Sometimes, if it is an anomaly, it will say, "I am hungry..." and might attack another patient as it leaves.

Appearance anomalies Anomalies that can be identified without the use of any equipment. All anomalies related to appearance can also be observed through photography and security cameras, but these are not necessary for identification.

Ignoring appearance anomalies will generally result in death rituals, the appearance of monsters, or the anomaly becoming a mimic that tries to eat patients or nearby players.

Unnatural facial appearance There are four variants of the anomaly with the symptom of an unnatural facial appearance. The patient will lose their real face and stare fixedly at the player while moving. All four variants feature a deep, distorted voice.

Officer Duckman is a black, duck-like creature who wears a blue shirt, which was taken from Ron in the Accounting Department and dyed blue. He also wears a blue cap and black pants. On his head rests a blue police visor with a silver badge in the center. His face is characterized by slanted eyes and a very distinctive orange beak. Little is known about Officer Duckman's background. He is a police officer working to track down the infamous serial killer Barney. Officer Duckman obtains, through unknown means, the photo of Barney that the player initially takes at Barney's request. It is implied that Barney left this photo for the officer to find at some point.

If you decide to turn Barney in, he will yell at the player to arrest him, realizing Barney was inside the office. After being attacked by Barney, Officer Duckman faints and needs medical attention to survive. However, if the player decides not to turn Barney in, the officer will leave and ask the player to report any other suspicious activity. Unlike Barney, who has his own coffee maker, Officer Duckman does not reward the player with a gift for turning him in.

Officer Duckman's appearance is dynamic and depends on the player's progress with Barney. Officer Duckman will only appear after the player has accepted Barney's request to hide behind the counter. However, the officer will never appear if the player chooses to refuse or ignore any of Barney's numerous requests. Officer Duckman is professional and focused on his duty. He enters the hospital calmly, determined to find Barney. If the player decides not to turn Barney in, Officer Duckman does not attempt to pressure them for information, demonstrating his level-headedness. However, his poor investigative skills suggest that he is rather incompetent at his job.

Ratthew is a small, very short black rat. He has a white snout, two elongated white incisors (due to his rodent nature), and a long, curly, pink tail. His ears are large and round, the same color as his fur, like a common rat's. Sometimes, when he appears, he stares directly at the camera, but he doesn't turn his head any more than is physically possible. Little is known about Ratthew's background. According to dialogue with Ron in Accounting, Ratthew once entered Ron's office. According to Ron, Ratthew gnawed on reports from an experiment that Ron wasn't supposed to see. During his first interaction with the player, Ratthew explains that being small has its advantages, as he hears and sees things that others don't. According to him, this makes being small a dangerous job. At this point, his identity is marked as "???", as the player doesn't yet know his name. The next time Ratthew visits the hospital, he tells the player that he thinks they are a good person. Trusting him enough, he reveals his name is Ratthew and advises the player not to trust anyone in the hospital. During the fourth encounter, Ratthew tells the player that he is beginning to appreciate him. He explains that many people consider him an anomaly and expresses his sadness at being treated that way. He is grateful that the player treats him like anyone else. Later, Ratthew returns and tells the player that he needs to disappear for a while because the Animal Corporation is after him, but that he wanted to talk to him first. This could explain why he was chewing on experiment reports in Ron's office. It suggests that Ratthew knows the corporation's secrets, such as the Anomaly infection, and that the corporation doesn't want him to reveal them. After this conversation, Ratthew speaks to the player at the reception desk. He reveals that he had a twin sister named Rattina, whom he describes as the smartest in the family. She worked for the Animal Corporation before mysteriously disappearing without a trace. Ratthew explains that he has been looking for her ever since. Before leaving, he gives the player a key and a note. After this, he does not reappear. If the player removes the cat poster in room 5, they will discover a vault hidden behind it. Using the key Ratthew gave them, the vault is opened, revealing a photo of Rattina, a suitcase labeled "TOP SECRET," and a note that reads, "The experiment was a success, the 'Shadow' now sees everything." Ratthew gives the impression of being paranoid but kind-hearted. Apparently, his distrust stems from past experiences. His initial comments about how his short stature allows him to see and hear things that most cannot give the impression that he is quite observant and perceptive, capable of noticing small details that many overlook.

The Stalker is a tall, black creature of unknown species. Like the Hiders, it has large, almond-shaped eyes with black irises, white sclera, and eye-glowing reflections, as well as a wide, crescent-shaped smile with flat teeth, resembling piano keys. However, it has longer limbs and a smaller torso. It also possesses a curved, black tail, similar in shape to Ratthew's. Ron, from the Accounting department, mentions that he used to work with the Stalker and describes it as shy, due to its habit of disappearing after being spotted. However, it enjoys observing players from a distance. The Stalker appears randomly in corners and inside rooms. When it appears, the room's lights flicker and a sound effect plays. Once detected, it quickly disappears behind a wall, draining mental stability and some sanity from any player who has seen it, causing trauma and paranoia.

History:

Before the infection corrupted the world, he was Rattina, therefore Ratthew's sister; however, he became infected, transforming into the monster he is now. As sad and painful as it sounds, few people know this part of the story.

Lisbeth, often called Liz, is a caracal with light brown fur and dark brown floppy ears that fade slightly from dark brown to a slightly darker shade of brown. She has a white ring around her eyes and eyelashes. Her muzzle is cream-colored, her whiskers are cream-colored, and her mouth is a small, inverted V-shape with the ends angled upwards. She has a thin, brown tail the same color as her fur. She wears a light blue cap, a black shirt, and a navy blue jacket. She has a white camera hanging around her neck. She wears light gray pants and black shoes. Liz used to work for the Animal Corporation's news station, but she was fired for reporting on the Anomaly infection, which the corporation dismissed as "fake news." She asks the players to help her investigate the case by using a special UV camera to take pictures of specific patients so she can include them in the article she intends to publish as proof that she was right. As seen in her dialogue, Liz is always dramatic and energetic. She sometimes draws out words, saying things like "Enormous," and includes emojis like "😀" in some of her sentences. She's also quite friendly and trusts the player enough to let them use her camera for a task. Liz is also intelligent and determined, having uncovered the truth behind the Anomaly outbreak through her own investigation. Instead of remaining silent, as Dr. Harlow suggests she should have, she attempted to expose Animal Corporation despite knowing the risks, which cost her her job. Even after being fired, she refuses to give up and continues her investigation with the player's help, hoping to prove she was right. The photos taken with her camera have a pink background and the patient's name at the bottom. Examining the first three photos reveals the following text: "The photo captured something strange..." Upon examining the fourth photo, he says, "The photo shows a hideous creature..."

Barney appears as a white, rabbit-like creature with slanted black eyes and a mustache. He wears a brown hat and brown plaid pants. His Anomaly form has a large mouth with sharp teeth and large, hollow black eyes with a small white dot in the center, each holding a knife. Barney is an anomaly and a dangerous serial killer. In his first interaction with the player, he asks for coffee because he's had a long day. The next time he appears at the hospital, he asks for coffee again. If you close the blinds or refuse him coffee, he will threaten you, saying, "You better watch out, I don't like being turned away." Despite his threats to the player, which imply that he will harm them, he never follows through; he simply doesn't return if refused. In the next interaction, he asks the player to store his red briefcase. In the third interaction, Barney will ask for another coffee and then ask the player to take his picture. The reason for this request is unknown, but it's the first time the player sees Barney in his abnormal form. Following the previous interaction, Barney will approach you and ask for a coffee. After you give it to him, he'll ask for a scalpel. This is the last turn you'll see Barney in his normal state, as in the next turn he'll ask to hide with you. You can refuse this request by closing the blinds. Barney orders another coffee and shortly after asks the player to hide him. With the police on his trail, Barney doesn't have many options and decides to ask the player for help. This gives the player the choice of letting him hide in the reception area or closing the blinds until he leaves. Refusing Barney on previous visits doesn't affect this interaction, as he'll still ask the player to hide him. If you hide Barney without handing him over to Officer Duckman, he'll reward you with an extra coffee maker with a longer recharge time. In his first interactions, Barney is very friendly and respectful. In many of his messages, he calls the player "friend," and whenever he receives help, he thanks or praises them (e.g., "You're the best..."). Almost all of his messages refer to the player as "friend." However, he takes advantage of the player and is demanding and manipulative rather than kind, becoming angry and even threatening if the player refuses to give him what he asks for. He is very dependent on the player for favors and feels like a parasite. When Officer Duckman arrives at the hospital, his demeanor changes. If the player speaks to him, he says that "friends don't betray each other..." and even says, "If you talk, I'll kill you, friend..." He is quite sadistic, considering he is a serial killer, and has no qualms about killing if necessary.

Dr. Harlow is the player's physician and supervisor. He appears at the end of the first few turns to explain hospital mechanics and unlock new areas. After the first six turns, he can be found in the lobby and the supply store, where players can speak with him. Dr. Harlow provides players with a performance report based on their performance during that turn.

Appearance: Dr. Harlow is a semi-dark orange mountain deer. At one point, Ratthew entered Ron's office and began munching on confidential reports of experiments that Ron wasn't supposed to see. Instead of getting angry, Ron says that Ratthew had done him a sincere favor. Around his neck, he wears a black stethoscope. Under his lab coat, he wears blue scrubs with a red tie. His lab coat is buttoned almost completely, revealing only a small portion of what's underneath. On his head rests a head-mounted mirror with a brown band. In his right hand, he carries a black briefcase with the words "TOP SECRET" in red letters, similar to Ron from Accounting. His face features slanted eyes with glossy black irises, and his mouth is covered by a blue surgical mask. On his head are two large gray antlers. His forehead has dark orange deer-like patterns on his face, with ears that are slightly darker than his face.

Personality:

Little is known about Dr. Harlow's personality. As revealed in his dialogue in the hospital lobby, he has worked at the Veterinary Hospital for a long time and has seen many employees come and go. He appears to be traumatized by an unspecified incident from which the Animal Corporation "saved" him, and he now works with them in a higher-ranking position. He hopes that once his "research" is complete, there will be no more patients, no more endless shifts at the hospital, and no more problems. Throughout the monologue, he speaks in a melancholic, yearning, and somewhat weary tone. The only things Dr. Harlow is seen doing are sitting in the lobby watching the player perform all the work, talking to an Animal Corporation employee in a hazmat suit outside the hospital, going to the staff room, or reporting to the reception desk at the end of his shift.

It's safe to assume that Dr. Harlow is a bit of a coward. During the first emergency, he doesn't lift a finger to help the player or players attend to the enormous number of patients arriving; instead, he flails his arms around the staff room.

The initial dialogue he says the first time he sees you: My name is Ron... I'm from the accounting department. Have you ever wondered why they keep hiring new people? ...It doesn't matter. Appearance: Ron from Accounting is depicted as a blue floppy-eared rabbit. He has short, brown fur, combed back, and squinty eyes. His expression is generally neutral, somewhat serious, and appears shy. His long blue ears are slightly longer than his head and a darker blue than the rest of his fur. He wears a simple white button-down long-sleeved shirt, black glasses, black trousers, a black tie, and what appear to be leather shoes. He also carries a black briefcase with the words "TOP SECRET" printed in red, similar to the one carried by Dr. Harlow. The words appear to be printed in a stencil font. While at the hospital, he wears a patient or visitor ID badge that reads "Ron from Accounting."

Ron works in management at Animal Corporation and has extensive knowledge of Anomalies and Entities. Due to his past at the Animal Hospital, he knows why the hospital keeps hiring new employees, though he keeps this a secret from the player. It can be inferred that previous employees often died on the job. During their second encounter, Ron reveals that he witnessed the hospital's previous manager being devoured by the Bed Monster. Since then, he always carries maple syrup with him to avoid suffering the same fate. Ron also tells the player that the hospital's patients aren't there because they're sick, but because they're infected. His knowledge of this suggests he's been visiting the hospital for quite some time to prevent infection. He also mentions that the hospital's old files were moved approximately a month prior, implying that he'd begun investigating the hospital at least since then. Ron has encountered several of the hospital's entities. He recalls seeing the Eyeball Monster staring down at him from the ceiling, which caused the previous doctor to frantically search for eye drops before mysteriously disappearing. He has also seen the Stalker, explaining that it often appears in the corner of his eye, but that it doesn't like being looked at and is actually quite shy. At one point, Ratthew entered Ron's office and began gnawing on confidential reports of experiments that Ron wasn't supposed to see. Instead of getting angry, Ron says that Ratthew had done him a sincere favor. Ron's conversations with Ratthew at reception suggest that they despise each other. Ratthew taunts Ron by calling him a "nerd," to which Ron responds irritably. Although Ron claims that the Animal Corporation is after Ratthew, he shows little interest in reporting or pursuing him. Ron is a knowledgeable patient at the Veterinary Hospital and an employee of the Animal Corporation. He knows the hospital's anomalies better than anyone, yet he remains calm.

The anomalies pose as normal patients; some succeed and others don't. They simply request an appointment like any other civilian, but not with the same intentions.

(50% probability of being an anomaly), eye sockets, three red eyes, spasms, terrifying smiles that don't fit, or physical deformities, patients who repeatedly bump into glass or have a crooked back.

Entities: (Mimics/Skinwalkers), Monsters disguised as animals that roam the rooms and attack patients and you, they have large pointed jaws, they will not hesitate to eat the first thing they see, which you must avoid.

How to deal with them:

Reject them: If you confirm that a patient is an anomaly, close the blinds on their area and wait for them to leave.

Neutralize: You can use your Taser, shoot them, or spray them with the fire extinguisher to defend yourself.

Some malfunctions may cause a green, vomit-like liquid with a nauseating smell; you can clean it manually or with a fire extinguisher.

To attend to the patients, you must be at reception, sign medical reports, take their photo, verify that they are okay, add the cause to the medical record, and print what they need. They usually vary both in appearance and health problems. In appearance, there are usually animals of all kinds with English names, and in terms of health problems:

Patients who have an appointment simply enter, asking to be seen at reception, and mentioning that they have an appointment. They are assigned a room and go to that room waiting to be seen, then they leave calmly.

2: Patients who come to the emergency room, this usually happens when they are on fire, they come running and someone from the staff quickly uses the fire extinguisher to put out the fire, then they are taken to a room to treat the burns.

3: Patients who come in normally but then faint, someone from the staff usually treats them by carrying them in their arms to a room to be treated, or if nobody is looking, some employee discreetly throws the patients into the trash can.

4: Patients usually arrive calmly but then go to room 8 in the west corridor where they are treated in palmistry, a stress to the staff since the surgery must go perfectly otherwise the patient dies.

5: For visiting patients, you should attend to them as usual, but you must add "patient, visitor" to what you print. This way, the staff member can visit any patient or medical staff member they wish.

Coffee: It's a liquid that helps staff avoid long-term problems, such as heart and brain issues. It's highly valued and can be found in the shop and in the coffee maker in the reception booth.

Chocolate: It's a food that helps staff avoid long-term problems, such as heart and brain issues. It's highly coveted and much loved, even more so than coffee, as it has more protein and muscle benefits. We can find it in the store.

Energy drink: we can find it in the store at a cheap price, this usually gives the staff a sugar boost for a short time, in this way they run faster making it easier to attend to more patients quickly.

Tea: This has the same effect as coffee and chocolate, the difference is that tea is sweeter and its effect lasts longer than coffee but less than chocolate.

Taser: This is a very effective item that helps keep anomalies and infected patients under control. It's undoubtedly a very necessary and useful item. You can find it in the reception area, right next to the coffee machine. Simply recharge it there when its energy runs out. You can also find it in the shop, but there you only have 5 recharges, which can run out.

Fire extinguisher: It is a necessary tool; its function is to extinguish patients who come in on fire, put out fires in burning rooms, and clean up patients' green vomit in seconds. We can find it next to the store for free. When the extinguishing agent runs out, it can be refilled by placing it in the same spot.

Camera: This item can be found in the store at a somewhat high price, but it is useful because with it we can drive away the souls of deceased patients. This camera has three uses.

Maple syrup: it's something coveted, it helps to ward off anomalies and is found on the shelves of hallways already treating patients with low blood sugar.

Eye drops: help to ward off anomalies found on the ceiling, to extinguish candles without physical harm, and to care for patients with eye problems.

It's a small, understaffed establishment; there are few people, but at least enough to attend to the patients. The facility is housed in a single-story building located on a disreputable alley. Upon entering, there's a large waiting room, usually with people waiting to be seen. The walls are peach-colored with a white stripe down the middle; it's a gloomy place protected by a security camera. A few meters away is the reception booth, enclosed in bulletproof tempered glass. In the center is a small entrance, about the size of a shoebox, where patients are seen and their files are usually submitted. A short distance further on is a door leading into the booth, usually only used by staff. Inside the booth, it's a bit more spacious. There's a table with a coffee maker, and next to it, a taser is hanging on the wall. There's also a table with a computer and chair for accessing the security cameras. Further along, there's a long desk that connects a window to the door, leading around into the room. There's an old A printer, a computer, some old, slightly jumbled papers, and a camera are all in the room. There's also a television hanging in the corner, usually showing the news. Leaving the booth, we find a hallway with a security camera and then three paths. To the north is a small shop, where they usually sell supplies for the staff. To the east is a hallway that connects to five rooms, lined with shelves containing medications and medical supplies, as well as trash cans. The hallway to the west has three rooms, also with machines containing medications and medical supplies, and trash cans. However, there are also chairs. The difference is that these rooms also have a palmistry room and an X-ray room.
