Game Description
Bad Cheese provides gameplay where a little mouse performs a series of household chores while spending the weekend with his dysfunctional father in the absence of his mother. The key task is to remain in the favor of the parent and avoid punishment in the house shared with the brother and other demonic beings. The mouse has to wash the floors, cook French fries, destroy spiders and bring medicine to his father. All these worries reflect the child’s attempts to behave correctly in an explosive home atmosphere, where the main goal is to make daddy happy.
Exploring the family home is one of the key elements of Bad Cheese, presenting the world from a child’s perspective. Moving through different rooms, the mouse looks for scattered treats and figurines, which are the only source of joy. Such searches provide a temporary respite from the all-consuming need to monitor his father’s mood. Thus, moving around the house reveals complex situations and the terrifying truth about the existence of a small rodent in an abnormal family.
This psychological horror story unfolds through routine action framed by a visual style inspired by 1920s animation. The player observes events from the first person of a child, directly encountering the surreal reality of everyday life. Difficult situations and mysteries associated with the environment disrupt the usual way of life. The entire game is focused on the mouse’s efforts to create a semblance of normalcy and survive in the face of destructive family relationships.
