The most famous Klauninchen in Anthem is Detective Hoppel, and he goes on a crime-fighting adventure together with his partner. If you listen to a radio, you can experience his adventures.
In the world of Anthem, Klauninchen have a special place.
Because there are stories and exciting information about the animals to be found everywhere.
Some diligent MeinMMO readers have noticed that Klauninchen make my heart race. SoulEaterPain gave me a tip in the MeinMMO Discord about a very special radio show that you can find in your home Fort Tarsis.
What are Klauninchen? The animals are a colorful mix of squirrels, foxes, lizards, and moths. They hop through the world of Anthem. They are about the size of dogs and are suspected of stealing things. Otherwise, Klauninchen are harmless, or at least that’s what one believes.
Listen to the adventures of Detective Hoppel
Who is Detective Hoppel? This Klauninchen is the star of a radio novella that runs in the world of Anthem for the whole family. In the mysterious cases, Detective Hoppel and his human partner Constable Quincy solve crimes. When the smartest minds can’t figure it out, it takes a Klauninchen!
Here you can find the radio where you can listen to the adventures: As you progress in the Anthem campaign, the city gradually changes. You gain access to new places, and certain items or lore entries appear.
Relatively early, when you have unlocked your second Javelin, you will gain access to a courtyard with a large fountain in the middle. Behind the fountain, you will find a man sleeping with his head on a table. On the table, you will also find the radio.
Now, if you turn on the radio, the adventure of Detective Hoppel begins!
Detective Hoppel is lovingly and charmingly written: Especially in these little stories that can be found all over the world of Anthem, there is a lot of love involved. When I listened to Detective Hoppel, a smile immediately crossed my face.
I am impressed by how well this little radio show is produced. The speakers are enthusiastic, and it has a certain 20s vibe to it.
There is still much more to Klauninchen in Anthem
If you wander through the world of Anthem with open eyes, you will find Cortex entries everywhere. These supplement the lore of Anthem. There are more entries about Klauninchen than I could have ever imagined.
Klauninchen are tamed and kept as pets: Some residents in Anthem are just as excited about Klauninchen as I am. Thanks to a Cortex entry, I learned how to tame the little creatures and more about their behavior.
It is said: “To tame Klauninchen, it takes a lot of patience and understanding, but once you have gained their trust (and registered the keeping with the settlement administration), they make wonderful pets!”
The debate about Klauninchen also exists in the game: The community of Anthem argues about whether Klauninchen should be slaughtered or loved. This very question even exists in the world of Anthem.
In your mailbox, you will find a kind of report called “Pet or Pest: The Great Klauninchen Debate” in the spam folder.
Will Klauninchen play a bigger role? The developers have indeed incorporated quite a few Cortex entries about Klauninchen. They often joke themselves on social media about whether Klauninchen are the spawn of hell or not.
