About this guide and recent updates
Aniimo is a free-to-play, creature-catching open-world RPG by Pawprint Studio. You play a Pathfinder exploring the continent of Idyll — catching over 100 creatures called Aniimo using devices called Aniipods, then Twining with them to inherit their combat skills and movement abilities. This site collects the practical guides to do that well: from the first Helion-or-Lunara choice through squad building, exploration, the World Tree, and the timed Egg Heist extraction mode.
