Coinciding with Bandai's new Tamagotchi series, Tamagotchi Paradise – Jade Forest, transcosmos announced the launch of Find Tamagotchi on Roblox, boosting the appeal of Tamagotchi to Gen Z and Gen Alpha players.
This brand-new title infuses the gaming experience with educational elements, and invites players to learn as they search for Tamagotchi characters and ultimately deepen their understanding of the brand. When players manage to find all of the Tamagotchis, they are eligible to claim free UGC—but they won't be able to locate all of the characters on their own, since a friend will be required to reach some areas. Along the way, players can collect stars to get help on their adventure and equip the Tamagotch plush toys they find.
