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
Rare IGN W for taking it on the chin when it comes to professional review bias
Videogamedunkey has light humor & it's not really drama so this verdict shouldn't be surprising
reviewers arent a company. some single reviewer isnt going to watch a dunky video and have a grudge, and remember that grudge for years until theyre one day selected to make a review of a game dunky is publishing, then actively decide to give their game a worse review then they think the game deserves. what a crazy take
To be fair. He mocked them for giving EVERY game an 8, 9, or 10 score...so they're still doing the thing he mocked them for in a way. Lmfao.
@@CaH6633 lol maybe. But what if it really IS a game that deserves an 8, 9 or a 10?
It's like Halo 2 meets Halo 3
Damm that sounds like Halo 5
Hey are you talking about Animal Well? It comes out May 9.
Facts 7/10
hey, you guys talking about animal well?
what's the context for the punchline?
This game really makes you feel like you’re playing Animal Well
7/10
Well done
It has a little something for everyone.
Personally it makes me feel like I'm playing Halo 2 meets Halo 3
Only 9/10??? She clearly doesn’t understand the franchise should’ve gotten someone who was gonna actually enjoy the game
The first ever well type game
What about Downwell?
And a well made one at that!
you mean the first ever open well type game?
isnt hollow knight based in a well as well?
Finally, the spiritual successor to Knack 2
What was the IGN score of bowsers big bean burrito?
👏
Knack is back baby!
But has the blob got amnesia?
In..... Animal Well.... the blob..... well, he got amnesia...
Amneeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeesia...
Day 1, Is it a remaster yet?
You don't even play as an animal... or a well. Rippoff. 0 outta 10
The blob got amnesia, it forgot that I'm him!
This is NOT knack 5
:(
Nope even better, it’s like halo 2 and halo 3
Its actually Knack 6 Nick, Knack, Patty, Whack adventures
It's the prequel to Knack 5, Knack 6.
It's like knack 2 meets knack 3
Congrats to bumkey on his studios’ first published game.
You mean Donsley?
What's about mankey?
But also congrats to Billy Basso for developing this by himself.
don cheadle actually
@@dalejeremiah08 actually think you mean Terrance Howard. Don't worry it's an easy mistake to make.
This game really makes you feel like its got a little something for everyone
Dis comment is a masta PIECE
@@AdiDoinStuff the first Spaghetti and Meatballs genre
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.
Aye are you guys talking about Animal Well?
Oh you know about Animal Well?
@@eoghanclark165 @yourmannick3782 you guys should play Animal Well. It's feels like you're really playing Animal Well
its like halo 2 meets halo 3
is the animal well?
@@hhere2stayis the animal
Can't wait to play the remastered version
Eagerly awaiting it.
Nobody knows about this game
Is there Bowser big bean burrito reference in this game?
One way to find out is to play the game...
No but there's a Super Mario Bros 2 reference
Its crazy the publisher is getting praise and not the developer 😂
Seriously
i'm pretty disappointed in fellow dunkey fans. such a great game, and we're repeating the same jokes.
And yet you didn't mention Billy Basso by name either.
@@helios3445Dunkey fans have *always* repeated the same 5 jokes.
Yeah but Dunkey's reach is what will really help the game take off.
It’s like Halo 2 meets Halo 3 in a perfect combination to make the worlds second strand type game.
Regurgitate someone elses vomit while you're at it.
true, but it is the first well type game
But the real question everyone wants to know is....
Did you get your free wonderbread with the game?
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
We should fit it to the next voyager and let the aliens have some fun
It makes a big difference to have a game made from scratch, vs cobbling a bunch of stuff together on top of Unity
@@imogenmcgough9689 true, Roller Coaster Tycoon is a gold standard example of this practice
To be fair, the graphics are not that sophisticated by modern standards. And there’s no music either, which probably saves a load of space.
The Cod devs/Activison need to take notes on this.
if you dont't have money buy it , always remeber:you can wishlist it for free!
Finally a game that can surpass Knack in all its glory
Knack 1*
But knack 2 on the other hand
If wish listed, it comes with a free bag of Wonderbread!
Dunkey will be happy
The devs at Wonderbread did a great job with this promotional game.
"Dev" as in one man 😂
dev.
Dunkey is going to eat your shoes for not giving this a 5/5
Animal well well well...
this is the dark souls of well games
This woman has the most satisfyingly enunciated Ps.
She has several scented candles

The first well-type game
This is like the time Animal Well released on May 9th -Gex
Animal well is like having dinner at Tony Gorge Orewell’s house
So proud of Dunkey!! This is huge for indie games
Great review, thanks to Rebekah and team for their time and efforts in producing this thoroughly informative and entertaining video. Cheers.
Finally, a normal comment! The game is fun, and great review!!
Best game since Donkey Kong: Frozen Ape
how the hell is this only 56mb??
Well, it was developed from scratch, without using big engines. It looks like it basically has no textures. So there is the answer
Most games in the 90's with better graphics than this that were 2D were only 2MB in size.
56MB is probably overkill for this but better audio, greater colour palette and animation frames would push it up.
As someone who grew up with Braid and Super Meat Boy, Im beyond stoked to try this out
You explaining the game sounded like Playisms "La-Mulana" series which is severely underrated.
Shouts to binkus and the unbelievably talented dev who made the whole thing as a 1 man team passion project
It really makes you FEEL like you’re in a well
All these comments seem to just be farming upvotes from Dunkey fanbase...Meanwhile a handful of viewers are hoping the game matches up to the pre-release ARG hype breadcrumb trail left by the creator, probably. I'm optimistic
Can't wait for the remaster to play it!
It really has a little something for everyone
Using scanlines and dark theme is so cool
Finally, a quintuple A game. Right after the first ever quadruple A game in the same year!
But seriously, this should be AAAAA because Dunkey’s the GOAT and BigMode is the publisher to watch!
The PS5 finaly gets it's KNACK KILLER. This game is just like halo 2 and 3 combined.
It’s like Knack 2 had a baby with a well
They gave it a 12
Im not watching this review....the game has "hidden" depth and want to go in blind! This game is hot people just buy it.
Yeah even though they said it'd be spoiler free there are definitely some things that are probably spoilers
This game seems really cool and I'd love to check it out but does anyone know if it has an option to turn off flashing? I'm epileptic and the firecrackers really get to me
Yes, there is a reduce flashing switch in the pause menu
@@nattofirstofthefermented Great thank you!
Finally, the first well-type game
0:27 why does this sound like something the dunk would say ironically lmfao
ah yes the very first well-like game thank you bigmode
It’s probably a ten if you consider the free wonder bread you receive when you preorder
They gave it a 9
Dunkey is not going to like that
NPC
“NO FUCKIN WAY”
IGN is a joke. Game is a masterpiece
Now this girl, is the killdest girl.
This game is truly a well-type game
This year: soulslikes
Next year: wellslikes
It’s like Dungeons and Dragons in that way
Rain world vibes
This game is very strand-like
What’s the music from this review from?
Congrats to the developers and Dunkey
Billy Basso did it again boys
Kojima Productions really nailed it with this one
Reminds me of how fez felt dense with secrets and mysteries. Or the witness
The first ever well strand gaming experience is here
Really makes you feel like Animal Well
Billy Basso did everything in this magical game! Kudos!
These IGN reviews' production value is getting better
They really made a new genre for well-type games
This opens up the possibilities of Animal Well-likes that are sure to come.
But can you play it on the Grush?
Little known fact that Big Mode was founded as Paul Beenis game by Paul Creenis. Glad to see they are still serving up masterpieces, here comes the money!
Dunkey knows when you let the developer achieve their artistic vision, truly, something great will be created.
Hmm, this isnt bookworm adventures deluxe
Where is it?
Animal well is like an onion. Onions have layers. Ogres have layers.
Just added this to my Steam Deck list
This game really makes you feel like going Big Mode
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.
My only question is - how did they make these visuals? They look incredible
Finally, a game that dares to venture into the untapped potential of animals in wells
Sooo is it a Well Like or a Well Lite? 🤔
They had the opportunity to do the funniest thing ever
It has a little something for everyone
And that's how you get into Ikon Clan, baby.
Im really excited by the first WELL game, exciting times to be a gamer
Dunkey been real quiet since this review dropped
Did they have Animal Well wishlisted?
Finallly Paul Beenis games did it again! This games really surpasses their classics like the Kill Butt franchise.
The way that traversal is one of the key aspects of gameplay makes me think that this might be the second ever “strand” game
Congrats to Billy Basso for such an amazing game!
The first Open Wells type game
Yes. Knack 2.
wrong, knack 3
A well type game to surpass metal gear?
Ign reviewing dunkeys game is like a full circle moment
but is it better than knack?
Finally we get to see what the first Well-type game is!! Phenomenal! 9/10
Playing it is like playing animal well at Billy Basso's house
can't say anything about the game (due to spoilers), but they make a 10 min video. IGN has mastered the craft of saying nothing
Is this a strand-type game?
Is this the first well Type game?
The fact that this is not only the best animal-type game, but also the first and best well-type game. My favorite part is when the donkey comes out of the well and said "Well, this animal is well." Truly one of the games of all time, Billy Basso and Dunkey are truly geniuses.
This was the first well-type game
No puzzles, no puzzles, no puzzles. - mac and charlie.
How tf stellar blade getting 7 and this getting 9
