The Tama & Earth EXPO is a collection of islands located on Tamagotchi Planet. It was constructed as a means to help the Tamagotchis learn more about the Earth and the different human cultures. The location was featured on TamaTown during the release of the Tamagotchi Connection Version 5 and Tamagotchi Connection Version 5 Celebrity.
Features[]
Like the TamaTown website, the Tama & Earth Expo allowed players to connect their Tamagotchi Connection Version 5 and Celebrity to the site to earn prizes and gotchi points for their Tamagotchi. Players could visit the pavillions to play games and collect items. Upon starting a game or entering a shop, the player needed to select the connection icon on their Tamagotchi device and select the PC option. A ten digit password would then appear on screen, acting as a log in code for the website. After playing the game or buying an item, the website would give a password to be entered into Tamagotchi device. The Tamagotchi would receive the bought item or gotchi points earned.
Pavillions[]
The EXPO is divided into five islands, known as Pavilions. There is one general Pavilion in the center for recreation, and the other four represent a different region of the world where Tamagotchi toys are released. This includes the USA, Japan, Asia/Oceania, and European regions. Each country pavilion has a city hall where players could take surveys and see results compared to other countries and a Gotchi Employment Center which has four games.
Central Pavillion[]
The Central Pavilion is largest island and sits in the center of the area. It contains the Gotchi Amusement Park to the left, various shops in the center pathway, and to the right were the International Shop, Harmony Theater, and Ecology Pavilion.
