Zoonomaly
Zoonomaly is a puzzle based survival horror game set in a condensed open world zoo map. The game is non-linear so any approach can be taken to achieve completion.
Welcome to Zoonomaly
Numerous monster sightings have been documented across the country over the past year. After extensive research, the source of these monstrosities has been triangulated somewhere in a local zoo. You have been tasked with entering this mysterious zoo, finding the source, and putting a stop to it. To accomplish this task, you must collect 10 key cards by solving puzzles throughout the zoo. Once all 10 are collected, you will be able to find the source of the monster anomalies. You have been supplied with a powerful flash lamp. May it give you light on your journey and a forceful deterrent to monsters in pursuit.
EXPLORE THE ZOO:
You are free to explore the 64 acre (25 hectare) zoo grounds. Find hidden secrets, creepy exhibits, rogue monsters, and immerse yourself in this delightfully disturbing zoo.
STAY ALIVE:
You must attempt to stay alive while inside the zoo. Monster anomalies of all different shapes and sizes wander the grounds. Avoid contact at all costs. When in doubt, RUN!
COLLECT TO WIN:
Only by finding and collecting 10 key cards scattered across the zoo will you be able to unlock the truth. Key cards can be found inside the animal enclosures.
SOLVE PUZZLES:
In order to collect a key card, you’ll need to solve a puzzle inside each enclosure. These puzzles are spread throughout the zoo and must be solved to obtain each key card.
DEFEND YOURSELF:
Equipped with the powerful flash lamp, you have the ability to halt any monster that chases you by releasing a forceful blast of light. The flash lamp defense requires any light bulb to fire the blast but you can only hold 5 bulbs at a time so use it wisely.

it is a very fun game. However it gets quite difficult. the monsters can be a bit... quirky. (from my experience) they don't ever lose interest, they can kill you through the walls, so be careful and they can climb up basically everywhere. the graphics are really cute and scary, and the gameplay is a bit repetitive, but there's something different in every enclosure. i like the variety of puzzles and the music is very good. once you understand everything, the game gets easier. sadly, i think the game doesn't tell you enough stuff. my overall rating is a 8.5/10 if you like puzzle games and a 4-6 if you're looking to just have some fun.

I've waited so long for this game to be released and was dissapointed it took me 2 months to figure out it came out. after playing for 1 hour I am dissapointed. The giant monster can grab you in the safe zone if you get too close to the fence. the puzzles are not hard but the mechanics are bad. the platforms are very hard to jump across given the amount of space. and the boards that throw you are annoying. they will either miss completely or throw you just slightly before the landing. either way after 50 minutes of trying to do half of one puzzle to get the key shard i gave up. sad because i really enjoy lights.are.off's videos and i know this is their first game. just a little more work on the mechanics and I think id be better IMO.

I am proud to say this is the first game me and my 4 year old daughter beat together!
She loves this game and always watches people play it on youtube but as a gamer myself I couldn't let someone else have all the fun so I gave it a shot and it did NOT disappoint... Great Puzzles, Heart Pounding chases, and EXCELLENT art direction.

I honestly like the game a lot because it has great visuals and decent monster designs and my favorite thing is that it has a HUGE map with lots of puzzles and mazes.

I love the idea of the game so much.
It's unique and new.
I wish it had gotten more publicity so that we'd get updates and new content faster.

Absolutely one of the best physics based platformers I've ever played. Some of the puzzles were very hard and took mulitple times of playing the game and putting it down for extended periods of time, but in all fairness it always kept me on my toes! Loved it 10/10
