The classic virtual pet simulation is finally back. Available for free on iOS and Android, “Tamagotchi L.i.f.e.” (short for Life Is Fun Everywhere) brings back the first two generations of Bandai’s Tamagotchis. Everything functions exactly as it did back in 1996, with three small buttons capable of feeding, playing with and disciplining the virtual pet. If you miss the round-the-clock job of caring for a baby alien, here’s your chance to give it another go.

Fans of old point-and-click adventure games, rejoice! Blow the dust off your old CD-ROMs and get ready to experience some classic 90’s gaming. Using the free virtual machine dubbed ScummVM, games like “The Secret of Monkey Island”, “The Neverhood” and even “Day of the Tentacle” are playable on just about any operating system. Simply install ScummVM on your particular device (Windows, Mac OS X, Linux, jailbroken iOS, Wii, PSP, you name it!) and use it to read your old disk. Within minutes, you’ll be pointing and clicking like it’s 1995.
