Games where you play as an animal?

This is like the Find Rare/Obscure Games thread, but not really, so I suppose this is the place to post it. Are there any games on here where you play as an animal? I can't find an option to search game descriptions, only titles, which doesn't get you far.

I'm thinking of things a bit like the Warrior Cats books, that kind of thing. I remember a computer game I used to play at school sometimes (really ancient one - probably goes right back to Acorn computers and so on) where you played a badger and had to find your way back through the forest without running out of food or water - or getting poisoned, run over, etc. (Worked in a fairly Choose Your Own Adventure way, but with pictures and a running tally of hunger/thirst.) It made a really good game actually. One reason I want to see games like this is that I'm thinking of trying to write one myself.

Will be grateful for any recommendations!

[RMXP] Game can't find RTP package, when it's there in the folder?

Hello, I'm new to these games and I've got a mystery. I'm not sure if it's the right place to ask, as the problem's about playing rather than writing, but I don't know where else to ask.

I'm playing Anaryu's "World Outside". (And enjoying it, just the kind of thing I like.) It's written in RPG Maker XP. I installed the whole game, including the RTP download, to a USB stick. I downloaded and installed it using my laptop, and on there it runs perfectly. But when I put the stick into my desktop computer and try to run WorldOutside.exe there, it gets as far as putting up a black window and then says something like "RGSS RTP Standard not found". Now, the Enterbrain RGSS RTP folder, and the "Standard" folder within it, are on the USB stick, and the game can find them there just perfectly when it's the laptop that's running it. I checked (ran a search for files dating from the day I installed it) and there's not a single file of WorldOutside's or the RTP's on the laptop itself, it's all on the stick. So why won't it run just as well whichever computer it's on? It would be very convenient if it would - that's why I did it like that.

The desktop runs Windows XP and the laptop runs Windows Vista, if that's any help.

Thanks very much for your help.
