Spooky Pixel Hero: A Retro Horror Platformer from the Creators of DERE Vengeance

Appsir, the studio behind the chilling DERE Vengeance, is back with a new mobile game: Spooky Pixel Hero. This meta-horror platformer plunges players into a 1976 retro game world where appearances deceive.

As a game developer hired by a shadowy organization, you'll navigate over 120 challenging platforming levels within a lost game. The narrative transcends the game's boundaries, hinting at sinister consequences beyond your initial debugging task.

Spooky Pixel Hero evokes the unsettling atmosphere of Airdorf Games' Faith, offering a chilling experience distinct from other recent releases. While the pixel art style might not be historically accurate, its retro aesthetic effectively creates a dense and unsettling world.
