This is the smartphone app that can be enjoyed along with the artwork "Catching and Collecting Extinct Forest".

- Catch
Point the app's camera at animals and release a Research Eye to capture them.
You can also set up a Research Net at your feet.

- Collect
The animals you catch will be shown in the app's illustrated collection book.

- Release
Once you've captured an animal, you can swipe it over a location visible through the app's camera to return it to that spot.

- Research
The more animals you catch, the more detailed information will be added to your collection book about that animal.

Ratings and reviews

Doesn't work reliably: nets rarely caught anything and aiming often caught something I couldn't see (sea creatures instead of a giraffe), but works well enough to get the experience. a lot of fun anyway.

very unclear and confusing UI, can't catch anything, or place net on ground

didn't work on phone. accesses camera but does not show circle when drawing back on an animal worst hunting game ever! hindsight, maybe it doesn't work on my Android edition. idk. uninstalled.
