Animal Tree

Animal Tree by Pocket Software Inc.
I have been playing Animal Tree, an android app casually these last few months. It was a recommended app due to its similarity to Tiny Tower and I thought the small change in setting would be interesting.

Instead of pixel people, you had unique types of animals such as cats, dogs, squirrels and even bears. There is no specialization or differences in their skills due to their appearance. But there were special residents that could be bought through the cash shop. They also did not seem to have any specialties besides appearance.

There are several floors that can be unlocked similar to Tiny Tower's system but without upgrades. However, you may choose to decorate each floor as they are bare when constructed. The decor and furniture are very pricey especially for new players. Earning money is very tedious due to the clunky and sluggish elevator they provide you with at the start. Elevators can be upgraded to improve speed but costs a hefty amount of diamonds.

This app was upgraded last on February 2014 an does not seem to be maintained regularly. It still contains several bugs but is playable. It is supported through optional ads you may watch for gold, items or diamonds. You do not need an internet connection to play this.

General Tips:

  • Unlock the Special Detective Office (Basement) floor to gain access to money-making quests.
  • Try and keep a variety of animal types as your residents to make it easier to complete quests.
  • Knock on the Rabbit's door every day for a Daily Login Prize.
  • Watch ads to get free items, gold, diamonds. You may skip the ad after 5 seconds.
  • Place animals in their dream jobs. The floor next to the heart in their profile is their dream job.

Special Floors

  • B1: Detective Office - Receive Daily and SP quests here that reward gold, diamonds, cookies, tickets and special residents. Daily Quests are reset every 4 hours and SP quests reset daily.
  • B2: Race Track - Racing Minigame that needs a ticket for entry. Tickets can be bought for 2,500 or received from quest rewards.
  • B3: Elevator Sanctuary - Elevators may be upgraded here for diamonds only. First upgrade was about 20 diamonds.
  • B4: Arabian Market - Buy an assortment of decor/furniture. Seems to change regularly.
