Challenge your animal IQ! Play five addictive games that test your animal instincts, quick thinking and intelligence on your quest to populate habitats around the world. Discover amazing pictures of your favourite animals and play through many surprise challenges.Come on and prove you’re a genius!

5 different game modes – each with different patterns that keep players engaged.

Matchomatic: match animals to specific features.

Each round showcases a particular feature (e.g. eyes, noses or tails). The top screen contains pictures of animal traits, while the bottom screen has the animals that you need to match with the features.

Bonus Round: If you complete a round before time runs out, match an animal to the sound it makes for bonus points!

Scratch’N see: Find out which animal is hidden behind the question mark.

Use the stylus to scratch off part of a mask that covers the screen to reveal the animal hidden behind it. Once you have revealed the allotted amount, select the animal from the list of choices.

Creature Collector: classify animals by specific characteristics such as weight, speed, and particular features.

On the top screen is indicated the category in which you have to classify the animals (e.g. "Find animals that have fur"). On the bottom screen animals will appear randomly: select the animals that fit within the specified category on the top screen. Warning: the animals will disappear after a few seconds, so be fast and find 9 animals to complete the round before time runs out.

Bonus Round: If you complete a round before time runs out, you receive a bonus question, that if answered correctly, awards more points.

Maze Munch: Learn how to survive as animals!

Navigate a maze as a particular animal: The top screen identifies the animal, what it eats and what it should avoid (e.g. predators), and its superpower (e.g. a skunk’s spray).

Steer clear of the animal’s natural predator and complete the maze before time runs out!

Animal Expert: Show what you know! After earning the points needed to win an animal, you are asked a series of ten questions about it.

Not worth the money
I ordered this game for my daughter who is 10 years old and mad about animals. She completed the game within 48 hours. This game will be ok for a 3 or 4 year old but not older. Do not waste your money on this.

o.k. if your 5 !
this game is good if your a small child who is really interested in animals. i bought this game on a saturday, and had finished it by the sunday night. I didn`t play it intensively, it`s just so easy to do.

Kept my two occupied for weeks!
My 6 yr old is an animal fanatic and loved this and after practice even my 4 yr old could play well and completed the games as it reads out the instructions. Needed help with some aspects such as 'what is an herbivore?' but as a result learnt loads. The range of games to gain the aminals may be limited but cover all the main game playing skills and are really informative. We all got a bit competitive on holiday and played to see who could complete first. Great game for all young kids and I've even brought this for the last 3 children's birthdays my son went to! They loved it too!
