Tokyo Jungle (PS3)
Which PlayStation Plus July Games Are Worth Your Time?
Tokyo Jungle brings the thrill of the hunt to the PS3 as part of PlayStation Plus’ July lineup. Putting players in control of a variety of animals, they must simply survive in a future where Tokyo is no longer the thriving metropolis it once was. Now, animals roam the streets and it’s up to the player to work out how they’ll survive in this (literal) dog-eat-dog world.
It’s a pretty bizarre concept for a game, but it’s one that the developers have clearly run with, and it’s paid off for them. Unfortunately, it doesn’t quite nail the landing. While the game is, for the most part, fun to play, a clear lack of polish not only hinders the presentation from time to time, but also the gameplay. Despite this, if you’re looking for something new and outlandish, Tokyo Jungle is well worth checking out.
