Super Animal Royale is a fast-paced battle royale where fights happen often and the line between a loss and a win is paper-thin. While the game might look quite simple on the surface due to a colorful art style, top-down approach, and featuring adorable animals, winning is not as easy as you may think.

Like any battle royale, there are certain strategies that can help you to get that coveted last animal standing victory. Super Animal Royale might be easy to pick up and play, but it hides a lot of depth and nuance. Learning the ins and outs of this game is essential to raking up multiple wins and the following simple strategies should help.

10 Find The Right Game Mode For Your Play Style

Super Animal Royale features many different game modes depending on your playstyle. The game features solo, duos, and squads. While none of these modes are different from most other battle royale games, it’s a good idea to get to grips with the mode you play better at.

Depending on your preference for teamwork or not, there is an option for all players. Playing by yourself, exploring, looting, and getting into fights is a much different experience as a solo player versus a squad. Get familiar with your preferred mode to help get you closer to that win.

9 Land Away From The Pack

This strategy mostly pertains to new players, although more seasoned players might find it helpful too since it allows for more relaxed scavenging and exploration. The map in Super Animal Royale is fairly large but no so much so that you will easily get lost due to a plethora of distinguishable landmarks.

By landing far away from other players, you are able to take more time looting and finding your preferred weapons and items, while also stocking up on healing items. You may miss out on more gunfights right up front but this extra scavenging time can help you be better prepared for an inevitable fight.

8 Always Be Moving - Fast And Fluid

Super Animal Royale’s gameplay is based on moving fast, often, and effectively. This is not a game where you simply want to sit around and wait, mostly due to the fast-moving skunk gas storm and also because players can swarm you quite easily in this game.

Super Animal Royale gives you ample opportunities to move around the map quickly with the best option being the handy dodge roll. This dodge roll can easily get you out of harm’s way when in a fight but it can also be used to traverse the map more quickly. In order to stay alive longer, always be moving.

7 Experiment With Every Weapon And Item

This game features a wide range of weapons and items to get to grips with. While a majority of the guns in the game are very similar to other battle royale games, each one controls quite differently. You need to consider recoil, rate of fire, and ammunition type to just name a few.

Undoubtedly you will find a couple of weapons that you constantly seek out and because loot locations differ each match, it’s good to experiment. In a pinch you may need to pick up an unfamiliar weapon or item to trying out all of the game’s options can make you a more well-rounded player.

6 It’s Essential To Hide When Healing

Healing in Super Animal Royale takes a significant amount of time. It’s necessary to move out of harm’s way and hide in order to heal up effectively. Healing in this game comes from super juice, food items, and campfires. Similarly, you can repair your broken armor with duct tape.

If you try to immediately heal in a fight then you will likely be eliminated. The time to kill in this game is quite long and healing should always be prioritized so as to take on more fights and eventually claim that win. Always find a good hiding spot to real up and repair your armor when appropriate.

5 Don’t Forget The Hamster Balls And Emus

Two of the very best ways to move about the map are the hamster balls and emus. These modes of transportation are littered all across the map, in every biome. The hamster balls are useful because they not only act as a speedier mode of movement but also act as a temporary shield.

Emus, likewise, are fast and also allow you to attack opponents as you encounter them. Be prepared to get shot off the emus quickly though. If you are agile enough, you can make it through multiple locations to either escape a fight or to move away from the super skunk gas storm.

4 The Grass Hides Many Secrets

One of the easiest things to miss when playing a Super Animal Royale match is that the grass hides many items. You can use your pickaxe to break grass which often hides healing items, duct tape, ammo, and thrown weapons. Many players will miss this until they either see another player do the same or equip the claw feet item.

The claw feet item allows you to run and roll through grass sections, quickly cutting down a swathe to reveal the items hidden within. Make sure to always destroy the grass in a given area to stock up on much-needed items and ammo.

3 Collect As Much Duct Tape As Possible

Duct tape is crucial in this game but players aren’t directly told why. Essentially duct tape repairs your broken armor after a fight. You can only hold five duct tape at a time but it’s essential to the healing gameplay process if you want to survive a bit longer.

One interesting thing to note about duct tape is that it can also be used on broken armor that you happen to pick up, not just on armor you already had. Broken armor is useless and won’t block any damage even if it’s equipped. Duct tape can be found in crates, items boxes, from the grass, and simply lying around.

2 Learn How To Avoid The Super Skunk Gas Storm

The super skunk gas storm in Super Animal Royale is lethal and moves swiftly. While it encompasses a circle, just like in most battle royale games, it’s more devastating in this game due to the speed at which each match plays out.

The first phase or so of the storm is a bit more forgiving but after that, you need to prioritize movement to avoid this poison gas. One of the best strategies when avoiding the storm is to dodge roll as much as possible to increase movement speed. Watch out for trees, roots, and rocks that can easily block you in.

1 Practice Aiming Often And Early

Once you are comfortable with the landing, looting, and the exploring aspects of the game, it’s best to get into a lot of gunfights to get used to how they play out. Many players are quite good at this game and know how to outmaneuver each other in battles. Learning how to navigate battle scenarios is vital to winning.

While it might be a bit nerve-wracking at first to jump right into battles, it will ultimately help you get to grips with fighting, dodging, healing, and staying alive until the end. Jump into battles with confidence and you will eventually get that victory.
