SAN FRANCISCO: The makers of Pokémon Go want to develop their own new game world next, instead of just bringing old Nintendo characters to life on smartphones.
The new Peridot app recalls the once popular Tamagotchis: You need to take care of, entertain and raise animal figures. Unlike the Tamagotchis, however, Peridots cannot die even if they are poorly cared for, as the developer company Niantic emphasises.
