    A good game that respects the gameplay of the EyePet series and improves on it. Maybe some players might find it limited, because there are no more objectives that to have fun with our lovely creature. But there are plenty of options and features to discover, and the use of PlayStation Move is great.

    The kids are going to love this and even we quickly grew attached to our very own virtual pet. There are however some downsides: the annoying voice-overs and the often failing Move controls tone down the fun.

    The interactivity is erratic, but it's got enough personality to justify the purchase if you have kids. [Christmas 2011, p.111]

    While EyePet & Friends can be a good distraction for siblings and even teach a few valuable lessons, technical snafus all over the place can turn the whole experience into a frustrating one for kids and parents alike.

    EyePet & Friends could have been a cute game for kids who want to play with a virtual and exotic pet.

    Like in the previous Eyepet-games you never really get the feeling that you are actually petting the animals. Yes, the animal reacts to the Move, but the interaction is very limited. It's fun to toy around with the technology for a while, but after that it gets boring. [December 2011, p.89]

    The original EyePet game had some charm and tried to do something new and interesting with AR technology but this sequel was very unnecessary,The original EyePet game had some charm and tried to do something new and interesting with AR technology but this sequel was very unnecessary, short-lived, and overall offered nothing new besides the co-op experience. But very few hours later it gets old.
