Play Animal Kingdom Online

Animal Kingdom came out for the Amiga in 1987, developed by MicroIllusions. It was one of those early titles that tried to do something different with the hardware, focusing on natural environments rather than sci-fi or fantasy. The game stood out for its attempt to simulate wildlife behavior in a time when many games were still about shooting aliens or jumping on platforms.

You control a wildlife researcher moving screen by screen through various habitats like savannas and jungles. Your main goal is to observe animals and solve environmental puzzles to progress; for example, you might need to get a monkey to throw fruit to knock something loose, or avoid startling a lion to pass safely. The game requires patience, as animals follow their own routines and won't always cooperate. It feels like a quiet, thoughtful exploration of nature where every interaction matters.
