MatchyGotchy Z

MatchyGotchy Z is a digital pet game that combines pet-raising simulation with idle clicker mechanics. You care for regular stars and help them become Rocket Surgeons, among the few stars able to transform energy into magic. There are eight pets to raise, along with NPCs who keep you company in Starbase.

Raise your pets

You shape each pet’s personality through gameplay rather than item choices or goal-based milestones. Pets can develop interests such as singing or working, and their natural skills can qualify them for jobs. You decide how to train them.

Explore the Matchyverse

Use Zoot as currency to visit places such as Zootlandia, a money trade house, and MatchyMart, a galaxy-wide monster store. The laboratory has expanded with multiple wings, and the game adds the legendary Space Water Park BIG X, belonging to Xanadu. New characters include Stardust, Starbase’s linguist; Era, MatchyMart’s clerk; and Zee, Zootlandia’s analyst.

Activities and customization

You can play 10 customizable games, including cups, hackysack and cards. MatchyMart lets you buy food and change outfits and console colors, while Zootlandia lets you save or invest Zoot. The MatchyDex is an archive for tracking new characters and items and learning about them.

Additional features

The game includes over 40 achievements, leaderboards, cloud saves and Steam cards when available. Its Early Access schedule includes community support, with opportunities to vote and comment on content before it goes live and exclusive access through Discord.
