"Tasked with photographing one of the world's most elusive big cats, you trek
deep into the lush jungle of Southeast Asia and set up a camera trap. Back at
base camp, you methodically comb through the images it captures, identifying
monkeys, otters and finally, what you've been searching for: the mysterious
clouded leopard.

All this, without having to leave the comfort of your own home.

A new mobile game, "Unseen Empire," turns one of the largest-ever wildlife
camera trap studies into a playable experience. The idea is that by letting
players take on the role of a researcher in a real scientific study, the game
helps people to better understand conservation science."
