About HopBound


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 retro charm of 90s handheld games.

SPINE-CHILLING AUDIO
Listen to unique ambient music that provide 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 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 games are brought back to life and have evolved into new incomprehensible forms.

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.

HopBound has NO controller support. Please unplug any controllers before playing this game as it may cause movement issues for the player character.

One of the greatest allegories I've ever seen in game. Just play it, you won't regret the journey, especially if you've played their past games

An experience worth having.

Weird meta-platformer with acceptable gameplay and cool nonsensical story. The game play is nothing deep here, but it's cool that you navigate a browser to enter different levels. I would've liked a bit more depth here but the music and atmosphere is spot on. The game has an eerie tone to it and pseudo-Gameboy Graphics combined with the simplistic gameplay and bizarre story give it a weird isolating feeling. If you beat the game you unlock a final level that is obnoxiously hard and that's about it. While it probably has the best story of the games made by Appsir it's still a confusing jumbled mess with too many characters and no sense to what is going on. With that said it was still fun to play through.
Recommended Aug 20, 2023
The platforming is intentionally difficult, but it is also imperfect. Despite its flaws, the platforming can be fun. The soundtrack is nice. I think it's worth the $3 for the gameplay and the music. The story is very unoriginal, though. [spoiler] Some of the dialogue is lifted almost word-for-word from Silent Hill 2. [/spoiler]
