Wildex – Pokémon Go for real wildlife
Dear HN, My wife and I both love nature and have always wanted a Pokémon go style app, to collect and learn about different species we find. All the usual species identifying apps were didn’t feel fun enough, so we designed and built one together! Would love for you guys to give it a try and share any thoughts you have.
Wildex – Pokémon Go for real wildlife launched on February 16, 2026 with 106 votes, #330 of 16,627 launches that month and more than 95% of that year's launches.
In plain words
Wildex is a wildlife identification app that combines species collecting with educational content. Users photograph plants and animals they encounter in nature and build a collection while learning about different species. Designed by a couple who found existing identification apps lacking in engagement, it gamifies outdoor exploration for nature enthusiasts and casual hikers who want to make wildlife spotting more interactive and rewarding.

Hello my name is Ben Ward for the past 3 years I have been remastering the financial game Wall Street Raider created by Michael Jenkins originally on DOS in 1986. It has been a rough journey but I finally see the light at the end of the tunnel. I just recently redid the website and thought maybe the full story of how this project came to be would interest you all. Thank you for reading.
