There are five possible characters to chat with, from an overfamiliar baboon to a suave fox. The characters cross over with developers The Wild Gentleman’s upcoming animal noir adventureChicken Police: Into the Hive!, itself a sequel to buddy-cop adventure gameChicken Police. I’ve not played either myself, but I’m into this particular take on animals-as-humans, so I’m tempted to go check them out.
