HopBound is a story-driven psychological horror game that revolves around the surreal mind of Mayumi, a recluse who must journey through an unsettling retro game to come to terms with the ghosts of her past. Through 16-bit horror platformer stages and endless runner levels with gorgeous pixel art, she discovers that her sanity will be tested by something lurking behind the screen. ===== NOSTALGIC VISUALS Most of the game's stunning visuals use a palette of only four colors to evoke the charm of 90s handheld games. SPINE-CHILLING AUDIO Listen to unique ambient music that provides a sense of dream-like dread as you explore the game's sinister levels. A STANDALONE CONTINUATION Taking place two years after the events of the critically acclaimed DERE EVIL EXE, HopBound serves as a continuation of that story. However, users do not need to play DERE EVIL EXE to immerse themselves in HopBound's narrative experience. HEART-POUNDING MONSTERS Enemies from previous entries are brought back to life and have evolved into new incomprehensible forms. MULTIPLE GAME MODES Engage in frenzied platforming in story-rich levels and test your skills in infinite runner levels tailored for people who like competing for high scores on the Game Center leaderboard. MEANINGFUL MACHINATIONS Going against sequel conventions, HopBound doesn't go bigger and badder for the scale of its story. Instead, the game focuses inward, resulting in a haunting yet meaningful tale. ADORABLE STICKERS Now comes with an iMessage sticker pack featuring HopBound's adorable cast of characters! ===== This game contains one optional in-app purchase to permanently disable ads. We recommend that users purchase this feature for a truly immersive experience.
