Animal Use Protocol Description
Representing the survival horror genre, Animal Use Protocol is an exploratory game with a first-person perspective. It is the result of work by The Brotherhood studio, which is known mostly thanks to Stasis: Bone Totem. In Animal Use Protocol we control a chimpanzee leading an escape of laboratory animals. The presence of the monster forces us to rely on stealth.
Plot
Our protagonist in Animal Use Protocol is Penn, a super-intelligent chimpanzee. Accompanied by the rat named Trip, we are trying to escape from the collapsing Anchorage laboratory station. This place of animal experimentation is haunted by the result of a failed research project in the form of a terrifying monster, forcing the escapees to move silently.
Gameplay
Our monkey protagonist has a tool for manipulating gravity and equipment with limited resources. Penn's intelligence allows not only for managing supplies, but also for crafting items. With the assistance of a rat, we explore the dark research station, discovering its history through the found audio logs.
Exploration in Animal Use Protocol is often interrupted by unplanned encounters with a monster roaming Anchorage, from which we save ourselves by using stealth.
Graphics
Animal Use Protocol runs on Unreal 5 engine.
