Hey everyone! I’ve been playing roams.io and I’m trying to figure out which Arctic Ocean animals might show up in the game. Here’s what I’ve come up with so far:
100% Sure:
- Emperor penguin
- Harp seal
Might be there:
Pretty good chance:
- Arctic char
- Walrus
- Narwhal
Probably not, but who knows:
- Antarctic krill
- Atlantic herring
- Some kind of notothen fish
- Arctic flounder
- Antarctic toothfish
- Atlantic halibut
- Leopard seal
- Greenland shark
- Giant squid
- Sperm whale
- Alaskan king crab
What do you guys think? Have you seen any of these in the game? Are there other Arctic animals I’m missing? Let me know!
I’ve played roams.io quite a bit, and I can confirm some of your observations. The Emperor penguin and Harp seal are indeed staples of the Arctic environment in the game. I’ve also encountered Orcas and Walruses fairly regularly, so I’d move those up your list.
One creature you didn’t mention that I’ve seen a few times is the Beluga whale. It’s not as common as some others, but it definitely makes an appearance. I’ve never spotted an Atlantic puffin or Arctic char, though, so those might be less likely.
As for the ‘probably not’ category, I agree with most of your assessments. The game seems to focus on larger, more recognizable Arctic species rather than fish or smaller creatures. The Greenland shark is an interesting case - I’ve heard rumors of sightings, but I’ve never seen one myself in hundreds of hours of gameplay.
I’ve logged quite a few hours in roams.io, and I can add some insights to your list. You’re spot on with the Emperor penguin and Harp seal - they’re practically mascots of the Arctic region in the game. I’ve had numerous encounters with Orcas and Walruses too, so those are definitely in.
One creature you might want to add to your ‘pretty good chance’ list is the Polar bear. They’re a prominent feature in the Arctic landscapes and add a thrilling element of danger to gameplay. I’ve also come across Beluga whales a handful of times, though they’re not as common as some other species.
In my experience, the game tends to focus on the more iconic Arctic animals, so your ‘probably not’ list is likely accurate. I’ve never encountered things like krill or specific fish species. The developers seem to prioritize larger, more recognizable creatures that add visual appeal and interesting gameplay mechanics.
yo, i’ve played roams.io tons and gotta say, you’re pretty spot on. But lemme tell ya, I’ve seen belugas in there too! They’re not super common but def there. Never seen any puffins tho, so maybe scratch that off. And don’t forget polar bears - they’re everywhere in the arctic part!
