Random Events And Species Encounters
How unexpected moments, claim prompts, and chance species encounters work.
Updated September 18, 2026
Watch your notifications
Random events and species encounters arrive as notifications. A moment that settles itself reports what it did — the reward or the cost — right away, and its notification keeps the recap so you can read it again later. A moment built around a decision shows you the scene and the options it gives you.
- Read what turned up. The moment names itself and, when it settled on the spot, says what it gave or took.
- Answer only if you are asked. Branching moments wait for your choice; everything else is already resolved by the time you see it.
- Check your collection. After a species encounter, visit the Almanac to see what you discovered.

FAQ
- What are random events?
- They are occasional moments that can arrive while you use parts of Sensipets. Most settle on the spot and tell you what turned up; a few offer a choice instead.
- Do I need to claim an event right away?
- A moment that settles itself needs nothing from you — the result shows in the toast and stays in the notification as a recap. Only the moments that offer a choice wait on your answer, and an unanswered one eventually lapses.
- What is a species encounter?
- A species encounter is a chance invitation to discover a species. Claim it from its notification before it slips away, then look for the species in the Almanac.
