Welcome to FOLKéMON SNAP!

Many strange creatures are believed to inhabit the wildlands.

As a wildlife photographer with a history of capturing the never-before-seen, 
you have been getting requests from agencies all over the world to prove their existence once and for all.

Venture into the wilds with your camera, Folkédex, and some bait, and see for yourself!

Controls:

In Overview Screen                         In Biome Screen   
- Mouse Control- Mouse Control
- Press [Q] to enter and leave PHOTO MODE.
In PHOTO MODE: Press [SPACE] to take a PHOTO.
Press [F] to read your FOLKéDEX.
Press [E] to access your BAIT.
Press [G] to see your GALLERY.

How to play:


As you enter the wilds, time will start ticking through MORNING, NOON, and NIGHT.

REQUESTS for pictures will start to come in. They may ask for a certain CRYPTID(S), in a certain BIOME.

Provide enough evidence, and win! 

If you fail five REQUESTS, you lose your reputation and the game.
(you won't fail incoming requests if your page is full)

Read your FOLKéDEX to find out which CRYPTID is found in which BIOME, and what TIME they are active.

If awake they may be lured, even outside their home BIOME, with the appropriate BAIT.


When in a BIOME, you have access to several items:

CameraPress [Q] to enter and leave PHOTO MODE.
In PHOTO MODE: Press [SPACE] to take a PHOTO.
GalleryPress [G] to access your last four PHOTOS, and drag them to REQUESTS
to fulfil them.
FolkédexPress [F] to read up on the CRYPTIDS to know how to find them.
BaitPress [E] to Set out BAIT to lure a specific CRYPTID. If awake,
it may lure it even outside it's home BIOME.

Thank you very much for playing our game!
