The short version
Animal Obby is a 3D obstacle course where you switch between a gecko, a monkey, a kangaroo, a turkey and an elephant. It suits players who like platforming with a small puzzle of which animal fits which obstacle.

How it plays
You race along colourful 3D courses, timing jumps over gaps on the way to the finish. The twist is the cast: five animals, each with its own ability.
Swap animals whenever the course asks for something different. The game is built around choosing the right one for each obstacle rather than using one animal all the way through.
If a level gets too hard, power-ups such as flying can give you a push. It is also multiplayer: you can create an online lobby and play the courses with friends.

Tips
- Learn which number is which animal early, so a swap does not cost you a jump.
- When an obstacle looks impossible, the answer is usually a different animal, not a better jump.
- On mobile, move the camera with the right joystick before long jumps to see where you will land.
- Keep power-ups for the parts that stop you, rather than using them the moment they appear.
Good for, and what to weigh
Good for
Good for players who like 3D courses with a little decision-making, and for friends who want to run the same course together. Less good if you want a pure reflex game with one character.
What to weigh
– Poki shows ads on its game pages.
– Five animals and five keys take a few minutes to learn.
– 3D camera control on touch screens takes practice.
