## Appearance

### Gold Trim

The Gold Trimmed Gorilla possesses all the features a normal Gorilla does. However, its arms are closer to its body, and there is a patch of gold below its torso.

### Phantom Gorilla

The Phantom Gorilla is a blue wispy flame with a small flame for its head. It has a paler "mask" and deep blue features, including narrowed eyes. 2 pairs of arms ending in 5 claws hover around its body.

### Grim Reaper

The Grim Reaper is a Gorilla with a skull-face, a black jacket with skulls on the elbows, and a green body and hands.

### Explorer Ape

The Explorer Ape is a Gorilla with a human-like face and hands. It has a brown-ish dark-gray body instead of simply dark-gray. The Explorer Ape also has glasses that symbolize wisdom, and a beard, hat, and backpack.

### Gorilla (#GoldenAge)

The Gorilla has a dark grey furry body, with shorter fur on its backside with its head at the very front and its rear end at the very back, giving it a hunched appearance. It has a small face, but a very tall forehead, and it has ears the same color as its face. It has arms with hands on either side of its face.

### Classic Gorilla

The old Gorilla is a Gorilla that is circle/semi-circle based, and it doesn't have arms.

## Strategy

When you are a Gorilla, use your 20% speed boost on hills to escape from predators or chase after prey. A good idea is to camp on a hill until prey passes by you. Immediately threw a banana/coconut at it, and dash after the prey while it is stunned, using the speed boost on the hill to give you an advantage and allow you to catch up with it if it is ahead of you. If you are being pursued by a predator, go on a hill and use your advantage with speed on it to get a head start in running away from the predator. When on the hill, turn around and throw a fruit at the predator to stun it, allowing for a quick escape. You can also climb a tree to evade the predator if the predator is an animal that cannot climb trees.

Since most predators cannot go on hills, you should be able to slow them down as they have to take a side-cut around the hill, while you can cut straight across the hill. Since you are also pretty fast in water, you can use that advantage to pursue prey or escape predators, unless you're facing a predator that also happens to be fast in water, such as a Crocodile or a Hippo.

If you want to level up quickly, you should camp on a coconut or banana tree because they give you a lot of XP, or use your ability to hunt, as Coconuts give more than enough time to kill prey.

Beware of Cobras, Boa Constrictors, and Giant Spiders, as Boa Constrictors and Giant Spiders can climb on Hills and can suffocate/trap and eat you. Cobras are also a huge threat, as they can spit Poison at you, which is extremely dangerous, and if hit more than 2 times, you'll be lunch. If you are poisoned, try to find easy prey like Pigs and above. If you manage to eat them, you'll heal your damage and cure your poison. If you do come across any of these predators, go in a hiding hole as quickly as you can, and stay there until you have an escape opportunity. If you are close to the Ocean and willing to take a few risks such as Ocean predators, try to make your way to the Ocean and climb on Sandhills to move deeper into the Ocean. These three predators are incredibly slow at swimming, so you'll lose them in no time (also you can eat Turtles or Crabs, but beware Pelicans).Beware of Orcas and Blue Whales as they can knock you off of the hill and quickly eat you.

Gorillas are very good at sniping. If you are willing to take risks, try finding a high tier animal that is being attacked by multiple animals. When he is only one hit away, shoot them with your projectile. With luck, it can become a coconut, doing even more damage.

If you want to play it safe, eat Red mushrooms, Pears and Honey Bees. Honey Bees are the fastest and most reliable way of levelling up. Even use your ability to weaken them if you aren’t stung right away.
