Scan. Catch. Battle.

The cereal box on your counter. A tin of beans. The book on your shelf. That QR code on a poster you walk past.

Point your camera at it and something wakes up.
Nobody knows what is hiding in there until they scan it.

Every code has its own beast. Scan it tomorrow, or hand it to a friend halfway across the world, and the same creature turns up.

Most are common. Some are rare. A lucky few come out shiny.
Keep scanning and you might just find a legend!

Catch it. Name it. Make it yours.

🐾 SCAN THE REAL WORLD

Barcodes, QR codes, anything the game can read is fair game.

Your cupboard is a whole region you have never explored. So is your bookshelf. Your local shop. Every street you walk down.

You never know where the next great beast is hiding.

⚔️ WIN THE FIGHT

Wild beasts do not come quietly.

Some hit like a truck. Some poison you and wait. Some just will not go down.

Find the weak spot, send in the right beast, and make it yours.

📈 RAISE A CHAMPION

Train your favourites and take them all the way to level 250.

Push one far enough and it changes shape entirely. Same beast, same barcode, bigger and meaner.

That ordinary little beast you found on a cereal box might turn into the strongest one you own.

🏅 TAKE ON THE CIRCUIT

Six guardians. Then the champion who trained them.

One team. No swaps.

Bronze, Silver, Gold.

Win, and the title is yours.

🎖 EARN YOUR TITLE

Achievements for everything from your first catch to the things you will have to go looking for.

Titles come with them, and you wear the one you are proudest of. Your developer card keeps score, and it is yours to show off.

👋 TRADE FACE TO FACE

Sit next to a friend and swap beasts, or throw down in a battle.

No accounts. No waiting. Just you, your beasts, and the person beside you.

📱 PLAY ANYWHERE

Phone or tablet, the whole family can hunt together.

Text too small? Make it bigger. Sound and rumble not your thing? Turn them off.

Back your collection up, so a new phone never means starting over.

All you need is a camera and something to scan.

So, what is hiding in your kitchen?
