Where the Index lives
The Index sits on the right-side HUD next to Shop. Open it after new hatches. Reward tiers inside the panel are not published — claim what lights up; requirements not published.
Full roster lives on /animals: Animal · Egg · Income · Rarity · Linked · Hatch/Unlock (14 Index animals, updated Sep 2026). This page stays how-to only — it does not replace the Index list.
How animals get into the Index
- Steal a guarded egg on the badge ladder (or named/event egg).
- Return to Your Base and hatch (Ready! / Open).
- Pen the animal so it earns cash (held pets do not pay).
- Re-open Index — discovery toasts / lit badges appear; claim rewards.
Obtain path = hatch stolen eggs. Not world-pickup. Not Lucky Blocks. Not rebirth resets from the twin game.
