Translation Nintendo 64

Doubutsu Banchou English translation

動物番長

Zoinkity's full English translation of the unreleased Nintendo 64 prototype of Doubutsu Banchou, the game that became Cubivore on GameCube.

What's translated

Zoinkity translated the Japanese text of the N64 prototype into English, so this early version of the game can be played and compared with the later GameCube release. Version 1.0 came out in July 2021, two months after the prototype was made public.

About the game

Doubutsu Banchou casts you as a simple, cube-shaped animal in a world of rival beasts. Defeating and eating other creatures changes your body and abilities as you work toward the top of the food chain.
