Then the prey grows into felines, even other dogs. You hunt small animals first-helpless rabbits, birds. The poor Pomeranian’s run out of dog food, so it’s time to scurry off into the literal concrete jungle and fend for itself. The first official chapter in the story mode for Tokyo Jungle begins with a Pomeranian. "It’s time to wake the wild beast within the Pomeranian." There are leftover items from when humans were around, like water bottles, magazines, miscellaneous canned foods.
Humanity in Tokyo Jungle is something the animals hardly bat an eye with. And given the premise of the initial game at hand, the animals won. Slowly, animals turned more violent, ruthless, longing to take back the Earth that was taken from them by humans. It all started with a zoo: as animals grew restless, and even domestic animals at home started acting more wild than usual. The game’s story, told via scattered archives in Survival mode and chapter-based missions in Story mode, presents a world where due to mysterious circumstances, humans died out. Tokyo Jungle, instead of relishing in the loneliness of its abandoned city, populates it with new life in its stead. We’ve seen the once bustling towns now completely vacant. We’ve seen the vine-covered skyscrapers tilting in the distance as its structure falters. Even among the best examples, all the areas are intrinsically familiar. Even in Nier: Automata, which envisions a city of machines and androids battling for eternity, or The Last of Us, where humans battle zombie-like “infected” across a nature-overrun America. Post-apocalyptic settings are nothing new in video games. The white Pomeranian is available as DLC. Tokyo Jungle presents a Tokyo that never really died: it just got new residents to replace the humans. There’s a baby chick running the neighborhood of Dogenzaka, and elsewhere down south, there’s an entire area overrun with vicious domestic cats. The animals, despite speaking no languages, have established their own hierarchies some determinant on their position on the food chain, others in their sheer strength in numbers.

There’s something haunting about seeing the city overrun with beasts, where it’s deserted in the ways humans left it, but full of life for the first time for the animals’ once under the humans. The city itself is still eerily quiet, with soft electronic music pulsing in the background as animals frolic around, usually minding their own business-or initiating a battle to the death. And while I’ve changed in virtually every way, Tokyo Jungle hasn’t. The last time I visited Tokyo Jungle was five years ago. I’ve been wanting to revisit Tokyo Jungle for a while now-especially after playing through Nier: Automata, for reasons I’ll explain in a future column-and realized, before E3 season kicks into full gear, it’s now or never. And then as word of mouth and internet hype swamped the niche arcade title, the game ended up being localized for the West. When Tokyo Jungle first released in 2012 in Japan, it was one of the few games where I knew immediately I had to import it. Surviving just fine among the loose tigers, domestic felines, baby chicks, and more. But in Tokyo Jungle, the Pomeranian is there in the post-apocalypse, just like every other animal. When you think of the animals that will reign supreme when the apocalypse wipes out humanity, the last thing you think of is a small fluffy puppy. Currently, Caty’s revisiting Tokyo Jungle for the first time in five years, an arcade survival game that takes place in post-apocalyptic Tokyo.

Its up to you which one you'd like to follow (if not both) and how you like to play.Field Notes is a series of diaries by Caty McCarthy, exploring the personal stories that emit from the games we play over extended periods of time, and beyond. These are usually major differences (for example, I believe an axis deer unlocked a gazelle and a chick).
You unlock the first one, complete it, it moves onto a second challenge, complete that and you'll have unlocked two animals. During a certain animals challenge there will be two. This first appears early in the grazer tree. Get yourself killed right away or walk away and let the animal starve and switch to the new animal.Īlso, sometimes the tree splits. Just keep playing, focus only on those things and you'll be able to knock out an animal in 10-15 minutes tops. For example, to unlock a cat, you need 2 challenges+1 generation change.to go from a Tosa to a Wolf, it required 2 challenges+2 generation changes.to go from a Hyena to a Cheetah, it requires 4 challenges +2 generation changes. As the animals get stronger or better, the amount required to get them becomes more difficult.
