What people like
- Hamsters are super cute
- Game helps you relax
- Breeding hamsters is fun
What they complain about
- Ads interrupt you constantly
- Matching puzzles get too hard
- In-game currency is very expensive
- Kids might see bad ads
Not a another cash grab game
This not a cash grab game but to fun :)
⚠️Stacked Game
Hamsters are cute….but in order to advance with enough points/coins to win/purchase differ hamsters, add hamsters, decorate cage/playground, etc, you’ll have to spend $(lots of it), cuz most of the advances are in a lottery form in their favor. You spend $, but get unwanted or duplicate items & impossible to win stacked stage games(even with all the add-on requisites).
Adorable! Miss hamster restaurant tho :(
Super cute game! Very nostalgic as it has every aspect except the restaurant part that I used to love in the old app.
It’s nice
Could be so much better. I wish I could pet it. And it is not the best game ever. It’s still a nice old little game. I do enjoy it though could be better so much better
評価 変更バグが多い
ハートも何回も無駄になって チーズも課金したのに届かず問い合わせた。 星5にしていたが、あまりにもバグが多いので評価を下げました もう新しい方が出てしまっているから、この旧ハムスターライフはどうでも良くなってしまったのでしょうか？であればこちらの方が絵柄や落ち着いた感じが好きでしたが移行しようと思うので教えて欲しいです
What a fun game!
I really love this game so much because it’s so fun and cute, I still love hamsters and it has my fav game on it. :D

Stamina button took my cheese :(
I love playing this game to relax, but an upsetting thing happened. I was saving cheese to buy a new hamster and while I was petting the hamsters, the stamina button appeared and I lost 8 cheese. It’s quite upsetting since I didn’t intend to use it for that and it takes a long time to earn that much cheese back. Is it possible to get the cheese back? Could you add a confirmation button to prevent this accidental purchase? It’s very disappointing.
developers please read
I’d have more positive things to say about this app if i were a kid, and if i hadn’t already been playing this for years. i got the app a couple years ago and started playing it again recently, only to find that the quality of the app has gone way down. the developers seem to have gotten quite greedy and it seems they now care more about making money than they do about making players happy. there’s way too many ads compared to how it used to be. for reference, you’re getting an unskippable ad almost every single time you finish a level (regardless whether you pass it or not). some of these ads are defective (or intentionally annoying) and feature no ‘X’ button, meaning you have to quit and restart the app to get rid of it. though even that is almost less annoying than being forced to watch five seconds of an ad before you can keep playing the game. this is all not even mentioning all the glitches in the app. the last update came almost a year ago (9 months to be fair) and it’s clear the developers have kind of just pushed this game to the back of their minds. so, in short, this is a disappointing outcome for the game i used to love so much. too many glitches, WAY too many ads. and for all the other reviewers whining about this game being bad for children due to the portrayed treatment of hamsters, grow up. it’s a game. we all have common sense karen.
楽しいけど…
小学生の頃にハマっていて今高校生になり久しぶりにインストールしました。変わらず楽しいアプリだと思います。ですが昔よりも広告が増えたような気がします。また、パズルがだんだんクリアできないほど難しくなってくるのと、パズルが終わった後に長めの広告が流れるのが少しストレスです。それとチーズが貯まりづらいのと、チーズを使う数が多くてすぐに無くなってしまう事が嫌です。あと、チーズがワンタップですぐに使えるようになってしまうのを「チーズを使いますか？」みたいにして欲しいです。間違えて押してしまった時にチーズが無くなってしまい悲しいです！
had this game since 2016
このゲームが大好きで、2016年からプレイしていますが、ただ一つ気になる点があります。それは、ハムスターの遊び場で、登録しているハムスター全員ではなく、2匹しか表示されないことです。これが唯一の不満点なので、ぜひ修正してほしいです。
广告筛选
广告太恐怖了，一些广告没有意识到有人恐虫，上来就是几个虫子，差点把手机扔出去，心脏嗵嗵地快跳出来了！！！接一下画面正常的广告！！考虑一下有人害怕虫子蛇之类的东西！！
best evr
i LOVE hamsters!!!! so cute 🐹🐹🐹💗
Cute game but…. Please make it so that the progress can be saved
The hamsters are all very cute but when I upgraded my phone to another phone I didn’t want to lose my progress so the game is just stuck on the old phone ☹️☹️☹️
うーん
初心者ですが可愛いハムスターに癒される🐹🐹、ですが、パズルがむずいです。簡単だったら良いと思います。
Dear creator of this game
This is the best game ever because you have hamsters!Im a kid that stole her Mother’s phone to just play this game.That’s it! I don’t watch YouTube or Netflix or any other shows. You should make more games I believe in you ♥️🐹🕹️🧁🐹✅
Ads are disgusting and full of p🌽n
Cant let your kids play this or they’ll see an ad for something sexually explicit. I just took a screenshot of an ad for proof. Update: the problem still persists. Even more ads than ever with women bending over, in front of the screen, showing off their thong underwear, IBS different s*x positions, etc. They don’t care about your kids, only the ad revenue. It’s pointless having any games for iphones anymore. It’s impossible to avoid ads, even in some paid games. I’m not turning my kids into porn addicted incels like all the other parents who give their kids unlimited screen access. This entire experience makes the old flip phones more appealing.
Good Game, but a little boring
Great game and vary cute but it is vary hard to earn cheese
It’s ok...
Ok, I know this is just a game but i don’t think it’s fun because however much I tell myself it’s not real, the cage is soooo small! I don’t like it
可愛い
ハムスターは可愛いけど１匹しか選べないのがちょっと残念。何匹か多動飼いしたい
Best game in world
This game so fun me 8 and the hampsters so cute me love hampsters they soooooooooooooo cute Me love this game
詐欺？
コインでおもちゃ購入したけど反映されてないのは詐欺ですか？‼️
Cute! But there are some cons.
Pros: 1. Cute hamsters 2. You can breed them 3. They’ll have full cheeks if you feed them 5 or more times 4. One you have reached stage level 13, you can visit anyone Cons: 1. Sometimes your hamsters don’t eat, drink, or run on the wheel when they’re asking you to do any of them 2. You can sometimes run out of moves 3. They can get sick if you don’t care for them for more than 3 days
Okay
I used to play this game when it first came out and overall it was fun and cute. The animation style is adorable and you can look after pets. Some problems I have found are the grammar. It has been translated from Japanese to English so many words/sentences seem wrong. You can understand it but it would look better in full sentences that make sense. I also don’t like how you don’t have many moves on the levels. Levels 30+ and up are really difficult and I normally have 1 left, or it will only give 1 star because I have completed with less than 5 moves. I also don’t like how everything is so expensive! Like, 15 cheese for another spot in the cage? Come on! I hope you could try and sort these things because they are a big downfall. I would normally play for around 5/10 minutes at the maximum because it gets boring quickly.
It’s a great game…
I wish there was more to do.
Love the game but one issue that not sure if bug (must read!)
First the game is amazing and I love playing it! Potentially a bug: I cannot place more then 2hamsters in he play area because I don’t see anymore hamsters other then the starter ones and I really think that’s not fair chase what’s the point if I got so many hamsters and I can’t even place it with me to play on the playground! Good game! Developer please!!! Tell me what’s wrong?
Needs ad free version
I got this game for my kid but the ads are not age appropriate. There should be a way to buy an ad-free version. Also, I dislike how much data is collected and possibly sold. It’s super cute though.
Not the best
Plz give me a way to get chez without money but I luv the hamsters🐹🐹🐹🐹🐹🐹🐹🐹🐹🐹🐹🐹🐹🐹🐹🐹🐹🐹🐹🐹🐹🐹🐹🐹🐹🐹🐹🐹🐹🐹🐹🐹🐹🐹🐹🐹🐹🐹🐹🐹🐹🐹🐹🐹🐹🐹🐹🐹🐹🐹🐹🐹🐹🐹🐹🐹🐹🐹
Old Version
You guy’s updated the game and it looks so bad. Like 2 years ago it was fine now its bad sorry but no
It’s okay
I honestly like cat room better because it has way more stuff to do, so I’ll probably play this game once in a while. But I give this game three stars just cuz it’s cute :)
I saw hamtaro and I found this game it’s perfect
This game is so cute and fun and I love it make another game with hamsters this game made me hamster obsessed
RIGGED
I wrote a review in the past praising how great this game is, but it’s really gone downhill since then. I redownloaded this game recently. (I use to play it in college, but swapped over to the newly released “Futurama Game of Drones” due to space issues and could only keep one at the time) and the devs have gotten super greedy. When I first played it, you could breed your hamsters then sell the pups for coins. Now they expect you to actually use a very hard to get by in-game currency to even sell them and you can only keep 5 at a time. And to make matters worse, the cheese that is the in game currency is very limited and you are the mercy of the login ones. God forbid you actually make it to the 140 stage! The game itself is rigged too forcing you to buy more moves just make it through and you HAVE to get 3 stars to get any hamsters at all. RIP going to have to save like 45 login bonuses before I can actually get any hamsters now. 😢
So cute
It’s so cute and The stage makes it fun it’s awesome anyone can say that but it A hard to decorate and get money 💰 but it’s still so good and I love it for those of who who want to get it I totally recommend this
Ok
Should be rated 2+ 😐
Good game
Good game but I think that it’s kind of just like candy land and I think that it’s to hard to get cheese otherwise good game.
Yasss
Loveeeee ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ soo much
Should be removed for inappropriate ads
My six year old son saw a YouTube video of someone playing this and wanted to get it so we downloaded it. Most times the ads are for things that kids wouldn’t care about and are boring and they just let them pass (e.g. refinance your mortgage or get new windows). One time he came over and said “uhhh Dad” and there was an ad for another app with scantily clad Asian girls dancing and then the next screen was to pick which one you wanted. I don't know from there, I shut it down at that point. Definitely a concern for an app rated 4+ and a shame as it is a cute game.
I love
I love this because they are cute and fun but there is no button to make the music go away. I have seen some people complaining about ads but I haven’t gotten any.
Not very good
I always play the stage levels but there is something you need to fix. You need to make the higher stage levels about as easy as level 30 was because this is NOT teaching people how to play it properly, this is just making people get worse at this game. That’s why I give it 2 stars but apart from that it’s amazing when you look after the hamsters!
Eh...
It’s ok, kinda boring (You should really update the grammar)
i love this game!
the hamsters are so cute!
:(
This game was fun until you added that matching game
Developer please read
So I downloaded the game and it became a little bit glitchy and what I don’t like about it is that if you don’t check on your hamsters in a few days they die sad and then you have to pay cheese to write them it’s weird
Hmmm
Could be a good game but the spelling and the grammar was horrid
Alright game
Its not the best as it runs down your battery but otherwise its good
Cute game
Very cute game I like to play when I’m bored or having a bad day the bright colors and adorable hamsters make it very enjoyable
No
This game cheats players 😒
Why I hate and love this game
One the matching game are WAY too hard even my mom can’t figure it out so pls make it easier. two the hamsters are super cut I named one of mine cheese 🧀 cuz she looks like one and bet she is a foodie. Moral: PLS MAKE THE MATCHING GAME EASIER! 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
Takes too long to earn money
... And to breed
Awesome
😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄BEST EVER
