A cozy little world you grow yourself. Hatch an egg, meet a creature that has never existed before, and give it somewhere lovely to live. Every hueling is one of a kind. Its shape, its colors, its markings, even the way it walks. No two players will ever raise the same pet. RAISE THEM Feed your pals, pet them, keep the tank clean, and let them nap in homes built to fit them. Care for them well and they'll grow through five stages, from a wobbly hatchling into something wonderfully strange. Halfway there, each one chooses a path: stay on the ground, or take to the sky. THEY HAVE OPINIONS Felines stalk and pounce. Rabbits binky. Weasels break into the war dance. Everyone stretches, yawns, snuffles along the ground and shakes themselves off. And when two pals cross paths they might stop for a chat, break into a game of tag, or simply bounce at each other until someone gives in. BUILD THEIR WORLD Raise hills out of the ground, plant things, and lay out a terrarium that feels like somewhere. Add a hot spring to soak in, a basking rock under a warm lamp, a post worth scratching, a picnic blanket where two friends share snacks and gossip. Light the little houses up at night. DISCOVER Fuse two pals to find a species neither of them was, each with a home built just for it. LET THEM GO, GENTLY When the time comes, set a pal free and watch them wander off into the sunset. Keep them in your vault and you can always call them back. Weather drifts through. Seasons turn. The sun goes down and the fireflies come out. Nothing withers while you're away. Time slows right down when you put it aside, so your pals are always fine when you come back... a little hungry, maybe, but glad to see you.
