Animal is a video game starring the Peperami character, voiced by Ade Edmondson. It is a point-and-click adventure puzzle game that also includes a 'shoot-em-up' component, called 'eat-em-up' since the game is set in a universe in which food products are personified.

[edit] Story

Pepereinstein, a local scientist of 'Snackland' has been kidnapped, and Peperami has taken it upon himself to rescue him.

[edit] Locations

Peperami Hall, where the protagonist Peperami lives, and where the eminent professor, Pepereinstein, works.
The night club, in which only biscuits are allowed
The Nut Baron's Blues Bar, frequented by nuts, and the particularly nutty General E. Nuts, an eccentric nut
Calorie Gallery, an art gallery that remains closed throughout the game
Tuber Towers
Downtown
The Docklands

Travel between these locations is achieved through a teleportation system called 'HITS' (the Home Interactive Transportation System), which sucks passengers into it through a television screen; and by taxi, although the taxis will never take you where you ask them to go.
