About this game
Animal Well is a Metroidvania-style puzzle platformer featuring minimalist environmental narrative and procedural challenge design.
The experience unfolds across a mysterious underground labyrinth populated by animals and artifacts - presented without backstory or explicit guidance.

Gameplay is structured around exploration through interconnected, flip‑screen rooms that form a 16x16 grid of subterranean chambers.
Players control a small blob creature that walks, jumps, and collects quirky tools - such as slinkies, frisbees, or bubble wands - which often have unexpected, multi-purpose uses.
Survival hinges on maintaining hearts (gained by finding pink and blue fruits), avoiding hostile creatures and ghosts, and discovering hidden passages unlocked through item usage or environmental interaction.
Animal Well features layered gameplay defined by four “layers” of content: the first ending through environmental puzzles; a second “discovery” layer rich with hidden collectibles; a third that introduces ARG-like mechanics requiring real-world collaboration; and a fourth geared toward challenge-run and speedrun puzzles.
Each layer deepens the game’s secret ecosystem rather than expanding the world outward.
Procedural animation and a handcrafted pixel aesthetic reinforce the uncanny, discovery‑driven experience.
About Nintendo Switch
Released in 2017, the Nintendo Switch became one of the best-selling consoles of all time thanks to its hybrid handheld/docked design. Its cartridge-based physical format (as opposed to discs) has made complete-in-box collecting popular again, with certain limited print runs and Nintendo-published exclusives already commanding a premium on the secondhand market just a few years after release.
Gamevaro tracks Animal Well [PM Studios] for Nintendo Switch with separate market values for loose, complete-in-box (CIB) and factory-sealed copies, sourced from real eBay sales. Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.
