Slime Rancher offers a colorful world to explore and loads of little creatures called Slimes to catch. They can be found hopping around several different locations across Far Far Range. Slime Rancher tasks its players with creating a thriving ranch, where they must collect and breed different types of Slimes to help The Ranch prosper.
Players will also find giant creatures along the way called Gordo Slimes, which they can feed various food items to obtain rewards. One notable reward that Gordo Slimes can drop is a Slime Key, which is used on locked gates to access previously unreachable areas. Each section of the map contains its own types of slimes for catching, so finding and feeding these Gordo Slimes is essential for progression.
