You begin your journey in as a birder in Nearctica, a world of procedurally-generated pixel landscapes inspired by North American ecosystems. With a casual and non-linear storyline, the path ahead is up to you...
- Enjoy a wide variety of bird species, presenting diverse behaviors and challenges for identification through timing-based minigames (soaring overhead, hiding in shrubs, diving underwater, etc.)
- Challenge yourself to find the rare birds hidden in distinct habitats, migrating across the seasons
- Build yourself a cozy home on the road by upgrading your campsite, where you return each evening. Entice birds to visit with birdfeeders!
- Collect your "life list" through encounters in the field, cooperating and competing with local birders, and rising through the ranks of the Birding League
- Conduct surveys and scientific research alongside the Ecology Institute, improving your mastery as an ornithologist
- Trek to the outer reaches of the backcountry, and help the Nature Service to protect and improve the wilderness
