Gotcha: Animal Identifier

Gotcha is a free animal identifier, bird identifier and bug identifier. Every photo you take becomes a species in your collection and an animal in the zoo you build.

Gotcha is a free animal identifier app for iPhone. Photograph any animal, bird, insect, spider, snake, reptile, frog, butterfly or fish and it identifies the species, cuts it out of the photo, and adds it to your collection. Then the animals move into a wildlife zoo park you build and run as a tycoon.

Gotcha turns the world outside your door into a collection game. See an animal, a bird, or a bug? Snap a photo. Gotcha cuts the creature out, identifies the species, and files it in your index. Then it moves into your park.

NEW IN 2.0: BUILD YOUR PARK
Every animal you photograph now has somewhere to live. You inherit an old zoo. Closed for years, grown over, forgotten by everyone except Kody. Clear the boulder out of the gateway, lay a path in from the gate, raise your first habitat, and move in an animal you photographed yourself. Then open the turnstiles and let the visitors through.

- Every animal in your park is one you caught in real life
- Build grassland and desert habitats, and feed your animals to grow them
- Lay paths, place decorations, and clear land to make room for more
- Keepers do the building, one job at a time. Gems finish any job right now
- Your gate keeps taking ticket money while the app is closed

CLIMB THE LEAGUES
Your crowd is your score. Pull a bigger crowd and your park climbs eight leagues, from a roadside stop all the way to a world wonder. Every week brings a new twist that the whole game plays at once.

VISIT YOUR FRIENDS
Walk into a friend's park, see what they made of theirs, and leave one park your vote for the day. Fame is given, never taken.

THE ZOO PASS
A new season every 28 days, with a free reward track you fill by playing. Stars are earned by running your park, never bought.

CATCH ANYTHING THAT MOVES
- 2,200+ real species to find, across six rarity tiers
- Snap any animal, bird, insect, spider, snake, frog or fish and get an instant identification
- The creature is cut cleanly out of your photo, right on your device
- Caught species fill in as color stickers. The rest wait as silhouettes
- Food for your animals comes from one place only: out there, with your camera

KODY SHOWS YOU AROUND
Kody is your park's mascot, and he is the one who found the place. He walks you through opening day and turns up whenever there is something worth knowing.

GOTCHA+
Gotcha is free to play. Gotcha+ is an optional subscription that adds the premium season track, a fourth keeper, unlimited catching, and a gate that holds a full day of takings. You can catch, identify, and build a park without it.

So go outside. The park is not going to fill itself!
