No Ads. No Subscriptions. A Quiet Little World. Welcome a hermit crab and build a tropical home on the sand. Name your companion, collect beautiful shells, and make each habitat your own. A SHELL FOR EVERY MOOD Discover 44 shell designs, from natural spirals to fantasy jewels. Change shells while keeping your crab’s name, age, and care history. Each habitat has its own collection. CREATE YOUR SANCTUARY Explore 12 environments and arrange 29 decorations, including plants, hides, climbing structures, pools, and five luxurious treasures. Move, resize, and layer pieces to design your home. Unlock up to five habitats with a shared coin balance. 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.
