CARE AND PLAY Feed your crab, mist the habitat, refresh freshwater and saltwater pools, and clean the glass. Tap the sand to play: ten taps fill playfulness. Each fresh pool adds 12 happiness for 24 hours. Optional feeding reminders help you keep a routine. A PEACEFUL POCKET COMPANION Enjoy a silent game with no ambient sound. Earn daily rewards, save terrarium photos, and use optional iCloud backup. Loading a backup replaces local progress; use one device at a time. Coins can be earned through play. Optional consumable coin packs are available through Apple in-app purchases. There are no ads or subscriptions. Care continues while the app is closed. If care lapses, the worn shell is lost. A free recovery meal brings your companion back in the starter shell; buy the lost shell again for 10% of its original coin price. Other collected shells remain yours. This is a fictional virtual-pet game. Its habitats, fantasy shells, and care timers are not instructions for real animal care.
