Catch and Tame Biomes Guide
All 17 Catch and Tame biomes with unlock costs, animals, and spawn tips. Includes Forgotten Depths key and 5 shapes guide. Updated for Update 16 (March 2026).
How Biomes Work
17 distinct biomes; Starter Village and Forest are free. Others cost $25K (Jungle) to $8M (Forgotten Depths). Void Realm is secret (portal). Each biome has recommended lasso power; weather-exclusive spawns (e.g. Yeti in Blizzard, Lightning Dragon on Dragon Island in Thunderstorm) require planning.

KEY: Look for a Clownfish carrying a large key in its mouth — catch it with any lasso to get the Forgotten Depths Key. Then collect all 5 shapes underwater to unlock the Baby Monkey cage: (1) Star — near the entrance tunnel wall, (2) Triangle — above the first stone archway, (3) Square — behind the second coral cluster, (4) Circle — under the round stone ledge in the second underwater area, (5) Purple Anchor — on a bomb attached to the wall in the second underwater area. Once all 5 are collected, the cage opens automatically.
