User Reviews

RetroMon delivers strong nostalgia and solid VPets gameplay. Fans praise its authentic Digimon vibe, engaging battles, and an optional one-time ad-free purchase. Common drawbacks include persistent ads despite purchase, missing evolution details on Growth Chart, inflexible sleep schedules, barcode-needed local battles, and iOS-specific bugs. Overall, it’s nostalgic and engaging but hampered by ad issues and QoL gaps.

Pros

Nostalgia-driven Digimon VPets experience with authentic sounds, evolutions, and training that feels like the real thing.
Fun, engaging gameplay that fans of Digimon VPets will enjoy.
One-time in-app purchase option to remove ads, providing an ad-free experience for many users.
Battles and multiplayer battles add social/competitive depth and replay value.

Cons

Ads persist or reappear even after purchasing ad-free, with users often needing to restore purchases.
Growth chart lacks evolution requirements and Digimon names, making progression unclear.
Sleep schedule is fixed (10 hours) and cannot be shifted to fit different schedules, reducing flexibility.
Local battles require a barcode to scan, which is not readily accessible for setup.
iOS-specific bugs and store issues (e.g., ad removal not sticking, frequent prompts) degrade the experience.

So this scratches that itch from the nostalgic memories of my Digimon virtual pet monster that I used to have back when I was a child The only thing that I wish is that you could make a widget of this device that sits on your screen, so everything could be done from the home screen instead of opening the app.

As someone who collects Digtal monster vpets religiously this app has left me extremely surprised the authenticity and attention to detail is absolutely insane, especially if your someone who grew up playing with these the sounds, the evolutions, training everything feels exactly like the Real deal and I cannot praise this app enough for that keep up the great work.

The game is good while not perfect it’s still good. One thing that bugs me is you can at least put which Digimon is which. Like you can put the name of the Digimon’s species name on the Growth chart. Also can you also put how long when out Digimon will evolve into the next stage as well. Those recommendations our just nick picks I have,but still it’s a good game!✌️
