Behaviour[]

  • Wild: Swordfish move relatively slowly.
  • When ridden: Swordfish move at a faster pace.
  • When angry: Swordfish accelerate dramatically and throw the player off when they hit an obstacle smaller than the swordfish (requires level 3 habitat). They can also smash any animal once when the habitat is level 3 or above.
  • In habitat: Swordfish swim around, and hop once from time to time.
    • Selected in habitat: Swordfish swim up slightly and swing their bill from side to side.

Tips[]

Swordfish are capable of getting the player from the start to 2000m very quickly and easily. They are easy to control and run very fast, making them an excellent long-distance animal. Swordfish also have benefits in that, if the player's swordfish habitat is at level 3, and the player hits an obstacle smaller than a swordfish, the player is thrown off and has a chance of latching onto another animal. The level 3 habitat upgrade also allows the player to smash one animal when the swordfish is angry. Additionally, swordfish earn 2x more Zoo Coin from crates at level 8, which is also very useful.

  • Level 9 - 2x more rare swordfish in the stampede

Trivia[]

  • The level 3 upgrade does not mention how the swordfish can smash an animal at level 3 onwards.
  • Swordfish were the winner for a poll in which the players had to choose the ninth ocean animal to be released in the game.
