    Bad Cheese is a psychological horror inspired by the eerie charm of 1920s animation.

    Step into the tiny paws of a mouse spending the weekend at home with a dysfunctional Dad while Mom's away. Be on your best behavior and KEEP DADDY HAPPY.

    Complete tasks, eat snacks, find toys, and navigate the "complicated family dynamic."
    Experience the gruesome reality of a child-mouse trying to maintain a sense of normalcy in a not-so-normal household.
    Every family has a corpse in the closet and in this house, there are many closets.

    Hand-drawn art combined with a 16mm film-inspired aesthetic will make you feel like you're watching a scary cartoon from the golden era of animation.

    A lot should be forgiven when it comes to Bad Cheese. At only an hour or two in length it’s a comfortably brief experience, and it deserves kudos for the imagination lavished upon it, the cool gadgets, and for the aesthetics as well. For a one-person game it is very impressive and that can’t be denied. However, Bad Cheese enslaves you into performing chores and the mechanics could be improved. Overall, Bad Cheese is definitely a solid effort despite the sense it could be tightened up and improved in terms of gameplay.

    Bad Cheese is a creatively important game and one that many will love, especially those who enjoy the 1920s cartoon visual style. I do think the gameplay gets a bit samey, doesn’t quite click at times, and feels a bit stiff. But the number of tasks you can action, and the machines that you get to operate and play with, are a lot of fun.
