Those that know me know that I love Sonic the Hedgehog. Thanks to a recent bundle, I am also enjoying Dust: An Elysian Tail. When my husband noticed, he told me that they are considered furry games. I know plenty of cartoons that can count as furry, but the above mentioned are the only games that I know of. Can anybody recommend me some other furry games to try?

Blinx: The Time Sweeper if you own an xbox, Starfox series, Okami, shelter and I guess Skyrim

I don't think Shelter counts, seeing as how the character is actually an animal and not a Furry.

Well, Skyrim gives you the option to play as a Khajiit. I prefer to play as an Argonian myself though.

They're not "furry"... o_O

The words that your husband is looking for are "anthropomorphic animals".

Furries are humans in suits pretending to be animals, not animals that behave like humans.

Exactly this. Considering how popular anthro animals are in media (Mickey Mouse, Looney Toons, Ducktales, Rescuers Down Under, Starfox, Sonic, etc) I'm surprised anyone views them in a negative way.

As for games; the aforementioned Ducktales, Mickey Mouse (Castle of Illusion) and Starfox are options. As well: Animal Crossing, Conker's Bad Fur Day, Ratchet and Clank, Jak and Daxter, Earthworm Jim. Lots of good stuff :)

Considering how many good people I know happen to be furries, I'm surprised you view them in a negative way by default. Nobody said "These games are furry, so they must be terrible", you were the first one to add a negative association. :P

Ah, I supposed that's true. It just seemed to me they were being dismissed as such by OP's husband.

I may have read the situation wrong, but if OP's husband doesn't even really know what a furry really is, there is a better chance that the term was used negatively than positively.

OP Husband sounds pretty dismissive/arrogant/un-knowledgeable/incapable or knowing what furry, or anthropomorphic animals are.

Dear god, Animal Crossing. Why did you have to bring that up.
Now the OP will never escape.

On the other hand, if you're looking for a game with real furries - Super Mario Bros 3 and any other game in the series that uses the animal suit powerups qualify ;)

Haha, you're correct.

The raccoon suit comes to mind immediately and somewhat the Tanuki suit, although I'm not sure if the Tanuki is actually an animal in Japanese lore. o_O

P.S. I freaking LOVE SMB3, it's one of my all time favorite Nintendo games, I can still pick it up and play it for hours without getting bored!

Tanukis are actual animals, if that's what you're unsure of.

No, "furries" are anthropomorphic animals. The people you're thinking of are known as "furry-lifestylers", because they try to live as though they literally were furries even though they aren't. They are referred to as "furries" either as a metonym or as an in-character description - both of these typical usages are dependant on the primary literal meaning of the word being anthropomorphic animals.

There is no sub-genre of this topic. Furries, when typically discussed or thought of is as you described above. Not another term for "anthropomorphic animals".

thanks, now LittleKuriboh's furry cover of "pokerface" is ringing in my ears...urgh.

anyways, try out Don't Starve then.
what you say? it's not a game with furrys? well, then you didn't downloaded the characters "Komeiz", "Sollyz", "Wulfi", "Micheal The Fox" or "Haruz" on the workshop.

also, Super Mario Bros 3. the furriest of all games.
