Your phone is now a field tool. Point it at a bird, a beetle, a mushroom, a wildflower — Wildertag's AI identifies the species in seconds. Then fling a tag at it with the slingshot minigame, log it in your field journal, and watch your map fill up with everything that lives around you.
This isn't a nature database. This is a game you play outside.
IDENTIFY ANYTHING THAT GROWS, CRAWLS, OR FLIES
Wildertag uses AI to recognize thousands of species from your camera. Plants, animals, insects, fungi — just point and shoot. You'll get an instant species ID with key facts, habitat info, and conservation status. No field guide experience needed.
TAG IT WITH THE SLINGSHOT
Every identification becomes a tagging moment. Pull back the slingshot, aim, and fling your digital tag — physics and all. Nail the shot and the species lands in your field journal. It's the fun part of nature documentaries, minus the tranquilizer darts.
BUILD YOUR FIELD JOURNAL
Your journal tracks every species you've ever tagged. Entries fill in with details as you master each species through repeated encounters. Hunt for Royal variants — rare visual forms that serious collectors will work for. Your journal is proof you actually went outside.
EXPLORE YOUR LOCAL ECOSYSTEM
The Explore Map reveals species discoveries near your location. Find biodiversity hotspots. See what other players have found in your area. Discover what's been living ten minutes from your house this whole time.
LEVEL UP
Earn XP for identifications and tags. Level up your rank and your mastery of individual species. Complete daily and weekly challenges. Build streaks. Unlock achievements that require real effort.
TRAINING MODE
Practice species identification without being in the field. Study, test yourself, and level up your knowledge so you're ready when you spot something unusual on a trail.
