Description
Discover Dragons like you’ve never seen before! Collect and care for hundreds of unique Dragons, uncovering their origins as they grow. From playful Cat Dragons to rare Bluebell Dragons, every new Dragon you hatch and raise brings this cozy, peaceful world to life.
Long ago, Dragons filled this enchanted forest, thriving alongside nature. Each evolved into forms as diverse as the surrounding flora and fauna. Some shimmered with glittering scales, others were soft and furry, and some even bloomed with flowers or mushrooms.
When nearby mining drove the Dragons away, fog crept in and the forest fell silent for years. Now, join Liv the Elf to lift the fog, summon the Dragons home, and help the forest sparkle with life once more.
GAME HIGHLIGHTS ✨ Summon Dragons: Help Liv mix elements, gems, and more to call Dragons of all shapes, forms, and rarities to your forest. 💖 Raise Dragons: Hatch eggs, feed your Dragons, and help them grow into magical, bonded companions. 📖 Collect Hundreds of Dragons: Discover a magical array of Dragons that evolved alongside nature. 🔮 Uncover Lore: Reveal charming legends and little-known facts about your Dragons. 🌲 Explore and Restore: Clear the fog and help the forest awaken with life, magic, and folkloric friends. 🍄 Decorate Your Forest: Adorn your forest with plants and decor that possess magical abilities to help you progress. 🎁 Missions and Events: Missions, updates, and limited-time events bring exciting new Dragons, décor, and rewards. There’s always something new to discover!
If you love Dragons, cozy collection games, and relaxing adventures, you will be enchanted by Hatch Dragons.

Very nice game, excited to see more from it. Really great ambience, the dragons are cute, and I love the sound and gameplay. Ads are optional so really enjoy it

I deducted a star only because everything in game is too expensive, if you miss an event decoration it needs 750 gems to buy it which is moderately impossible for a f2p player. Besides that game is really cool and fun with a bunch of good dragon designs

Fun but Ads will likely ruin it. The Ads run for waylay too long. I don't mind watching an add or two to play a free game. *update* Each add runs for 2 minutes for an add that then forces you to open the play app. VERY ANNOYING! There are 6 options in their roulette, each option let's say 2.30 minutes. The options for the last 3 refresh. So you could be stuck watching 15 minutes of adds or more for 5 gems. Crazy! Adds need sorting, and then the game would be good!

Art is lovely. Dragons' design is cute. Music is soothing that can lull you to sleep. Game is super relaxing without an event you need to grind. BUT the events are repeated with horrible RNG that will put you in frustrated mood again and again. Devs became greedy and made the second round of event harder to make players spend, then gas lit players about it. You need to watch ads (with their fake Xs will kick u out of game and force u to reload) many times a day to finish an event.
