Show HN: CodeBeasts – Barcode Monsters

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=sh.albe.codebeasts&hl=en_US
2•solidarnosc•51m ago
My 7 year old wanted a pokemon game he could play while we did the food shop, so I built him one, turns out my friends enjoyed it too! Point the camera at any barcode and it turns into a creature. The same product always gives the same creature, so your kitchen cupboard is basically a region you haven't explored yet.

Android only, free, no ads. Would love to know what you think.
