About Kartong - Death by Cardboard!
In a twisted world best described as ”a miniature cardboard city turned into a malicious science experiment”, you find yourself captured against your will by an oddly charming but mysterious YouTuber that goes by the name "Sven" in the deadly city of Kartong. Your life now depends on mediocre office supply-weapons and your every move is being filmed for his YouTube enjoyment - a truly odd experience, all wrapped up in challenging stealth/FPS gameplay. And oh, did we mention that you’re shrunk to the size of a toilet paper roll? Yes, you’re small... very small.
Available for Arcades on SpringboardVR
Kartong - Death by Cardboard! combines the cuteness of scary toys with the charm of paper cuts - all wrapped up in challenging stealth/FPS gameplay (that’s a legit genre, right?).
VR or Non-VR, it's all up to you!
Both PC and VR modes will offer procedurally generated levels with maps, traps, weapons and toy enemies constantly changing. A unique seed system also allows you to replay your favorite maps and share them with friends!
New Progression and Skins!
No worries, no loot boxes here! However, to upgrade your crossbow you need Robo-Coins. These coins can be obtained by smacking some robot-butt! Each time you slay a robot they will drop coins that can be gathered to upgrade your crossbow throughout the game. Hasta la vista, baby!
Life never gets easier!
So, you managed to find your way out of the city? Well, it ain't over yet pal. Kartong’s many difficulty levels will push you to the limit of your own madness. We would say “Prepare To Die”, but that’s a bit cliche now ain’t it?
Become the ultimate maze-warrior!
Kartong features a a local high score system for each difficulty as well as unique seeds to control the maps. So now you can challenge your friends for the best scores, get the sweetest upgrades and show off your rarest loot!
You like watching them and so do we!
With the new gameplay concept Kartong Co-Labs, we'll be able to put your favorite streamers and YouTubers into the deadly cardboard world of Kartong.

A game jam gone horribly wrong!
After launching our previous title SVRVIVE: The Deus Helix, our dev team held a "lets-go-bonkers" game jam to blow off some steam. Obviously troubled by some very disturbing thoughts (disclaimer: we blame office air pollution), our team came up with Kartong. And once conceived, we had no choice but to bring a new unpronounceable game to the world.

[h1] Game appears to be maze-like experience where you collect gears and coins, occasionally finding some weapons. First person view and there's VR support. Main goal is to get to the next area. Stages are filled with traps which you can disable or use to your own advantage. As confusing as it is you will not get far without learning game basics and repeating a dozen of times. Maps are random generated and after you complete one you move on to the next area with increased maze size and more enemies. Art style feels fresh and it's made from cardboard filled with tiny house hold objects. Game might seem kinda daunting at first but as you grasp the rules it's ok. You can open boxes to gather items using gears or wind keys which you collect along the way but also watch out for traps! Overall if you like first person rogue-like games you might give it a spin - for me it was mediocre but worth checking out. [/h1]23 found this helpful
I think the true horror here is that if shrinking people down to miniature size was a real possibility, I can imagine that plenty of people would create little cardboard death house mazes to subject them to. You can really ignore the whole stealth mechanic, as there is plenty of ammo to kill your way through a level and the AI isn't particularly smart. There's no satisfying conclusion to the game, and at the end I wasn't sure I'd really achieved anything. Did my guy actually escape, or was he tossed into the trash? Or was he tossed back into the maze? I didn't play through twice, as the 20 levels don't offer a huge amount of variety regardless of the randomness of the mazes. It was fun, but lacks depth to keep my playing after the first time.3 found this helpful

great game but very hard to play
game wont start and ic comes up with this loginid epic account how do i fix this unreal crash report client
I usually get motion sickness from VR games, however in this game I had no issue at all! The controls are a bit hard to master, for example in the tutorial it is not explained well at all that you also need to press the control stick to walk, not only push it in a direction. Once you've mastered the controls though, the game is lots of fun. One of the best VR experiences I've had so far!
