User Guide · Wild Hybrids

Getting started

Wild Hybrids is an AI-powered creature-breeding game. You collect base animals, cross-breed them with AI to produce unique hybrids, and animate them into shareable videos.

Quick start (3 steps)

Step 1 — Add animals: Go to the Library and click + Add on at least 2 animals you like. They land in your Collection.
Step 2 — Breed a hybrid: From your Collection, click an animal, then click ↺ Breed. Pick a second animal and hit Generate to have the AI crossbreed them.
Step 3 — Share: Generate a cinematic background scene and share it to the feed.

Tip: About 70% of generated creatures are junk, 20% are decent, and 10% are amazing. You only pay a token after reviewing the result and deciding to keep it — rejects are free.

Library

The Library is the catalogue of all base animals available in the game. You can search by name and filter by rarity.

Rarity tiers

Rarity	Description
Common	Everyday animals. Good for learning the game.
Rare	Less common, notably stronger.
Epic	Powerful specimens.
Legendary	The rarest and most impressive creatures.
Aggressive	High-energy animals with a fierce appearance.
Exotic	Unusual creatures with striking looks.

Once you add an animal to your Collection, its card shows ✓ Owned and cannot be added again.

Collection

Your Collection holds every animal you own — base library animals and AI-generated hybrids alike.

Creature detail page

Clicking any creature opens its detail page where you can:

Rename a hybrid (click ✎ Rename).
Generate a background — a cinematic 16:9 AI scene featuring your creature in a chosen environment.
Generate a video — animate the background scene into a short clip (requires a background first).
Breed — start a new breed run using this creature as parent A.
Share — post the background or hybrid image to the community feed.
View fight log — all arena battles this creature has fought, with results.
Remove — permanently remove the creature from your collection.

Lineage

Hybrids show their full lineage tree (up to 2 generations), so you can trace exactly which base animals were combined to create them.

Breeding

Breeding combines two of your animals using Google Gemini AI to generate a new hybrid creature with a unique image, name, description, and rarity.

How it works

Go to Breed and select two animals from your collection.
Click Generate. The AI produces 4 variant images in parallel — pick the best one.
After choosing a variant, you can Keep it (costs 1 token) or Discard it (free).
Kept creatures appear in your Collection immediately.

Quality advice: Combine animals that are visually distinct — a snake and a peacock, for example, tend to produce more interesting results than two similar mammals. Higher-rarity parents can produce higher-rarity offspring, but it's not guaranteed.

For a full breakdown of breeding mechanics see the Crossbreeding Guide.

Arena

The Arena is a turn-based combat system where your creatures fight other players' creatures. Battles are fully deterministic — the outcome is decided by stats and a fixed seed, so replaying the same match-up always gives the same result.

Key points

Select one of your creatures, then the arena finds a random opponent from the community pool.
Battles play out automatically — watch the round-by-round log.
Wins and losses are recorded in each creature's Fight Log.
The Top Warriors leaderboard on the Home page shows the 9 creatures with the most all-time wins.

For stat definitions, damage formulas, and strategy tips see the Battle Guide.

Sharing & the Feed

The Home feed shows posts from the entire community — images and videos of their creatures.

How to post

Open a creature's detail page and generate a background (and optionally a video).
Click the ↗ Share button to open the post dialog.
Add an optional caption and choose whether to share the image or video.
Hit Post — your creation appears in the community feed immediately.

Likes & comments

You can like any post by clicking ♥ and leave comments on any post. You can delete your own posts and comments at any time.

Tokens

Tokens are the in-game currency used to keep bred creatures. Each kept hybrid costs 1 token. Discarded variants cost nothing.

Daily allowance

Every account gets a free daily token allowance that resets every 24 hours. Check your remaining tokens on the Profile page.

Purchasing tokens

Additional tokens can be purchased from the Tokens page (coming soon). Purchased tokens do not expire.

Tips & common questions

Why do some breeds look terrible?

AI image generation is probabilistic. Roughly 70% of results won't be what you hoped for. Because you can discard for free, the strategy is to keep breeding until you get something great.

Can I breed a hybrid with another hybrid?

Yes. Any two creatures in your collection can be bred together, including hybrids. Multi-generation hybrids often produce the most unusual results.

Does rarity affect battle power?

Yes — rarity determines the stat range each creature is rolled from. A Legendary creature will always out-stat a Common in raw numbers, but the deterministic battle system means every fight is still predictable from the stats.

How do I get more creatures in the library?

The admin team adds new base animals to the library regularly. Keep an eye on the community feed for announcements.
