Desklings is a desktop pet game where cartoon characters live on your taskbar, hatching from eggs through idle progression or focused 15-to-120-minute work sessions. You collect different creature types, customize them with hats and names, and interact casually by petting and tossing them around. It's designed for players who want a low-pressure companion that rewards both passive watching and active engagement.
About this game
Tiny doodle friends live on top of your taskbar. Pet them, pick them up and toss them. Leave them running and their egg hatches on its own, or focus for 15 to 120 minutes to hatch it sooner with better odds of a rare friend. Collect all kinds of friends and give them hats and names.

Your doodle friends can now go on trips while you focus! Focus Trips Open "Send on a trip" in the nest menu, pick the mountains or the seaside, then choose a friend and a focus length (15–120 minutes) Your friend packs a little bundle and walks off the edge of the taskbar Finish the focus and they come back with a souvenir (sometimes two on longer trips) The longer you focus, the better your chance of rare and legendary finds Souvenir collection 32 souvenirs to find: 16 in the mountains and 16 at the seaside, including rare and legendary ones See them in the new Trips tab of the collection. Duplicates turn into ink, and completing a place gives +200 ink A trip focus doesn't hatch the egg. For that, pick a hatch focus (15, 25 or 50 minutes in the nest menu). Changes Eggs now hatch only when you finish a focus session, or right away with ink. They no longer hatch on their own just by leaving Desklings running. Ink drops still appear while it runs "Hatch now" always costs 30 ink The "Egg warmer" achievement is now "Hatch 10 eggs with ink" (eggs that hatched on their own before still count) Fixed memory slowly growing each time the language was changed Desklings is 20% off until October 23.
