Jungle Squad takes the familiar trading card game and gives it a lively twist. Working with Imaginakery, we built an app where every card springs to life. Scan one and the character appears in your space, showing off their personality, moves, and attitude. It turns collecting into something far more active than shuffling a deck at the kitchen table.

Each scan adds the character to a digital collection, and players can jump into quick three-round battles using ten different attributes. Function cards change how each match plays out, keeping things fresh. Kids can pick it up straight away: point the camera, scan a card, and start playing.

A lot of attention went into making the AR behave well in the real world. The app handles shiny foil cards, wobbly hands, and uneven lighting, and it recovers quickly if a card drifts out of view. Characters were rebuilt in 3D and animated to match their personalities, so everything feels connected to the wider Jungle Squad universe.

The result is a playful mix of cards, characters, and AR that makes collecting more exciting and battles more memorable. And because the cards already bridge physical products and a digital world, Jungle Squad has clear potential for retail tie-ins and collectible ranges far beyond the initial launch, opening the door to wider brand partnerships in the future.
