The Epic Games Store continues its weekly giveaway tradition with Amanita Design's unsettling Happy Game. Despite its cheerful title, players should brace themselves for anything but happiness - unless you consider scoring a free game something to celebrate.
Happy Game plunges players into a twisted hallucinatory world where a young boy awakens from sleep into a gruesome reality. Amanita Design subverts expectations by transforming their signature quirky puzzle style (seen in Chuchel) into pure psychological horror fodder.
Prepare to confront three nightmarish scenarios crammed with disturbing puzzles, where deceptively cheerful visuals mask truly horrifying sights and sounds. The unnerving soundtrack by Czech band DVA eliminates any hope of auditory relief - expect sleepless nights ahead.
Darkness disguised as delightHappy Game marks a surprising departure for Amanita Design, best known previously for the family-friendly Chuchel with its chaotic but harmless aesthetic.
