CozyCraft and a game released in April 2026
CozyCraft publishes the game and runs a site at cozycraft.game. The first release came on April 28, 2026, and the current version is 1.2.2, updated on October 22, 2026.
The package ID is com.animal.hunter.shooting.apex. Google Play tags it as casual and teen, which fits a hunting game aimed at a younger audience.
30+ animals, ballistics, drones and traps
The hunt covers more than 30 animal species, including deer, grizzly bears, lions, crocodiles and wild boars. Each species behaves differently, so aiming is only part of the job. Settings range from African savannas to Arctic tundra and North American forests.
Shots are affected by distance, wind and timing. Rifles and sniper weapons can be unlocked and upgraded, and you pick a loadout to suit the terrain.
Beyond the rifle, you can send up a drone to scout and locate targets, or set traps along animal paths. Missions also include defending farms from predators and protecting civilians during wildlife encounters.
Android 8.0 and what to expect from ads
The game needs Android 8.0 or newer. It is free and has no in-app purchases, but it shows ads. Google Play lists eight screenshots if you want a look at the environments before installing.
