Summary

Bat shit crazy Japanese game. Tokyo Jungle is where You play an animal in a derelict future Tokyo, where you hunt for food and survival. The story is lost on me due to the Japanese text, but it’s a solid game. Combat is easy to learn hard to master,  Eating animals level you up to make you bigger, stronger, and improve your stats. Random pickups are wrapped up in a presentation box with a bow on top!. Pickups vary from food to new clothes, yes, clothes to add to your animal to improve stats. The game has a lot of depth and while unlocking animals is quite hard, it’s still enjoyable to play the game. Any game where you can watch an elephant fight a monkey while an alligator tries to jump in after killing a giraffe is always onto a winner. Tokyo Jungle is a must-play title!

Gaming since the Atari 2600, I enjoy the weirdness in games counting Densha De Go and RC De Go as my favourite titles of all time. I prefer gaming of old where buying games from a shop was a thing, Being social in person was a thing. Join me as I attempt to adapt to this new digital age!
