The briefing

About this game

After arriving in Animal Village, you must enter the boxing ring when the local animals join a new boxing gym. Animal Boxing is played with the Nintendo DS held upside down, using the touch screen to attack and the Control Pad to defend.

Touch-Based Boxing

  • Tap the opponent to throw a standard punch.
  • Swipe horizontally for a hook.
  • Swipe upward for an uppercut.
  • Hold the stylus on-screen to charge a stronger punch.
  • Use the Control Pad to dodge left and right or block.

Championship Progression

Taking and delivering hits raises the Anger Meter. When it reaches its maximum, your boxer enters a temporary rage state in which every attack becomes more powerful. Opponents can also enter this state, making blocking and dodging important during these moments.

Win a series of bouts to claim championship belts. Defeating each champion unlocks the next championship, new animals for Vs. Animal matches, and items used to decorate your boxer.
