve seen it on TikTok for quite a while, and I decided I might as well give it a try after a year of being recommended it, and honestly, the only thing I’m mad ab... Show more out is that I didn’t try this sooner.

I was having a bad day and I got this cat named curious (which just happens to be my favorite animal) and talking with it, helped write in my mood as well as taken care of the other void pets I have collected! Good job devs you guys are doing a wonderful job!

I love this game and am a daily player even almost a month into having VoidpetGarden , which is rare as far as self-care/mental health apps go. If you’re into collecting and battling with your emotions, you’ll feel very rewarded with several main aspects of this game. If you came here to engage in ... Show more self-care, you can engage in real-life self-care activities to help your garden grow.

Unfortunately, you can only do the self-care activities once a day, and they are very brief. I would love to see the ability to engage in self-care activities multiple times a day added - even if it only benefits your garden the first time a day. Perhaps an added section of the menu where you can pick the voidpet you’d like to do self-care alongside? I’d love to be able to meditate with a longer guided meditation, too.

Overall a really fun and cute app, which could reach wider appeal in the mental health community with expanded functionality for self-care activities. I love the direction VoidpetGarden is going with adding an expanded journaling function, please keep it up!

I absolutely love this game and I am so happy about all of the extra changes it has gone through since downloading VoidpetGarden . I have nothing to complain about but I did have a question. I was curious about the plants and when you make them vivid. I was wondering if the vivid effect does anythi... Show more ng in attracting different types of pets. I noticed how once I made the plants vivid it didn’t seem to change the type or rarity of the void pets it attracted. It would be super cool if it did have those types of effects though. I was also wondering if there were any other ways to get the gem type currency. The only way I have discovered so far is from finding a new thing that pets like and I think you get them from winning battles but idk. If there was a way to seek out and win specifically gems and not void matter that would amazing. Overall love the game though and can’t wait to see how it evolves in the future!

Love each aspect of the game and how it doesn’t let you play non stop. I think that’s super important for a therapeutic game as spending tons of time on your phone is usually not that great, but it’s a great alternative for physical journaling if it’s hard to keep up on for some. Love the journalin... Show more g prompts it gives you.

edit: I wish they would bring back the multiple types of journal prompts a day instead of just one type per day. I’m the type of person who doesn’t journal every day and instead takes a lot of info down every once in a while. But still good game 👍

I do not write reviews, but This game is not like the other mental health apps, but for a good reason I believe. It has everything to keep you drawn in and actually feel like you’re growing with your pets. The sounds and art style are quite incredible and help keep you calm while giving you a space... Show more to reflect and take a moment throughout your day. All in all, I would give this a 10/10 and the only improvements I think should be made is sounds during battles and adding friends, maybe battling with them too. That leans more towards the action aspect but for me I think it would be a remarkable addition! Thank you devs for creating something to help people while also making it very fun and diverse :)

I’ve struggled to stick to a journaling app or any other positive thinking, mental health or meditation app. This one makes me feel good. It makes me feel supported and gives me a nice routine. Even if you need a quick 2 minute break to just pause and breath through the day, VoidpetGarden has it. ... Show more Do not be mistaken, it’s not really a game, therefore don’t be disappointed when there’s not much to do. It’s for your mind and reminders to think positively through the day because your little voids are there to motivate you when you feel like slowing down. Highly recommend for those looking for a positive thinking app :)

I actually look forward to opening VoidpetGarden. I’ve been around since the beginning of voidpets development and I do enjoy both the website version and this version a lot, but what I really like is that the pets don’t feel neglected if I leave for a long time, I dont like that attribute in game... Show more s, it makes me stressed and upset because i genuinely get attached to things way to quickly and I hate disappointing my pets, so it’s good that they always stay happy cause I would be emotionally destroyed if they were unhappy.

VoidpetGarden is honestly really great. It’ll go over the features one by one right here:

•20 minute pet spawning wait - In my opinion this is kind of a genius idea. Basically, in order for pets to spawn you have to stay off of VoidpetGarden for 20 minutes. This encourages you to do other ... Show more things while you wait, including practicing self care.

•Simple design - Pretty self explanatory. The design of the game is very simple. All you do is grow a garden that attracts pets that you can befriend, and those befriended pets will stop by your garden every once in awhile, allowing you more options on how you can interact with them (cuddling.) It’s a cute pet collection self care game, and very minimalistic in a very good way.

•Sound design - this is a bit less impactful but the sounds, although quite scare (which is fine,) is very nice. For example, the song that plays when you’re doing a time activity with a pet to befriend it, some calming, jazzy music plays which is very nice to hear. Also, the “activity completed” sound effect jingle is pretty nice too.

•Non pay-to-win subscription- VoidpetGarden includes a subscription called Giga which includes a couple nice features but nothing too game changing (just extra pet slots, reflection records and gems for exclusive pet accessories that are just for visuals.) It’s not too much but it’s quite nice- especially considering many games and apps with subscriptions make those subscriptions grant the subscriber a much further enhanced experience, so it’s just a breath of fresh air to not have to spend all of your money to get the best experience out of the Voidpet app.

All in all- if you like pet collection games and wish to engage in self care, Voidpet is likely VoidpetGarden for you.

i've been a major fan of voidpet since the website was in its beta testing stages. seeing the development and growth of the game as well as the community has been something that i will forever take with immense gratitude. i'm incredibly excited for what VoidpetGarden has in store :]

I really like VoidpetGarden and it gives me a reason to actually self care. thank you <333

it’s a very chill pet garden, with gorgeous backgrounds and cute pets! and the journaling aspect is very cool as well!! very peaceful, with crisp sound effects too <3 highly recommend to those who just want to take care of pets while doing some pretty laid-back journaling :]

The web is really fun but does get grindy so VoidpetGarden is lovely to just chill with :0

Been wait for VoidpetGarden to come out for so lonnggggggg

been playing since the site dropped so im excited to see how VoidpetGarden plays out

This game is so cute and it makes me calm.

We love VoidpetGarden, its so calming and kind and aaaa we LOVE IT!!

This game is more what i envisioned voidpet.com being when i first started there (both are great dont get me wrong) and it probably says more about me than VoidpetGarden but i teared up when glee left me a letter — this is the self care app that really resonates with me on a more personal level an... Show more d its beautiful. Only one complaint and its minor and understandable:

Maybe have a lifelong purchase option for giga — i feel like a subscription is the opposite of what i want to be thinking of while opening VoidpetGarden . I would buy a lifelong giga subscription in a heartbeat but as it stands i dont think i’ll buy a monthlong or yearly subscription

I’ve been waiting so long for VoidpetGarden to come out and it did not disappoint! It’s so cute and calming and really is a mood booster for me, even on the days that are bad for me, VoidpetGarden brings me a bit of joy to make it not so bad. As someone with chronic pain, this little app helps a ... Show more lot in many different ways!

Update: Wish there was a way to organize the void pets you have so you can easily see what doubles you have since there is limited space for how many you can have. Still adore the game and find it helping me when I’ve had a shhhht day at work.

i love this game because it leans away from the pokemon-like battling of voidpet.com, and goes into a more pokemon ranch-esque style. i love the voidpet art too. sadge is my favorite so far

VoidpetGarden is the best self-care app I’ve used, it even got me to buy the subscription! Lots of variety! A couple of things I would say though to improve things. I’d love to be able to keep the conversations I have with my voidpets logged so I can look at and enjoy them later on. Also, when I’m... Show more talking to/taking care of a voidpet, if I leave VoidpetGarden in any way, they just leave without picking the conversation back up or letting me finish my care…even if it’s for a quick second…I’d love to be able to also be able to chat with my voidpets whenever I want to instead of having to wait for them to appear by random chance. Other than all of this, it’s a great app for self-reflection, so keep up the great work! Thanks for reading, and have a great day! (Quick edit/addition: I think it would also be great if the subscription included unlimited chatting with your voidpets)

I love VoidpetGarden I’ve been in daily since I got the email about VoidpetGarden finally releasing. I think I’ve been a bit more mindful of my feelings and thoughtful towards troubling situations. The only criticism I have is, I wish there were more prompts. More in depth questions and self disc... Show more ussions I think would drive a lot more people to VoidpetGarden. I also wish that when you feel a certain way that a creature from that emotion would be conjured, instead of one that just shows up? I think it would be cool if I said that I felt abandoned (ex.) that the abandonment creature would show up. Plus emotions change throughout the day, I often find myself not feeling the same way I do all day and I would like more prompts to kind of release that tension. Elsewise I love VoidpetGarden and the concept, not to mention the creatures are pretty cute, just wish there was a little more personalized interactions.

I’ve been playing Voidpets for a while. I caught on to it while it was still very early in development and have been here since, and when I saw that VoidpetGarden now exists I was absolutely so excited. I love all the mechanics of this game like how they’re emotions and you care for them and there... Show more s different versions and all that. Especially now with this its a whole new level of interesting because you’re growing plants and they come to see the plants and thats how you find them and it’s really cute. I am still going to play the website version but I feel like this will become a favorite to many. I mean that in a good way of course, this gives people who haven’t played the website version a chance to see how amazing VoidPets is! Keep up the great work love how this is going so far!

I saw this game on tiktok and decided to play it, I really enjoy it so far and the creatures are adorable. Definitely worth a try!

I have been having some trouble with my mental health lately and I saw VoidpetGarden on tiktok, I decided to download it because it looked cute! I haven’t been playing for long, but it really has helped me think through some of my emotions. Also, the fact that the Voidpets are cute makes it easier... Show more to do the activities with them. I think that being able to name them is a really great feature, it helps to grow attached to the pets. I have grown attached to the first one I got, an anxious one named Teddy.
Having said all of that, I will definitely recommend VoidpetGarden to any, and all, of my friends that are struggling with their mental health.

I think the only thing I would change, is being able to chat more, like the amount you can chat with them would refill every day or so.

Overall I love the positive mental health tools I feel that this game is teaching me and it is actually helping me keep healthier habits with my phone. You can use the game a few times a day, but I won’t spend more than 3 minutes on it at a time which I think promotes a healthier relationship with ... Show more my phone! It has helped me start journaling in a very low commitment way and I love that the pets remind you of goals you’ve made in the past and positive thoughts you’ve shared. I see other reviews complain about there not being much to do but I think the lack of a huge time commitments is the point and makes the game feel very relaxing to play.

I spend hours on VoidpetGarden and it totally relaxes me and helps relieve my anxiety! 10/10 would recommend

I’ve been following the development of VoidpetGarden from very early on. I was so excited when I found out it was available on VoidpetGarden Store, and I immediately downloaded it. As someone who loves collecting things and struggles to name emotions, VoidpetGarden is honestly perfect. The visua... Show more l representation of emotions, the colorful variants, and the self care aspect of it all is so wonderful and calming.

The new chat feature is unlike any I’ve ever used. Quick responses and very helpful ideas make this new part of VoidpetGarden so personal and real. Instead of the usual suggestions, your Void Pets use “personal experience” to relate to the user and responds in ways that make me feel seen.

Overall, VoidpetGarden is great, and I am so excited to see where it goes next.
