A creepy AF classic-style adventure game

Explore a twisted children’s storybook reality filled with strange toys, eerie laughter, and things that definitely shouldn’t talk.

  Play as Rufus, a neglectful father trapped inside the pages of Sleepytime Village, haunted by his past and guided by a mysterious narrator who may not be what they seem.

• Spooky, not gory
