Animal Well Review

Watch our Animal Well review! Reviewed by Rebekah Valentine on Switch and PC, also available on PlayStation 5.

Animal Well is a veritable feast of brain teasers that’s far more concerned with twisting your mind into knots than any grueling platforming challenges. It’s lovely to look at thanks to gorgeous pixel art and dynamic lighting, and an excellent use of haptics and well-tuned physics systems make it fun to touch, too. The steadily unlocked toybox of tools thoroughly rewards play, curiosity, and experimentation for hours upon hours after the credits roll. Though that late-game maze of mind-teasers might grate once in a while if you’re reluctant to ask for help, the massive onion of Animal Well’s secrets remains dense, clever, and thrilling even when you’ve peeled back as many layers as you think you possibly can… and then peeled a few more beyond that.

IGN giving a game dunkey published a 9 after he's mocked them for years is sort of endearing to me, they show no hard feelings

[docicusalignjon]

Finally, the spiritual successor to Knack 2

[Baysck]

This game really makes you feel like you’re playing Animal Well

[Hexen_Wulf]

I'm so proud of Billy and Dunkey, their first game at Big Mode got a 9/10! And it's not even a remake.

[boobootittleman]

Congrats to bumkey on his studios’ first published game.

[treyjohnson]

This game really makes you feel like its got a little something for everyone

[beazyb]

Its crazy the publisher is getting praise and not the developer 😂

[acediaxxiii]

Can't wait to play the remastered version

[adamlassiter]

I'm really bothered by how many of you in the comments and every internet tabloid is praising Dunkey and not the Developer. His name is Billy Basso, he developed an entirely new game engine for this and created the entire game by himself. Dunkey is a publisher, typically they take the financial risk, they market the game, provide quality assurance among many other things. But just because it's his money, it's not his game.

[Caninemuffin]

It’s like Halo 2 meets Halo 3 in a perfect combination to make the worlds second strand type game.

[GTNOfficial]

Can we talk about how this game is somehow only 40mb and requires only 1gb of ram? What an incredible technical feat to squeeze so much into so little

[carleykim]

But the real question everyone wants to know is....

Did you get your free wonderbread with the game?

[mentorassassin]

Finally a game that can surpass Knack in all its glory

[神山进-rb]

if you dont't have money buy it, always remeber:you can wishlist it for free!

[bsigns]

Is there Bowser big bean burrito reference in this game?

[yourmannick]

Aye are you guys talking about Animal Well?

[OmeletteMcDomelette]

The devs at Wonderbread did a great job with this promotional game.

[Kean_Bean]

If wish listed, it comes with a free bag of Wonderbread!

[AlbertAlbertB.]

Dunkey is going to eat your shoes for not giving this a 5/5

[HydraTower]

This woman has the most satisfyingly enunciated Ps.
