Core loop

Explore for an egg, pick it up, return to the ranch before its timer expires, and hatch a pet. Owned pets earn coins while you play. Mutate your current mount for more speed and income, then enter the next region to find rarer eggs.

Goal

Hatch the legendary Dragon in Crystal Grove, then complete your collection of Snail, Bunny, Fox, Horse, Unicorn and Dragon.

Failure and restart

A missed egg disappears when its return timer expires; your pets stay safe. Pause freezes the ranch. Restart ranch asks for confirmation. The embed keeps progress during the current visit; downloaded HTML can save in your browser.

Tips for a better run

  • Ride the Bunny after your first hatch, then mutate it at the violet fountain to enter Golden Dunes.
  • Mutate a Horse or Unicorn to reach the 310 base speed required by Crystal Grove.
  • Use the home arrow and minimap when carrying an egg. Sprint uses stamina and does not bypass gates.
  • Every owned pet earns coins during active play, even when you ride another pet.
  • After finding the Dragon, follow the task hint to discover missing species.
