About FLATHEAD

Hello, friend


"If you're reading this, chances are things aren't looking too hot. But that's alright - take a deep breath and focus. Today is special, as they like to remind us.

It's a simple game they got us playin’ and you're gonna do just fine.

Ya pull the lever, ya see a number. Guess if the next number is higher or lower and, if you’re right, ya get some points and ya get to keep right on playin’.

If you’re wrong, well… let's not worry about that... You’re gonna do just fine.

Now, I know what you're thinking. That sounds too simple. And maybe it is. But when the timer starts ticking and the Sunken start grinding their teeth out in the fields and you can hear them clackin and crackin as they inch closer and closer, well, maybe simple’s ok. Maybe you just want a game to play before they send you back down and simple's just fine for that.

I heard one of us escaped years ago but who knows if that's true, could be somethin they tell us just to give us hope. Anyway, it's my turn. Wish me luck."

Flathead


A simple game of over or under taken to the darkest extreme. Strapped to a machine with a plethora of gadgets, the footsteps of a nightmarish terror approach from behind. Your only hope is to save enough points to pay for your escape before the inevitable.

Flathead is designed as a highly replayable, single-sitting game dripping with tension and atmosphere. A simple idea of over or under becomes a strategic gamble with your life as a variety of tools and the strategies they introduce give a unique depth to an innocent concept. Increase your odds, accumulate point multipliers, gain unique modifiers, and more. But no matter how well you’re doing, maybe don’t look over your shoulder…

Today was special, participant.

KEY FEATURES


- Quick sessions with lots of replayability
- Strategically use the tools at your disposal to slow the approaching terror
- Earn and bank points to gain your freedom
- High risk, high reward. Let it ride and gain multipliers to increase your winnings
- Try your luck with the wheel of fate
- Make your own luck to increase your odds and your doom
- Unsettling atmosphere with growing tension
- Gritty analog horror aesthetic

did not enjoy. all style, no substance. no obvious story, although maybe there would have been one if i stuck with it. the gameplay is pure chance. good gambling games are about making decisions and this game genuinely has no decisions in it (apart from the multiplier / point banking system i guess). every situation you're put in has an obvious correct move, to the point that i don't even understand why the over/under system is in the game. if the number is 1-10, you click over and pray. if it's 11-20, you click under and pray. if it's 9-12, you click make your own luck and pray. this game's entire experience, start to finish, is waiting for the rng to give you the right numbers, while it bombards you with cool but meaningless horror visuals. emphasis on WAITING because some animations are way too long for no reason and prevent you from doing anything else. lots of style going absolutely nowhere and doing nothing at all.

Boltgun 2 price: buy the sequel, or the cheap first game?

The Boltgun 2 price has no cheaper route on launch day — our record shows one listing, unmoved since September. The first game is the bargain, but a smaller one than it was.
