Animal Use Protocol features a sassy rat companion

Animal Use Protocol is an upcoming survival horror game. It features a smart chimpanzee named Penn trying to escape a dangerous test facility. The game has a dark and eerie atmosphere, creating a sense of tension. During a recent event, a trailer was released showcasing some of the game's unique elements. Penn will use a special 'gravity manipulation tool' for solving puzzles and overcoming obstacles. This tool is reminiscent of the famous gravity gun from the game Half-Life 2. One of the highlights of the game is Penn's companion, Trip the rat. While Trip cannot speak like Penn, he uses a text-to-speech machine to communicate. His witty remarks add humor and charm to the game, making players feel more engaged. Animal Use Protocol is developed by the creators of Stasis and Bone Totem. Although it is still in development, players can wishlist it on Steam, with a release planned for 2026. Fans of horror and survival games can look forward to this title.
