Snappo: AR Pet Turtle

Snappo is a little turtle that lives in your room through the camera – and you feed her with real fruit. Hold an apple, a banana or a water bottle up to the camera. Snappo recognises it and eats a cartoon version of it. Recognition runs directly on your iPhone; no camera image ever leaves your device. FEEDING WITH REAL FOOD • Recognises apple, banana, orange, broccoli and carrot • Bottle, cup and glass quench her thirst • Recognition runs right on the device – fully playable without an internet connection AN ANIMAL THAT TAKES TIME • Six stages: Egg, Hatchling, Baby, Juvenile, Adult and the venerable moss turtle • Around six months to the final stage if you look after her well • Hunger, thirst, cleanliness, happiness, energy and health drop in real time – even while the app is closed • At night Snappo sleeps by the clock, not by your tapping • Neglect her for long and progress slips away…
