Tips & Tricks - Tricky Bushes

We’ve already written a post about how fundamentally useful the bushes scattered around the island are to your hiding endeavors. However, there are also a few sneaky details about them that might catch you off guard or worse, get you caught. So here are a few tips and tricks regarding hiding in bushes.

For starters, while guard dogs have a short attention span, they aren’t stupid. If one of them manages to notice you, a clear exclamation mark will appear over their heads and they will be fast on your heels. If you run into a bush in an attempt to hide in front of their eyes, they will still remember where you are and you will notice a similar mark appear above the bush. This means you are unsafe, and they can still catch you, so running is your only option.

The bushes around the island are also notoriously thick, filled with branches and leaves. While this makes them the perfect cover to hide in, it also means it takes a little extra effort to pop out of them again, as our possum does love to eat. So if you notice yourself struggling to get out of a bush, it’s because you aren’t moving hard enough.
