Zo

Zo, stylized as zo, is an alien wildlife simulation game developed by Toshiko Games and designed by Justin Wolfe. In it, players take control of one of 16 different alien animals.
==Gameplay==
zo is a life simulator taking place on another planet, where players control a wild animal of their choosing and play as it through the various aspects of life, including feeding, nesting, and reproducing. Players start out by choosing one of four environments (Uzal, Urangue, Varde, or Propua) and then choosing one of the four animals within each world. The game is a virtual ecosystem, complete with a food chain and predator-and-prey system (meaning predatorial animals will realistically hunt for prey). There are 16 different animals to play as, each with their own abilities and food sources. Players need to manage energy, hunger, and thirst.
In each world, players can encounter a local tribe of Alien Natives. These natives will regularly venture out into the environment and hunt for food, harvest fruit and crops, and forage for supplies. They present an added danger to the player, as the natives will not hesitate to kill the player when hunting. At night, stealthy players can sneak into the native village and raid the food stocks, provided they can sneak past guards. However, doing this forces the tribesmen to hunt more and more often, making the environment more dangerous.
Each environment also has a vast variety of non-playable creatures that serve as extra prey, predators, or competition. Each creature has its own behaviors; some live in herds, other sleep in trees, etc. Learning the behaviors of these additional animals is crucial for survival when hunting prey or avoiding predators. In addition, each environment possesses one variety of animal known as an Apex Predator. Apex Predators are at the top of their respective food chains and are extremely difficult, if not impossible, to kill.
The game will possess both a single-player mode and online servers that can hold up to 10 players.
==Trivia==
*zo originally rose as a concept known as blu. The game took place entirely on an island, which eventually became zo's Uzal environment.
*zo is the second Toshiko game to have its name stylized in all lowercase letters, the first being game.exe.
