Evaluation

Cannibal Abduction launched on January 13, 2023 as a complete, self-contained survival horror experience. The developer followed up with a gameplay patch on January 30, 2023 (the "Deadly Update"), which improved the killer AI and added new items and translations. On February 8, 2024, the developer announced a console release in partnership with Puppet Combo, bringing the game to PS4, PS5, Xbox, and Switch. The most recent developer communication is a post from October 28, 2024, announcing their new game, The Fear Business. This post references Cannibal Abduction as a prior completed entry in the developer's series of horror titles. The developer notes they "might roll a content patch in the future" for The Fear Business — not for Cannibal Abduction — signaling that their attention has moved on to the new title. The only DLC on record is the game's soundtrack, which released on launch day. No unreleased DLC exists, no roadmap or future content has been announced for Cannibal Abduction, and the store description explicitly positions the game as a ~2-hour standalone experience. With the developer's focus now on The Fear Business, Cannibal Abduction is a finished product.

About this game

After borrowing his father's car, Henry is ready to finally have a weekend trip to escape from his parents house. Everything was on track until the engine stops running in the middle of nowhere and a humble local offers to tow Henry to his farm in order to fix the car problem, but he and his family had other plans for the young punk.

THE FOOD IS SERVED

Put yourself in Henry's sneakers and try to escape from the house of the cannibal family in this thrilling survival horror game made by the developers of The Night of the Scissors, and once again, inspired by classic slasher movies from the 80s and survival horror PSX games.

  • Experience the horror of being chased by a serial killer in his own house!
  • Stay in the shadows, hide inside wardrobes, don't let him notice you.
  • Soft puzzle elements.
  • Plan your next move, your pockets are limited and you won't be able to carry everything at once.
  • Cinematic camera angles and authentic VHS glitches.
  • Collect tapes to record your progress (They are scarce, use them wisely!)
  • A perfect mix of calm atmosphere and tense sound effects.
  • Two endings to help you discover why the family is acting so strange.

Disclaimer: This game is an experience that you can complete in around 2 hours and it's meant for players 18 years and over, it might also be too scary or grotesque for some people. Keep this in mind before acquiring the product.
