My Talking Tom is part of the Talking Tom And Friends game series developed by Outfit7, a Slovenian studio. The game was released in November 2013, marking the fourteenth virtual pet game in the series. My Talking Angela was a similar app placed side by side with My Talking Tom and was released in December 2014.
Some of the virtual pet app series released after My Talking Tom include My Talking Hank, released in December 2016; My Talking Tom 2, released in November 2018; and My Talking Tom Friends, released in June 2020. All these games have distinctive features and additional accessories that make them better in some way than one another.
My Talking Tom Gameplay
The game is about a virtual cat named Tom. There is a game feature that allows you to change the name of the cat as you desire. The goal of playing the game is to care for the anthropomorphic cat from a baby kitten stage to a full-grown tomcat. All you need to do is interact with Tom using the navigations and control features set up in the game. Part of these interactions includes feeding him, helping him use the bathroom, having fun with mini-games, and other activities are done in real-life. Tom’s great feature is the ability to repeat the exact words you say for about 25 seconds. To do this, when you enable to feature, you will speak into your device’s microphone. Tom will then use a synthesized voice to repeat the words.
The game gets even better with in-app purchases, social media connections, and in-game currency. You can visit “Tom’s friends” on Facebook. You can also add extra features and additional accessories to the game, which allows for more interactions with Tom. These extra features can be skins, outfits, and customizations you can use on Tom. It’s all about having a nice experience with Tom by helping him grow.
It’s All About The Adventure For Me
Playing My Talking Tom has been so much fun and adventurous for me. There is an awesome feeling that comes with playing the game, and I bet you will experience it too. While adventure hits differently for many people, My Talking Tom will not let you down. It stands out as one of the many games that is actually worth the hype. Another thing that catches my fancy in the game is the specific activities. All these sum up the personalized adventure format the game is built on.
A Simple Life With Tom
As part of the adventure the game provides, you get to live a simple life. From my years of playing different games, I have discovered one thing. And that is that you do not have to do many things before you enjoy any game. Although there are games with so many activities and tasks, it does not make them better than those with a few tasks. In some cases even, those games may turn out to bore you. My Talking Tom’s idea is simple gameplay, meaning you do not have to stress yourself over completing tasks or missions. Sometimes all I need is to simulate an easy life, and the relationship between Tom and I helps me achieve that.
As An Owner And A Mother
Your adventurous life with Tom just got better with the interesting features that combine specific parental upbringing interactions. My Talking Tom is more than just interacting with Tom. There is a connection that forms a sense of motherhood which I enjoy so much whenever I play the game. As much as you interact with Tom to perform specific functions, you are also grooming him. As a result, I always feel I am in charge of Tom’s life and must do everything possible to help him grow. For instance, I need to feed him, clean him up, and visit his friends. It is about bringing him up the way I want, and that gives me total control of the game.
Virtual Interaction For Real-Life Social Connection
Whether you are a mother or not, you can transfer your interactions with Tom and the game to your real-life social dealings. I consider it an avenue to develop your interactive social skills. For instance, by communicating instructions to Tom, you can develop how you interact with others. And since Tom follows my instructions, I always feel there must be a way to connect with others to see them accept my opinions. With that mindset, I go all out to connect with people around me.
Final Bits On My Talking Tom
My Talking Tom offers a chance to direct existence and living, even if it’s only virtual. But the relationship you form with Tom can influence your real-life approach to people. Many game features can keep you engaged for hours. With in-game currency, you can purchase accessories and extra features that will make your experience with the game more beautiful. The game gives you a sense of responsibility toward something, your virtual pet, so you know you have to display how much of a caregiver you are.
