About Fantasmagorie
“It’s simple enough to make the puppets move–that’s not what makes them special. You see, when children watch our shows, they believe what they’re seeing is real. To them, the puppets are alive.”
Journey through a distorted puppet theatre held together by the fragile mind of a grieving puppet master. Take the stage as Viviette—a music box ballerina who's mysteriously free from the puppet master's control.
Danger looms around every corner, filling the workshop, backstage, and stage of this theatre with perilous threats. With only a needle and thread by your side, you must swing, climb, and manipulate objects to progress, all while evading twisted and terrifying puppets along the way. Follow the guidance of a mysterious spirit to uncover fragmented memories from the past, revealing more about the one pulling the strings.
Shatter the delusion and uncover the truth behind it all.
Fantasmagorie is a free 30 minute narrative game created by a team of students. Uncover the story by exploring 3 levels and encountering 3 bosses along the way. Your download will include the full game experience, with a save system and settings for sound/graphics.

What Steam players say
Recent verbatim reviews from Steam — separate from playze.io community reviews below.
Fantasmagorie impresses players with its stunning hand-drawn animation, atmospheric design, and creative art style, though opinions sharply divide on the gameplay experience. Common complaints center on sluggish, unresponsive controls, problematic collision detection, and camera angles that make platforming frustrating, with some players struggling through these issues while others adapt to the deliberate movement.
Wow! One of my all time favorite short games ever. The animation is absolutely stunning, the atmosphere creepy yet beautiful - our main character... GORGEOUS! Immediately fell in love and won't ever forget this one. It was partially compatible with controller so I had to switch back and forth the whole game which caused me to mess up a few times. NEED a full version PLEASE!! loved it!2 found this helpful
Pretty cute and fun, although at some points, the camera angle and perspective did make me miss afew jumps and achievements weren't unlocking despite me doing them multiple times. Still a beautiful and creative game, really hope there's a chance of more stuff from the creators. 7.8/101 found this helpful
This game f%cking sucks. Literally just a dev team looking to show off their graphical abilities while lacking in every other aspect of game development. Horrible conveyance, terrible controls, collision detection that borders on cheating, slow and clunky movement, and the fact that your character slides everywhere like the whole game is some kind of ice level is infuriating. I can't tell how many times I died just trying to get from one ledge to another because either she glides right off of it when I stop to try and time it, She doesn't jump when I hit the key bound to it. The games collision detection couldn't make it's mind up on whether I actually hit the ledge just right enough to count it. And all this doesn't even take into consideration whether or nor the game is going to trap you in an invisible wall in the foreground that the cursor keeps locking to. Yeah, you either get wedge against a wall that isn't there, or the imaginary wall just keeps honing your threaded needle gimmick to attach to it rather than anything else in the room. Did I mention it does so at random? I get it, this is a free game by a dev team trying to put something out there, but even then I still fee…1 found this helpful
it was a fun very short game, i enjoyed every second of it, was kinda hard at first cuz the controls felt so heavy and slow but after a few tries i got used to it. 9/101 found this helpful
x-- 5/10 --x Game felt a bit clunky to me. I loved the story, and the art style, but the gameplay just felt very stiff. Trying to get a "no death" ending was VERY painful, as the controls arn't response enough.
I think this is a student game, very very cool and props to all involved. I like the needle mechanic and the puzzles for it where interesting. The game's setting has a nice vibe to it as well.
