???
Epic?
Bubbles keep rising from the pond. Something lives down there.
Two ways to play
🏡 Zoo Mode
The normal game, always on
Catch creatures, carry them home and build the best zoo. Your zoo earns coins even while you're away, and everything is saved forever.
⚡ Quick-Fire
A 5-minute race every 12 minutes
Starts right in your server. Everyone starts at 0 points, so new players can win! Bring creatures home to score; rarer ones and variants are worth more. The top 3 win Super Bait.
Anything you catch during a race still goes into your zoo, so you never lose anything by racing.
In the game, the bar under the day/night timer always shows which mode you're in and when the next Quick-Fire starts. Tap it to see this explanation.
How to play
- 1
Head into the Wilds
The forest in the middle of the map. Rare creatures only come out at night.
- 2
Catch!
Walk up and press E (or tap Catch). Tap when the needle is in the green zone. Miss and it might run away!
- 3
Carry it home
It sits on your head and slows you down. Other keepers can tackle you with F, so run!
- 4
Earn coins
Every creature in your zoo makes coins, even while you're offline. Step on the glowing green pad to collect.
- 5
Upgrade
Better traps catch rarer creatures, and more pens hold more of them. Rarer creatures make way more coins.
🛡️ Safe at home
Nobody can tackle you inside your own zoo, and creatures in your pens can never be stolen.
🦶 Tackle back
Got robbed? Chase them down and tackle them back before they reach their zoo!
🤝 Giant creatures
Giants are super heavy. Ask a friend to Help Carry and they get a share... unless they betray you!
😴 Sneaky naps
Some creatures nap during the day. Look for the "Zzz"!
Creatures
13 cryptids to discover. Coins per second shown for the normal version; variants earn much more.
🔮 Coming soon
New creatures are on their way to the Wilds. Can you guess what they are?

For parents
What is Cryptid Keepers?
A free Roblox game about catching cute, made-up creatures from folklore and building a zoo. Players can "tackle" each other to steal creatures they're carrying. It's cartoon-style with no violence or gore: a tackle just knocks you over for a second. Creatures already in a player's zoo can never be taken.
Chat & safety
The game uses Roblox's standard chat and safety systems; you can manage chat and spending from your child's Roblox account Parental Controls. This website has no accounts, forms, cookies or trackers.
Random items & odds
Nothing is a paid "loot box". The only Robux item with a random result is Super Bait, which lures one creature. Its odds are shown in the game before purchase and here:
| Rarity | Normal Bait | Super Bait |
|---|
| Variant | Normal Bait | Super Bait |
|---|
Odds shown are without boosts. When someone in the server buys 2x Server Luck, rarer creatures and variants become more likely for everyone; the game always shows the current odds before you buy.
Everything that costs Robux
The game is fully playable for free. These are optional.
