Birdey: Real Bird Card Game

About this app

Birdey turns learning real birds into a game you'll actually want to play. Every card in Birdey is a real species, beautifully illustrated, with rarity taken straight from the IUCN Red List. Garden favourites are common cards. A Critically Endangered bird is genuinely rare to hatch, because it is genuinely rare. PLAY AND LEARN Play short identification rounds and earn new birds for your collection. Old Finch, your in-game teacher, describes every species like an old birder would, in 13 languages, with field marks that teach you what to look for. You get sharper every session, without it ever feeling like homework. COLLECT AND HATCH Grow your Birdex across 400+ species and 7 habitats, from forest and wetlands to mountain and desert. Hatch eggs to add new birds to your flock, melt spare cards into feathers, and buy the exact bird you are missing. Rare mutations keep the hunt going. COMPETE, GENTLY Weekly leagues, a monthly Top 50, daily quests and streaks, Rare Bird Alerts, and World First crowns for the first player ever to spot a card. Birdey is competitive if you want it to be, and completely calm if you don't.

Friends can trade cards now: one spare for one spare of the same rarity, three a day, with a counter-offer. Every spare on both sides is on the table, and the cards your friend is missing come first. Every card shows the bird's wingspan, its sex and a crown with the name of whoever spotted it first. Feeders count fills instead of clocks, so bonus eggs bank until you use them and one tap claims the whole day. Every round now carries a pop quiz, from the bird you have gone longest without beating. Typed cards cap at two a round, the song quiz has a skip button, and song quizzes can be switched off entirely in Settings. Nail a whole round for a small chance of a jackpot in the reward nest. Plus easy practice back to mostly normal cards, bonus egg numbers that match everywhere, and many more bug fixes.

Momentum comes from crawler snapshots for the tracked storefront. “Viral growth signal” means unusually fast recent rating gains; it is an indicator, not download data.
