Raise and Care for your Peridot
Developing a bond with your Peridots is the core aspect of the game. You will be able to interact with your Dots in various ways. You can pet them, play with them, feed them, and even teach them new tricks.
You will raise your Peridots from babies to adulthood, nurturing them along the way. Once they reach adulthood, you can breed them to create new creatures inspired by real-world creatures and mythical creatures.
Adventure Together
You will be able to go on adventures with your Peridots. As you walk, you can discover new locations and even hidden items. Peridot will recognize real-world surfaces through its AR camera, which can determine your Dots' interactions with the world.
As you explore the world on walks together, you can take photos and videos to commemorate special moments. You can even choose to release your Peridot into the wild so that it can explore on its own. But if you miss your companion, you can always summon it back to catch up and play once more.
