Littlest Pet Shop Lpso Virtual Pets – Kitty 1

We have enjoyed a few Littlest Pet Shop VIP stuffed animals. The on-line world has provided hours of enjoyment for my children. They started using it at age 5 and 7 with no problems. They were able to navigate around on their own and would laugh with delight at the different games. NOT THIS TIME. The new on-line world with LPSO is very unfriendly. The map feature doesn’t seem to go anywhere. We were unable to move the pet around and find the places on the map. We stumbled on a couple of games and then couldn’t get out of them. We gave up. The old version was so much easier to use. It is a shame they “improved” it. Be aware: there is no cross over between the previous on-line world and this one; previous VIP pets cannot be transferred over and played with in LPSO. Another huge irritation is that they “give” you “premium” access for your first thirty days. After which you have to pay $7 per month to retain premium membership or the site becomes a stripped-down version. As a parent you can’t even decide not to try the premium membership. Very rude, strong-armed marketing. No thank you.
