## What is Cryptid Pets?

Cryptid Pets is a cozy virtual pet game in the spirit of the classic keychain pets. Feed your cryptid, play mini games with it, and tuck it in to sleep under a starry night sky. Each pet gets hungry, bored and sleepy in real time, and the campsite gets messy, even while the app is closed, so check in often.

MEET THE CRYPTIDS
• Mothman, from a starlit meadow near Point Pleasant
• Nessie, splashing on the shore of a moonlit Loch Ness
• Bigfoot, wandering the misty redwoods of Bluff Creek
• The Flatwoods Monster, under a hovering UFO in the West Virginia hills
• Chupacabra, in a Puerto Rican rainforest full of chirping coquí frogs
• The Jersey Devil, deep in the Pine Barrens (watch for eyes in the trees)

HOW TO PLAY
• Feed: keep the food meter topped up
• Play: catch glowing fireflies with any cryptid, or play your cryptid's own unique games as they grow
• Clean: sweep up crumbs, leaves and litter before the campsite gets messy. A tidy camp keeps your cryptid happier
• Sleep: tuck your pet in to restore its energy while the campfire burns low
• Grow: every cryptid starts as a baby. Keep it fed, played with, rested and tidy, and after some good care, it grows up into its adult form, with a little celebration to match. Growing up unlocks a third mini-game for that cryptid and earns it a gold star in your Field guide:
• You can also name your pet! Give each cryptid a nickname by tapping its default name
• Tap your pet for a wave and a little heart

This game has no ads. It requires no accounts. There is no data collection. Even better, play from the train as it works completely offline.
