- 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.

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
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?
Finally, the spiritual successor to Knack 2
What was the IGN score of bowsers big bean burrito?
👏
Knack is back baby!
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?
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!
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
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
Can't wait to play the remastered version
Eagerly awaiting it.
Nobody knows about this game
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.
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.
Dunkey didn't create the game
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
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
But the real question everyone wants to know is....
Did you get your free wonderbread with the game?
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
Finally a game that can surpass Knack in all its glory
Knack 1*
But knack 2 on the other hand
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.
Dunkey will be happy
If wish listed, it comes with a free bag of Wonderbread!
Animal well well well...
if you dont't have money buy it , always remeber:you can wishlist it for free!
This woman has the most satisfyingly enunciated Ps.
She has several scented candles
IGN ASMR
@@noneofyourbusiness4616is an anagram of MR NIGAS
Dunkey is going to eat your shoes for not giving this a 5/5
The devs at Wonderbread did a great job with this promotional game.
"Dev" as in one man 😂
dev.
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!!
@@narf1070Yes! It’s like Halo 2 meets Halo 3
this is the dark souls of well games
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.
Best game since Donkey Kong: Frozen Ape
The first well-type game
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
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
The PS5 finaly gets it's KNACK KILLER. This game is just like halo 2 and 3 combined.
So proud of Dunkey!! This is huge for indie games
This game is like lasagna.
Rain world vibes
Nitpicking and biased
It really has a little something for everyone
As someone who grew up with Braid and Super Meat Boy, Im beyond stoked to try this out
Kojima Productions really nailed it with this one
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 is like the time Animal Well released on May 9th -Gex
Animal well is like having dinner at Tony Gorge Orewell’s house
Can't wait for the remaster to play it!
They gave it a 12
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
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!
0:27 why does this sound like something the dunk would say ironically lmfao
This game is very strand-like
It really makes you FEEL like you’re in a well
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!
Spoiler alert...I know the ending after you find all the secrets....its a video of Dunkey's little brother breaking the record for Bowser's big bean burrito.
ah yes the very first well-like game thank you bigmode
Finally, the first well-type game
Congrats to the developers and Dunkey
It’s like Dungeons and Dragons in that way
Shouts to binkus and the unbelievably talented dev who made the whole thing as a 1 man team passion project
Yes. Knack 2.
wrong, knack 3
These IGN reviews' production value is getting better
This game is truly a well-type game
Billy Basso did everything in this magical game! Kudos!
Congrats to Billy Basso for such an amazing game!
Man I’m happy the game is great but the Dunkey memes are going to get tiresome real fast
You explaining the game sounded like Playisms "La-Mulana" series which is severely underrated.
Finished. Smart gameplay. Puzzles and gadgets are inovative. Feeling of exploring is absolutely amazing. Great game tho.
It’s probably a ten if you consider the free wonder bread you receive when you preorder
This game reminds me of cribbage night at Billy Blasso's house
Really makes you feel like Animal Well
It’s like Knack 2 had a baby with a well
Can you talk like a normal person or nah?
Fantastic review!
No.
The Game got an Nintendo Switch and PS5 release but not an PS4 version release hmm strange....
Fun Fact: This game is mostly inspired by Super Mario Bros. 2.
They had the opportunity to do the funniest thing ever
It has a little something for everyone
Billy Basso did it again boys
is it better than Super Mario 2??
Animal well is like an onion. Onions have layers. Ogres have layers.
I'll have the spaghetti and meatballs
Absolute garbage review, this game is Halo 2 meets Halo 3 and so it's only fair that the game's review score is that of Halo 2 and Halo 3 combined (which is 19.3)
Well well well
Hmm, this isnt bookworm adventures deluxe
Where is it?
Dunkey knows when you let the developer achieve their artistic vision, truly, something great will be created.
It's the best strand type game
Same rating as COD Advanced Warfare. Nitpicking & biased
Just added this to my Steam Deck list
But does it have a little something for everyone?
I’m hearing a 10 🔥
Will it surpass Super Mario TWO tho? 😂
How tf stellar blade getting 7 and this getting 9
Go Big Mode
Great review. 7/10 A little something for everyone.
Ign reviewing dunkeys game is like a full circle moment
Is this a prequel to Animal Crossing
Finally we get to see what the first Well-type game is!! Phenomenal! 9/10
This game really makes you feel like bunky
Isnt hollow knight a well type game tho?? Think bout it
A well type game to surpass metal gear?
Hideo kojima approves this
This is the greatest Well game of all time
It has a little something for everyone
Masterpiece that is better than Knack 1&2
