The big update · 1 December 2026
- 36 animals, each with their own voice and hundreds of lines of story
- Affection: win an animal over to unlock more of their story and grow stronger flowers
- 13 newly drawn habitats based on the animals' real-world homes
- Bestiary tiers that follow each animal's real conservation status
- No more Energy: play as many puzzles as you like
- Global win-streak leaderboard, and friends with short Friend Codes
Gold is now Coins and Diamonds are now Gems. Habitat decorating has been retired so the game can focus on the animals.
How it plays
Tap fruit. Make friends. Strike gold.

Win them over, unlock their story
Every animal has its own voice. A toucan who won't stop talking about his bill. A binturong who smells like buttered popcorn (really). Each win builds Affection, and every Affection level unlocks more of their story, inspired by how they really live and told in their own words.

Real animals, real homes
Meet them where they live, across 13 researched habitats: rainforest canopy and understory, mangrove coasts, swamp forest, savanna, desert scrub, boreal forest, rocky cliffs and more.

Rare in the wild, rare in the game
Animals visit as often as their real conservation status allows. Least Concern animals drop by all the time. Critically Endangered ones, like the Bornean Orangutan, are a rare sight. Fill your Bestiary from Common all the way to Legendary.

Grow your bond, grow your power
Match enough fruit to plant special flowers that spread across the board. The more an animal likes you, the stronger your flowers grow.

Finish their Cravings, strike gold
Complete an animal's Cravings and every win ends in a Gold Rush, where the whole board turns to coins.
Meet the cast
36 real animals. Rarer in the wild means rarer in the game.
Each animal's Bestiary tier follows its real IUCN Red List status, and endangered animals turn up less often on your board.

Made by one person
Hi, I'm Wyli.
I'm a solo game developer from the Philippines. I made Fruity Fauna myself: code, art, design and sound. I researched every animal and habitat, so each one's story is inspired by how it really lives.
