Real-life simulating Tamagotchi is nostalgic, challenging, and really fun - Yanko Design
Briefly

Terence Grover has reinvented the classic Tamagotchi, transforming it into a more complex game that explores the depths of human life through the lens of Maslow's hierarchy of needs. This updated version utilizes 3D components and a Raspberry Pi to create a life simulation that goes beyond mere feeding; players must navigate through challenges like jobs and debt to survive. Grover aimed to parody life simulator games with humor while engaging players in serious interactions, yet his YouTube video showcasing the project holds surprisingly low views, raising questions about its visibility.
"Terence Grover's reimagined Tamagotchi combines classic gameplay with the complexities of real-life challenges, making it not just a game but a parody of life itself."
"Grover's version emphasizes the importance of fulfilling various human needs through gameplay, mirroring Abraham Maslow's hierarchy from physiological to self-actualization."
