Sylvester is the first alien that you will encounter in Adventure Mode.

Description

Sylvester is an alien whose body is a dark blue color. Sylvester has a somewhat bulbous head and has no visible eyes. His mouth has five pointed fangs with two on his lower jaw and three on his upper jaw. He has two long arms and has spikes on the sides of them. His hands have three sharp claws on each hand. The top of his arms feature what look to be shoulder pads. His thorax is very muscular in appearance. The bottom of his body is a long tail with no extra features to it.

Adventure Mode

Being the first alien you encounter in the game, Sylvester is the easiest to deal with. He invades the player's aquarium in Tank 1 and Tank 2 and can only eat one fish at a time. He will get "full" before eating another fish.

Story

THE STORY OF
SYLVESTER THE ALIEN
Sylvester, the most lowly alien
Sylvester used to run a popular sushi bar in downtown San
Francisco, but when he discovered a mysterious wormhole that led
directly to the Insaniquarium, SYLVESTER sold the restaurant to
pursue his lifelong dream: EATING ALL YOUR FISH!


Strategies

General

As your first opponent that you encounter, Sylvester has no special abilities. Just keep shooting him until you are awarded a diamond. When you see him with Balrog, try to kill him quickly as Sylvester has low health.

Adventure

Tank 1 levels 2-3, tank 2 level 1: Coax him to the bottom corner and spam-click.

Tank 1 level 5: Take out Balrog, and let an attacking pet deal with Sylvester. If you didn't bring an attacking pet, go for Balrog first to get his dangerous appetite out of the way.

Challenge Mode

Sylvester and Balrog are one of the greatest threats when in multiple signatures and over 2 clones. It is very difficult to keep all your fish from being eaten by them. You must have a fully upgraded laser gun or Gash/Rufus and Presto (as an attacking pet) for easier disposal of these aliens. You can also try to navigate all of the clones to the bottom corner to deal with them all at the same time.

Virtual Tank

Main article: Mini-Sylvester

Mini-Sylvester can be bought in Virtual Tank and grow into a full-sized Sylvester. Sylvester eats ultravores and drops Bags O' Shells, making him a useful curiosity in the Virtual Tank.

Trivia

  • Sylvester is the first alien that you encounter.
  • Sylvester and Balrog are the only aliens that make the same roar when they appear.
    • Balrog is also the only alien Sylvester might spawn with, not to mention by itself. As such, if they are both spawned in Tank 1-5 or Challenge Mode, the roars will blend into each other.
  • Sylvester is the only alien that has no visable eyes; rather, his head has a mouth as the only facial feature.
  • Sylvester's design suggests that he is based off the Xenomorph.
  • Mini-Sylvesters can only eat Pets and Carnivores.
  • Cyrax's blue tentacles may hint at how Mini-Sylvesters are spawned.
  • Sylvester allegedly ran a sushi bar in San Francisco. This could explain why he likes to eat fish.
