Why we’re building it

Your next clever move.
Their little happy world.

For people who enjoy short match-3 puzzles, expressive animal characters and beating their own best.

A familiar matching board can still offer thoughtful choices: use a move to collect a goal animal, clear a leaf or build a power for the next cascade.

We are rebuilding Wildlife Colony around an original NÚCLEO sanctuary, clear goals and a local sense of progress. Free retries and hints leave room to learn without waiting for lives.

A practical example

Make a four-friend match to create a line power. Swap it across a row of leaves, complete the puzzle and earn stars. Return later to improve that level’s best or try the new daily seed.

Little matches. Big magic.

Sixty match-3 puzzles, five habitat milestones and a daily challenge. Chase three stars and your own best score with free hints, playful original sounds and no lives to wait for.

Small moves. Big magic.

Swap two neighbouring friends to match three or more. Four create a line-clearing power; five or crossing matches create a blooming burst. Activate powers with a swap and chain their effects.

Your own little adventure

Complete score, animal collection and leaf-clearing goals across 60 puzzles. Earn up to three stars per level, revisit unlocked puzzles and improve your personal best.

A fresh daily challenge

A fixed puzzle seed follows the UTC date. Your daily best stays on your device. There is no global leaderboard or player account.

A sanctuary that grows with you

Stars unlock five habitat milestones in Your colony. All campaign progression is earned through play; no purchased lives, paid hints or paid currency.

Friends with personality

Leo, Pip, Luma, Nala, Momo and Ollie have original illustrated portraits and comic little sounds. Music, effects and gentle vibration have separate controls.

Pick up where you left off

English and Spanish interfaces, a short tutorial, free hints and a saved puzzle checkpoint. Puzzles work offline; purchases and advertising use online services.

What to keep in mind.

Progress is local to your device. There is no NÚCLEO game account or progress server. Deleting the app can remove your stars, records and saved puzzle; device backups depend on your Apple settings. Restoring a purchase restores ad-free access, not local game progress.

New 3.0 edition in preparation

Project status.

The original Wildlife Colony was removed from the App Store after a long period without updates. The new native 3.0 edition is being prepared for the existing app record. Apple approval and public return remain pending; these development images do not establish availability.

The free edition includes AdMob interstitials between some completed puzzles and an optional rewarded video for five extra moves, once per puzzle. A one-time non-consumable Remove Ads purchase removes all ads and includes the same continue without a video. All levels remain earnable free. The existing approved product is reused; Apple displays the current local price. No subscription. Production advertising and purchase validation remain pending.

Frequently asked
questions.

Can I download the new edition?

The 3.0 rebuild is in preparation for the original Apple record. Approval and public return are pending. This website does not offer an app binary.

How do I play?

Tap two neighbouring friends or swipe to swap them. Matches of three collect animals; longer or crossing matches create powers. Meet every goal before running out of moves. Invalid swaps do not spend a move.

Do I need to buy lives or hints?

No. Retry freely and use free hints. Progress through all 60 levels by playing and replay levels to improve stars and records.

What does Remove Ads include?

One payment removes every ad, including optional videos, and grants five extra moves once per puzzle without a video. It does not sell stars or unlock campaign progress. Apple shows the current local price before purchase.

Can I restore my original purchase?

The rebuild uses the original approved Remove Ads product. Use Restore purchases in Settings with the Apple Account that bought it. Final production restoration verification is still pending.

When do ads appear?

Interstitials are limited to transitions after completed puzzles, starting after three completed runs, at every third eligible completion and at least 120 seconds apart. A rewarded video is optional after a loss and grants a continue only after its reward is earned. No inventory means no interstitial delay.

Where do I change language and sounds?

Open Settings for English or Spanish, funny sounds, sanctuary music, vibration, purchases and applicable advertising privacy choices.
