Stephen Totilo of Kotaku fame dropped by an EA press event last week showcasing many upcoming titles. One of the titles he spent time with is SimAnimals Africa, slated to hit store shelves next Tuesday. For the most part, he left the demo on a high note. Here’s a snippet from his preview, found here:
The game has players trying to take control of animals and restore balance to the Tree of Life. You do this, I was shown, by, say helping a crocodile eat gazelles, an action that I could see interesting more than just the kid audience. The game’s superbly-named executive producer Sam Player showed me how he could swim a croc toward some cute gazelles, and almost snatch one in its jaws. He missed, but he found easier prey in deeper water where a zebra was taking its final swim.
