Play everything, free. Log in to make it real.
Every game, every feature works in both. Collector mode doesn't unlock features — it makes your pets yours: verified, permanent, and DNA-earning.
Nothing to install, nothing to buy. You start playing the moment you arrive — logging in just carries your pets forward and turns real DNA on.
Jump straight in — play the games and catch casual pets right on your device. No account, no wait.
Your verified pets load and everything syncs to your account. Your casual pets still show, side by side — nothing is left behind.
A mystery pet 🎁 joins your Dex, and from then on releasing the pets you catch earns real DNA.
Nothing is locked behind Collector — this is what logging in adds.

Every rarity has a way in — and none of them require a purchase. Here's the whole map: which way of playing tops out at which tier, and what unlocks the ceiling.
The four battle modes & their ceilings:
| Battle mode | Wins up to |
|---|---|
| 🤝 Nearby PVPMatched or challenged by a real player near you | Legendary …the first time you beat that person. Every rematch → Uncommon |
| 🐲 Server BossThe fog-gate boss, every 10th arcade game | Legendary Server-witnessed. Every game you play builds toward it. |
| 🕹 Solo vs-serverThe everyday arcade run against the game | Uncommon The grind — and it counts toward your next Boss. |
| 👯 Buddy duelA private code match with a friend | Uncommon Pure free play. |
| 📵 Laggy connectionFalls back to local play automatically | Uncommon A clean connection is what unlocks rare+ — so it's worth good signal. |
🌦 Weather pets appear only when your real local weather matches their home. One per condition per day, and only your device's GPS counts (a VPN can't fake the weather over your head). Some pets are weather-only — you won't meet them at an ordinary bait pile:
| Weather / time | Pet |
|---|---|
| 🌈 Sunshower rare sunny-rain combo | Kyberra weather-only ✨ · uncommon |
| ⛈ Thunderstorm | Elekitt weather-only ✨ |
| 🌅 Sunrise · 🌫 Fog | Felistar weather-only ✨ |
| 🌇 Sunset · 🌫 Fog | Moonara weather-only ✨ |
| ❄️ Snow · freezing | Foxeez weather-only ✨ |
| 🌇 Sunset · 💨 Windy | Batflare weather-only ✨ |
| 🌧 Rain | Omnom · Inkami · Pudde also found in the wild |
| ☀️ Hot | Chulember · Flaraton also found in the wild |
| 💨 Windy | Odwig · Dracobra also found in the wild |
✨ = weather-only (won't show at a normal bait pile — the real weather is the only door). The rest are common wild pets the weather simply brings out. 🔮 Mythic is the rarest of all and never drops from a game — it lives only at special, limited, real-world locations.
Your photos live on your phone. Here's exactly where a photo can go — and the one, brief exception where it ever reaches our servers.
Stored on your device — never uploaded.
Opens your phone's share sheet → X / Instagram / apps. The photo passes through your OS to that app; the post includes a link to your location page (a map card) — the photo itself is not on the link.
Writes a photo file to your phone. Yours to keep — it goes nowhere else.
Copies just the map URL — the coarse location, no photo.
The one path that puts the photo on our server — and only briefly: memory-only, up to 48 hours, up to 10 people you choose, never saved to disk or logged, and auto-deleted when it expires.
The only time a photo reaches our servers is the 48-hour private share you choose — and it deletes itself. Your location history stays on your device too.
Your pets are provably yours and don't vanish with a cleared cache.
Log in on any phone and your whole collection is right there.
Releasing pets returns real DNA to you instead of just in-game fur and gold.
Your very first store purchase brings a mystery pet (a common or uncommon friend) and switches your Karma Meter on.
Log in with just your email — no wallet needed to start.
