About Bonbon
Bonbon is a thirty-minute long, first-person domestic horror narrative about childhood events you are too young to understand.
Playing as a young toddler, walking and carrying objects will be difficult. You will drop things, and you will fall over. Since your parents aren't there to pick you up, you'll be spending time with a large, overbearing and ambiguous visitor... a monstrous, hungry rat named Bonbon.
You can play with mouse and keyboard, or a 360-style gamepad.
Please note that the game is a short, single-sitting experience. It will take between 20 to 40 minutes to complete, depending on how you play.

This shift in scale and agency is not just a stylistic choice—it defines how every interaction feels, turning even mundane objects into looming, uncertain presences. Movement is deliberately clumsy and imprecise, reflecting the physical limitations of a young child. Walking feels unsteady, turning is slow, and interacting with objects lacks the confidence players typically expect from first-person games. This design creates an immediate sense of vulnerability. You’re not equipped to deal with threats in a conventional way, and even simple navigation can feel like a challenge. That vulnerability becomes the foundation for the game’s tension, as it constantly reminds you that you are small, powerless, and not entirely in control. The gameplay itself is minimal, centered on exploration and completing simple tasks communicated thro…1 found this helpful
