How it feels

A quirky, story-driven text adventure where you solve puzzles with a sarcastic attitude and pseudoscientific creature creation.

What players say

Players describe Cryptozookeeper as a quirky interactive fiction game that mixes old-school text adventure with a cryptid-collection and fighting minigame. The writing is witty and dark, but the RPG combat is repetitive and the puzzles are challenging, making it best for genre veterans who can handle its rough edges.
