When Tamagotchi Addiction Took Over

A tiny egg-shaped toy took over lives—so what happens when Tamagotchi addiction gets stronger than real-life responsibilities?
From the first button taps to sleepless nights, this is how a “digital pet” obsession spread like wildfire.

When Tamagotchi first launched on November 23, 1996, it introduced a wildly addictive concept: a portable virtual pet you could carry on a keychain and care for with a few simple actions. Powered by classic “feed, clean, and check” routines, the Tamagotchi craze swept across the world—especially among kids—and quickly became a global sensation, selling tens of millions of units in just a short time. In this video, you’ll explore the rise of Tamagotchi addiction, why people couldn’t stop tending to their digital pet, and how the game-like loop of attention, needs, and rewards kept users coming back at the worst possible moments.
