Scout Mode

Scout Mode lets you find real Unity Asset Store assets using natural language. Instead of searching the Asset Store manually, describe what you need — Claunity searches, evaluates, and returns curated results grouped by category.

When to use Scout Mode

When you need a specific asset and don't want to dig through the Asset Store yourself. Describe what your game needs — Scout finds the best options for you.


Basic search

Switch to the SCOUT tab, type a description of what you're looking for, and click Search:

low-poly medieval village
third-person character controller with animations
2D platformer tileset with parallax backgrounds
particle effect explosions and impacts

Scout returns a list of real Asset Store assets grouped by category. Each result shows the asset name, price, and an Open → button that takes you directly to the Asset Store page.


Free only filter

Enable the Free Only toggle before searching to limit results to free assets. Useful when prototyping or when you don't want to commit to a purchase yet.

Free assets in results

Free assets are highlighted with a green "Free" badge in the results list even without the filter enabled — so you can easily spot them at a glance.


Tips for better results

Be specific about your game's style

Instead of "forest assets", try "stylized low-poly forest with autumn colors". The more specific your description, the more relevant the results.

Describe the functionality, not just the look

Scout understands functional descriptions too:

inventory system with drag-and-drop UI
dialogue system with branching conversations
mobile joystick controller for 2D games

Use broader terms if results are empty

If your search returns no results, try simplifying — for example, "pixel art character" instead of "8-bit fantasy RPG warrior sprite sheet".


Opening an asset

Click Open → on any result to open the asset's page in the Unity Asset Store in your browser. From there you can read reviews, view screenshots, and purchase or download the asset.

Scout does not import assets directly — it finds them. After downloading from the Asset Store, import the package into Unity as usual.
