Hail to the Chimp is a video game developed by Wideload Games and published by Gamecock Media Group. It was released in 2008 for the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360.
Gameplay
Up to four players compete as anthropomorphic animals in a variety of mini-games while vying for the role of "President of the Animal Kingdom". By competing in mini-game tournaments named Primaries, the players will collect clams that make the characters stronger, and complete different objectives at the same time. The one who gets the most votes will win the election. Clams are designed to be used in several ways as an all-around currency, whether by shooting them, giving out as donations or exchanging for other things like election signs or money.
