Step 01 · Explore

A real map. Real pins. Your street.

CritterGo drops wild critters onto live map tiles centered on wherever you actually are. Walk toward a pin, get inside the radar, and it's yours to catch — then a fresh one spawns nearby.

  • 📍A real map of your streets — wild critters pop up just a short walk away.
  • 🎯Walk into the radar to make a critter catchable; they roam, so keep exploring.
  • 🧭No location access? A demo spot keeps the game fully playable anywhere.

Step 02 · Encounter

Meet it. Then time your catch.

Every critter arrives with a breed and a rarity roll. Tap the ring at the perfect moment to seal the capture — the difficulty setting widens or tightens your window.

  • Rarity from Common to Legendary decides how special the find is.
  • ⏱️A tap-the-ring timing minigame — easy, normal, or hard.
  • 📈Every catch levels the critter up in your journal.
