For parents & curious grown-ups

Little companions.
Thoughtful adventures.

A guide to the eggs, the game, and getting your family started.

Friendship at your own pace

Feed and play to help your Hatchkin grow. Progress stays with your companion, and taking a break never causes stat decay or an absence penalty.

A purchase you control

Choose physical or digital Hatchkin, review the full price before payment, and check out with an email address. Creating a game account comes afterward.

A few things worth knowing

What is a Hatchkin?

A Hatchkin is a magical companion you hatch, collect, and care for in a browser-based game. Eight authored species make up the first collection, each with its own personality and habitat.

What’s the difference between physical and digital?

A digital purchase sends your claim QR and link by email. A physical purchase includes a real egg shipped to a Canadian address, with a QR for the same digital experience. Physical customers can choose an immediate claim email so they can play before the shipment arrives.

Will a physical purchase give me two digital Hatchkin?

Each purchased egg includes one Hatchkin. If you request an immediate email, the emailed link and printed QR lead to that same companion.

Can I choose my species?

Every egg is a surprise. The collection has common, uncommon, rare, and legendary tiers, with target proportions of 60%, 25%, 12%, and 3%. Gentle distribution adjustments mean individual purchase odds vary slightly. No specific species is guaranteed.

Does my child need an account to see their Hatchkin?

A valid claim link lets you hatch and reveal a companion before signing in. Saving ownership requires an account. You can create an account after buying and connect your order using the invitation sent to your email.

What device do we need?

The game runs in a modern browser on a phone, tablet, or computer and needs an internet connection. You can also install it to your device’s home screen where supported.

What about shipping?

Physical Hatchkin currently ship within Canada only. The shop shows current prices and shipping charges before you pay. You’ll receive an email when your order is marked shipped.

Where can I get help with an order?
