About Animal Hospital (Anomaly)

Animal Hospital (Anomaly) is a Roblox anomaly-spotting horror game. You work the front desk of an animal hospital and must inspect every patient - through the window, a photo and the CCTV cameras - to catch anomalies like hollow eyes, too many teeth, a distorted photo or a voice far too deep for a hamster. Reject the anomalies with the Shutters button before they get in; if one slips through, fight it off with a weapon. The catch is Sanity: staring at anomaly photos drains it, and if it hits zero your run ends - so the goal is to survive as many shifts as you can.

  • Inspect every patient three ways - window, photo and CCTV - since each catches threats the others miss.
  • Spot anomalies (hollow eyes, too many teeth, distorted photos, a too-deep voice) and reject them with the Shutters button.
  • If an anomaly gets through, fight it off with your taser (unlocked at Shift 4) or a gun from the shop.
  • Manage your Sanity - staring at anomaly photos drains it, and coffee and food from the shop restore it.

How to level up fast in Animal Hospital (Anomaly)

Run all three checks (window, photo and CCTV) on every single patient - each catches anomalies the others miss, so skipping one is how they get in. Reject anything suspicious with the Shutters button; a correct rejection boosts your end-of-shift score and cash. Keep your Sanity topped up with coffee and food from the shop, since staring at anomaly photos drains it and hitting zero ends your run. Save shop cash for the taser and gun so you can handle anomalies that slip through, and survive shift by shift.

How do you spot anomalies in Animal Hospital?

Check every patient three ways - the window, the photo and the CCTV - because each catches things the others miss. Look for hollow eyes, too many teeth, distorted photos, twitching or a voice far too deep for the animal, then reject it with the Shutters button.

How do you survive longer in Animal Hospital (Anomaly)?

Manage your Sanity - staring at anomaly photos drains it, so keep it topped up with coffee and food from the shop. Reject anomalies before they get in, buy the taser and gun for the ones that slip through, and inspect carefully rather than rushing.
