Summary from the comments

I included everything from the comments as of time of writing. Everything is in here at least in honorable mentions.

For those looking just like me, here’s a list from the comments, ordered by what piqued my interest more (depending on first impressions only):

Honorable mentions:

Thanks all for so many suggestions! Lemmy never disappoints!

Original Post

Do you know of any games in which you play as an animal? EDIT: preferably in nature, though Stray is still a really great recommendation!

I’m really looking forward to Migration.

I played one that had really good graphics, and you played as an ape, but it was so bad gameplay-wise that I gave up on it.

I also loved playing ant colony management games though I pretty much forgot their names.

Spore kind of fits the theme as well.

Dinosaur games included. Idk if I would count Jurrasic Park and Jurassic World but those kinds are welcome too.----___

    Closest ones I could think of, but still misses:

    • Okami, but the protagonist is a mythical animal
    • Tanglewood, but the fox you play with stands on too legs, and considering by the little story, it could be some fictional species.
    • The Liar Princess and the Blind Prince, but you play as shapeshifter wolf
    • Overseer on Itchio, but you play as a shapeshifter fox.
    • Unparallel, but the mice you play with stands on two legs.
    • Endling: Extinction is Forever sounds like the closest one to me, but it’s still on my wishlist, not my completed list, so can’t tell how good/bad it could be.
