DS Effects unveils Virtual Cow mobile game

| Virtual Cow

God bless DS Effects. We're heartily sick and tired of the endless parade of virtual dog games, but the Italian developer continually restores our faith in virtual pet titles with its esoteric selection of animals.

It's already done Virtual Monkey, Virtual Turtle, Virtual Panda, Virtual Dragon and Virtual Squirrel. Now it's time for, yes, Virtual Cow.

It's certainly moosic to our ears, etc.

The game follows the pattern set by DS Effects' other titles: you have to look after your pet cow, and if you don't, it'll starve, get sick and die. We assume there isn't a 'blue tongue' topical disease scenario, but you never know.

Anyway, we're already eager to see what's next for the developer. Virtual Duck? Virtual Sloth? Virtual Yak? Place your bets now!
