Community Insight:
This game so fun us 8 and the hampsters so cute us love hampsters they soooooooooooooo cute us love this game.
First the game is amazing and we love playing it! Potentially a bug: we cannot place more then 2hamsters in he play area because we dont see anymore hamsters other then the starter ones and we really think thats not fair chase whats the point if we got so many hamsters and we cant even place it with us to play on the playground! Good game! Developer please!!! Tell us whats wrong.
This game is so cute and fun and we love it make another game with hamsters this game made us hamster obsessed.
Very cute game we like to play when Im bored or having a bad day the bright colors and adorable hamsters make it very enjoyable.
It's the best hamster game out there that we know of. You can interact with it and the hamster takes the food into the hideaway. We just saw the hamster do this today when we fed it. It was so cute.
This is amazing because it helped us get though our hamster that we lost a 2 weeks agotheres many many stages and fun this to do but if you dont feed or check on ur hamster it can like a real hamster, and its just really really fun and stuff – I_HEARTCINNAMOROLL<3.
So good! Would recommend it to anyone any age.
We are so in love with this game. Not only is it adorable but its also so fun! Well what are you waiting for? DOWNLOAD IT NOW.
Developers we appreciate you making this game Im thankful n grateful to you. There are times at night when its hard to sleep alone this nice mobile game has helps us wind down n reduce the stress n able to go to sleep then so we just want to say thank you again youre helping us. Big hugs.
This is such an adorable game, please try this game!! So many hamsters to collect.
The hamsters are so cute! Its like having a real hamster but better but we dont really like the mini game.
THIS GAME WAS LITERALLY MY CHILDHOOD IM SO HAPPY ITS STILL ON THE APP STORE.
We downloaded Hamster Life when we were about 5 maybe? And absolutely adored it. To this day we still play it, absolutely adorable. Its a great game to have. Theres some pros and cons about it though! Pros: 1. SO MANY VARIATIES OF HAMSTERS! Never gets old trying to use the Mix button and see what little baby hampers we get 2. Game has many levels! The matching game is fun and a good way to pass the time. Challenging and never gets old. 3. The hamsters hide food! They put it in their cheeks and carry it to the nearest House and stores it- SO CUTE! Cons: 1. Currencies are too hard to get. If we grind for a long time to get 200 coins then we spend it all on the stuff in the Shop, kinda overpriced. 2. You should be able to pass the mixing time with like.. 10 or 15 ads, not 8 Cheese. Cheese is hard to obtain. 3. You should add more games! Other than the Matching Game, there should be a section of games that increases the hamsters happiness by playing with them. Our suggestions are platformer games, spot the difference, and a game where your hamster has to fight off something like a persons hand trying to pick them up. Thank you for listening.
This is a really fun game if you are into hamsters and have one irl! You can have your own personal hamsters all at once! (Dont keep hamsters together irl) we really like it.
Very good yes hampter did not extinguish we were very worried that hampter would extinguish bu t then they said not to worry and it was okay Hampter did not extinguish pleas ignore beesechurger we can't make it go away Candy smash hamster is very fun we dropped our hamsters and broke the panel it was very nice Thank you your game is very nice we love cute hamptre e only problem is ads we dropped our hamster and space shooter arrived with virtual casino on our screen we could not see hamster but we know we dropped him successfully thank you very cute game goodbye.
The hamsters are so cute, we love this game we play it every day. We love love love the graphics it looks real well in a cartoon way.Anyway we love this game so much, there is nothing we dont like about it. So for people that like hamsters you need this game.
This reminds us of our hamster that we have to take care of its really cute game we would really like if you made more games like this.
The hamsters are so adorable and cute~ we love this game! Keep it up and more updates on your game!~.
Great game and vary cute but it is vary hard to earn cheese.
Pros: 1. Cute hamsters 2. You can breed them 3. Theyll have full cheeks if you feed them 5 or more times 4. One you have reached stage level 13, you can visit anyone Cons: 1. Sometimes your hamsters dont eat, drink, or run on the wheel when theyre asking you to do any of them 2. You can sometimes run out of moves 3. They can get sick if you dont care for them for more than 3 days.
Plz give us a way to get chez without money but we luv the hamsters.
We love this because they are cute and fun but there is no button to make the music go away. We have seen some people complaining about ads but we havent gotten any.
Could be so much better. We wish we could pet it. And it is not the best game ever. Its still a nice old little game. We do enjoy it though could be better so much better.
Ok this is honestly the best game ever because the hamsters are so cute you will love them forever you should have this game NOW.
This is a really cute and fun game! We have been playing this game for two weeks now, every day. Its well-made! :]. When Im bored, we just hop on here and it cures our boredom, lol.
Its very cute and doesnt have much adds.
So we downloaded the game and it became a little bit glitchy and what we dont like about it is that if you dont check on your hamsters in a few days they die sad and then you have to pay cheese to write them its weird.
We wrote a review in the past praising how great this game is, but its really gone downhill since then. We redownloaded this game recently. (we use to play it in college, but swapped over to the newly released Futurama Game of Drones due to space issues and could only keep one at the time) and the devs have gotten super greedy. When we first played it, you could breed your hamsters then sell the pups for coins. Now they expect you to actually use a very hard to get by in-game currency to even sell them and you can only keep 5 at a time. And to make matters worse, the cheese that is the in game currency is very limited and you are the mercy of the login ones. God forbid you actually make it to the 140 stage! The game itself is rigged too forcing you to buy more moves just make it through and you HAVE to get 3 stars to get any hamsters at all. RIP going to have to save like 45 login bonuses before we can actually get any hamsters now.
Our six year old son saw a YouTube video of someone playing this and wanted to get it so we downloaded it. Most times the ads are for things that kids wouldnt care about and are boring and they just let them pass (e.g. Refinance your mortgage or get new windows). One time he came over and said uhhh Dad and there was an ad for another app with scantily clad Asian girls dancing and then the next screen was to pick which one you wanted. We don't know from there, we shut it down at that point. Definitely a concern for an app rated 4+ and a shame as it is a cute game.
We love the customization of the cage, the hamster skins, and the aspect of a challenge when it comes down to the stages!! Its perfect, and who doesnt just adore hamsters as a whole? We love how you have to reach a certain level to buy everything, and then you have to save up the coins, it makes the game captivating and fun.
Its a really great game we love it so much but its so hard to get cheese in it and mateing is so long pls make it shorter But its still a great game.
Easy to learn the game play, fun, cute, and a nice distraction from daily stresses.
The hamsters are so chubby and cute and everything about this game is awesome.
This game is so darn cute!! We love animals, and we love candy crush. When you mix those together you get this game. We love how you can watch the little hamsters interact and groom themselves . Ive never gotten bored because of this game and its a great pastime. The instructions are clear, the graphics are great, the hamsters are cute, the game is fun, its for kids, its simple, and its creative! Definitely deserves a.
Everyone should play this absolute masterpiece of a game. If your not playing it your missing out.
So Theon.y reason we got this game is cause our forth favorite animal is a hamster we mean they are so cuteanyway we can not pass stage 20anyway we hav 6 hamsters and this game is pretty cool.
It is so AMAZING its like you have your own Hamsters!!! But our question is how do you get more CHEESE.
This game is so wholesome Ive been playing it forever we love it sm lol.
Amazing games all have this crazy plot, right? WRONG!!! The most amazing games are simple, like this one. Its full of hamsters and mini games and lots of fun! If you need a game to fill your free time, this is the one. FOR THE CREATORS: Youve done an amazing job with this game. Congratulations to you.
We think this game is pawsome because they made the hamsters so cute. We wanna cry it makes us so happy tho. Im a hamster fan. And a cuddle fan lol. We just wanted to share. And theres nothing you have to buy. Download for free! :D.
Ever since our hamster passed we have been playing this game and it makes us feel better THANK YOU! -Koda.
We love this game so much! Our friend recommended it to us, and we fell in love. The stages are hamster related so you wont get bored. Usually we dont like candy matching games, but its hamster related, so it makes it less boring. We love how you can do missions for cheese and you can take care of your hamsters for coins which allows you to then buy things for your hamster. There are little to no in app purchases, as you can earn everything you need. We love that there is a free roam room too (playground) and that you can buy things for it. You can earn hamsters from the mini games. There are even events which give you cheese, but you have to complete them within a time limit. Overall, we really recommend this game for hamster lovers/anyone who is bored and wants to try some games. Its better then it seems.
One the matching game are WAY too hard even our mom cant figure it out so pls make it easier. Two the hamsters are super cut we named one of ours cheese cuz she looks like one and bet she is a foodie. Moral: PLS MAKE THE MATCHING GAME EASIER.
We love this game we love hamsters but there is one problem in the playground we cant get most hamsters for example we can pull out muffin the hamster but we cant pull out lil Oreo thanks for reading this letter keep up the great work bye.
Id have more positive things to say about this app if we were a kid, and if we hadnt already been playing this for years. We got the app a couple years ago and started playing it again recently, only to find that the quality of the app has gone way down. The developers seem to have gotten quite greedy and it seems they now care more about making money than they do about making players happy. Theres way too many ads compared to how it used to be. For reference, youre getting an unskippable ad almost every single time you finish a level (regardless whether you pass it or not). Some of these ads are defective (or intentionally annoying) and feature no X button, meaning you have to quit and restart the app to get rid of it. Though even that is almost less annoying than being forced to watch five seconds of an ad before you can keep playing the game. This is all not even mentioning all the glitches in the app. The last update came almost a year ago (9 months to be fair) and its clear the developers have kind of just pushed this game to the back of their minds. So, in short, this is a disappointing outcome for the game we used to love so much. Too many glitches, WAY too many ads. And for all the other reviewers whining about this game being bad for children due to the portrayed treatment of hamsters, grow up. Its a game. We all have common sense karen.
Next day we went on the game there were no hamsters so that is why.
For making this game, it made us feel better about our hamster dying, we absolutely love hamsters! Tysm u rock :) ilysm.
Its a good game and its sooo cute.
Hey we go this app to see if it could help us practice taking care of a hamster sense Im going to buy one this weekend and this game was way more fun than we thought SHOUT OUTS TO WHOEVER MADE THIS AWSOME APP ITHIS APP.
