Tchia animals list
Below is the full list of all animals in Tchia, in the order they’re presented in the “Fauna” section of Tchia’s journal. We’ll also explain the habitat of each animal so you can find it more easily.
Best animals in Tchia
Many of the different animals in Tchia have unique traits and abilities which make them useful (or essential) in different circumstances. Here are a few of the most important animals to keep an eye out for. If they’re small, you can even put them in your backpack ready to possess later (don’t worry, they’re fine in there!):
Deer
The Deer is the fastest animal that can run on land in Tchia, thanks to its Sprint ability. Sprinting drains your Soul Meter quickly, but it’s a great way of quickly getting across terrain that Tchia can’t slide down. They’re also fairly commonly seen inland on both islands, particularly Ija Nöj, which makes them easy to find when you need them, even if they’re a little too big to live inside Tchia’s backpack.
Dolphins
If you need to travel at great speed underwater, there’s no animal better than the Dolphin. It’s a fast swimmer even without its Sprint ability, but with Sprint it can cover great distances very quickly - surpassing even the top speed of your boat! Though of course you won’t be able to keep that speed up for nearly as long.
Birds
Crabs
There are three species of crab to discover in Tchia, and they all have a very important purpose - they can use their strong claws to break the chains onTchia Treasure Chests. Otherwise they’re not particularly useful, although their ability to breathe underwater can prevent you from drowning if one is near enough to be possessed.
Xetiwa
That’s every single species of fauna in Tchia listed, along with information on where to go to find them. Hopefully this will help out those who want to meet and greet every animal in the game. For more on Awaceb’s lovely open-world adventure, check out Rachel’sTchia review!
