How To Play
The game is fundamentally easy to play, although, depending on your goals within the game, the accomplishment of attaining your goals may not be quite so easy.
The game can easily be broken down into 2 parts. "Collecting", and "Growing".
Collecting
The core to the game is collecting creatures. Without collecting creatures, you cannot "grow" creatures. Creatures in general are easy to collect. When you are logged into the game, go to the "Zones" and pick a zone to collect from. There are 6 zones from which creatures can be collected.
Zones
The 6 zones that are available to have creatures collected from them are; Arantia, Banador, Maghera, Ngavila, Vargoth, and Exile Isle.
The first 5 are where the wild creatures are found. The creatures when created appear in one or two of these 5 zones. And can be searched for and collected.
The last zone, Exile Isle, is for abandoned creatures. Creatures that people have collected or bred, and no longer want, can be abandoned. Once the creature is abandoned it will appear in Exile Isle for someone to collect. Exile Isle can potentially hold a lot of creatures, or it can hold none.
Trading
Trading is the other method of collecting creatures. There are 2 ways to trade. Either creating the trade, or creating an offer.
If you are creating a trade, then you need to go to the Trade menu option in the game, and then click on Set Trade, and pick the creature that you wish to trade. Then give people your trader link, and they can make offers. When you have some offers, you can select which offer you wish to accet, and the trade is then completed.
Alternately, if you wish to make an offer; go to that person's trader link. Select the creature that you wish to make an offer on, and then offer the creature that you wish to trade. If the person accets your offer, then the trade will be completed.
Growing
To grow your creatures then you need that creature to collect views and unique views. There is also a time component. When you have collected sufficient views and the time restraint has been met, then the creature will move onto the next stage.
Gaining views can be as simple as using one of the Fansite's that are made by the players, or by simply adding a link into forum signatures, using LiveJournal, or any other form of social media that you use to get people to look at your creatures.
Stages
There are 4 stages to each creature. And most creatures have their own unique starting method.
| Stage 1 - This is the infantile stage. This is how a creature starts. |
| Stage 2 - This is the youthful stage. This is the stage before a creature gains its gender. |
| Stage 3 - This is the juvenile stage. This is when a creature develops it's gender. Some creatures are gender specific, some are either. |
| Stage 4 - This is the adult stage. This is the final stage and how a creature will finally look. |
Views
People speculate and people conjecture as to how many views and unique views are necessary to grow a creature, unfortunately the truth is hidden away in the code somewhere. In this game, more is better.
Time
There are certain time constraints in this game.
| Stage 1 to Stage 2 - Must have completed at least 3.5 days, or have less than 3.5 days remaining. Time is reset to 7 days when it reaches Stage 2. |
| Stage 2 to Stage 3 - This happens part half way between Stage 2 and Stage 4. |
| Stage 2 to Stage 4 - Must have completed at least 3.5 days, or have less than 3.5 days remaining. |
| Stage 3 to Stage 4 - The time remaining must be 3.5 days or less. Once Stage 3, there is not long to go. |
