Vivarium is a browser-based creature battling game where everything has real value. Collect creatures, train them up, battle in ELO-ranked arenas, join a guild, trade on a live marketplace, and cash out when you’re ready. No app store. No download. No ads. No tracking. Like everything J&G Studios builds — we don’t sell your data. Just play.
Every creature in Vivarium is earned through gameplay. There are no loot boxes. No premium currency. No $20 skin packs. No ads between rounds. No analytics tracking what you click. J&G Studios doesn’t do that on any platform — not this one, not any of them. You play, you earn, you trade, and if you want to cash out — you can. The economy is real because the money is real.
Earn creatures through play, train them up by winning matches, and outfit them with cosmetics from the shop. Each creature has its own stats, shape, and history — build a collection that’s yours.
ELO-ranked arena battles. Pick your team, read your opponent, and outplay them. Win, climb. Lose, learn. Every win earns Bubbles — the in-game currency you can later cash out.
Live marketplace where players set their own prices. Buy low, sell high. Bubbles are real money: deposits and cash-outs run through Stripe, with the rules spelled out in the Terms.
Form a guild, donate to its treasury, and declare wars on rival guilds. The roster is small today — come now and you’re the founding members.
Things shipping next — not built yet, but on the build queue. Order subject to change.
Combine two creatures, mix their traits, hatch something new.
8- and 16-player brackets with prize pools.
Badges for first win, streaks, champions evolved.
Each creature gets a one-of-one visual identity.
