I Am Monkey

A zoo cage from the monkey’s side

I Am Monkey is a simulation where you play as a monkey living in a zoo enclosure. Visitors come to the cage, and you decide how to respond: accept their attention, ignore them or push back. It suits players who enjoy hands-on sandbox play and brief encounters shaped by their choices.

Visitors set the tone

The people who stop by aren’t all alike. Some are friendly or bring things; others tease or act aggressively. Their behaviour gives each meeting a different mood, shifting between silly, tense and unruly. Rather than follow a single fixed routine, you react to whoever is at the bars and what they do.

Play with what’s around you

The enclosure is built for interaction. You can pick up objects visitors bring, eat bananas or throw things back into the scene. The bars, floor and items around you are part of the play space, so a small encounter can turn into a bout of mischief—or a more confrontational moment. The appeal is in experimenting with those objects and choosing how to deal with each visitor.

The game draws on a VR experience, putting the focus on seeing the zoo from the animal’s perspective. Its simple setup makes the visitor reactions and your responses the main event, rather than a long list of separate activities.
