"QRuppets" is a mobile collectible character game where you discover unique felt puppet characters by scanning QR codes in the real world. HOW TO PLAY Launch the app, and aim the scanner at any QR code (on a receipt, a business card, a product package, or anywhere else) to scan it. Each scan reveals a random character from a growing collection of unique puppets. Every character has a distinct personality, backstory tidbit or comical trait, and most of them have a preferred bait. FEATURES • Over 50 Unique Characters: From Kev the garbage collector to Dr. Nugg, each hand-crafted felt puppet has its own look, traits, and comedic personality. • Gallery: View your collection, see which characters you've discovered, and track your progress toward collecting them all. • Unique Mint Numbers: Each discovery is serialized based on when you found it. Earlier scans yield lower mint numbers. Be the first to find new characters by scanning new QR codes as updates are released. • Bait System: Use bait packs to influence which characters you discover. Each character has a preferred bait type. • Premium Scanner: Remove the cooldown between scans for unlimited discovering, enjoy an ad-free experience, and get bait hints on undiscovered characters in your gallery. • No Account Required: Start playing immediately with automatic account creation. • Cross-Device Sync: QR code import/export lets you move your collection between devices when you upgrade your phone. • Regular Updates Planned: New characters and features added over time. BAIT TYPES • Coffee • Soda • Daddy's Apple Juice • Doughnut • Yard Work • Party Powder • Cancer Leaves • Crime Crystals Premium Scanner (one-time purchase) removes scan cooldowns and ads. It also reveals which undiscovered characters prefer which bait. Bait packs are consumable items that narrow down the draw lottery to find a character that prefers the bait you place. Each bait pack contains 5 uses. Some scans will draw a character that ignores your bait and you will get to use it on a future scan. Characters have activities and occupations that reflect real-world archetypes with a whimsical puppet twist, from pizza delivery drivers and doctors to social influencers and taxidermists. They also lack morals and stuff.
