What to do with pets?

[Mickmane]

Is there some benefit to evolving pets? (I thought there would be in this version.)

Having them sit on a virtual shelf, not even visible while playing, doesn't really motivate me to bother with them.

I agree with this, it would be nice if each of the pets had some form of action in the game when activated. It would make them much more interesting. They probably shouldn't have any action until evolved and then only your current "pet helper" should be able to do anything...

And the other thing - until you have enough resources it would be wonderful to have an "Evolve Now for xxxxx Pure" button when we don't have enough resources to Evolve so that we have an option on how to evolve them.

I agree with that, too. :)

Edit: There could even be duplicate abilities, doesn't have to be however many different ones, just some bonus, like one can do an extra undo per hand, or another adds another wildcard, spread around where they would fit the temperament of the pet best.

Then you can pick one that you like the look of, and have something useful. (And it should be visible while playing.)

Edit2: I thought giving them abilities was part of what's remastered. What -is- different in the remastered compared to the first version, if not that?

Sorry - I added this while you were typing...

As optional, I wouldn't mind it. (Plus, maybe I'd end up with more Pure than I have things to do with, so something else after buying all bonuses would be nice.)

Just finished grinding out the pet evolutions, I am left with 45 wood (lumberyard!), 14 stone, and 0 dust. Took just over two full runs of the main adventure, and perfecting all challenge levels, mostly in the hunt for dust and, to a lesser degree, stone.

But what's the point? What use do the pets have?

It is stamp collecting right now. We will be releasing many new free updates in the future with new original content and it's possible some of them can be pet related.

Oh, cool. :)

Btw, is it possible to repeat a hand out of a set after the set is completed, to improve overall outcome? (Repeating all of them just to improve one was something I didn't much like in the original version either.) If not, this is a feature request. :)

We are considering allowing playing specific hands out of order in a future update.
