- Discover the new in-game Friends of Fauna program
- Share a photo of any animal you admire
- One selected image becomes the featured monthly puzzle
Since its February release, The Art of Fauna has established itself as a beautifully designed and contemplative mobile puzzle game. It now brings an exciting community-focused addition: the Friends of Fauna program, available as a free feature within the app.
Here's how it works. Every month, you can submit a photograph of any animal—be it a wild species, a service animal, or a cherished pet. One standout submission is selected and transformed into the puzzle for that month. For the inaugural edition, the chosen puzzle features a Spectacled Bear, as submitted by Denis B.
Alongside this, the update introduces new app icons, each dedicated to a specific community member. Valentin’s icon is a Snow Leopard, Vidit and Benedict share a Lion, Shiven has an Orca, and Thomas is represented by a Northern Gannet.
If you're just discovering The Art of Fauna, it’s a peaceful puzzle experience blending classic wildlife illustrations with varied gameplay. You can solve each puzzle visually or by reconstructing a written description—all while discovering facts about each animal.

Every image in the puzzle collection comes from 18th- and 19th-century scientific works by naturalists like John James Audubon and John Gould, celebrating the artistry and heritage of wildlife illustration. The game also supports a meaningful cause—a percentage of every purchase contributes to global wildlife conservation.
