About ThanksTaking

ThanksTaking is a game where you play as an angry turkey, looking for revenge on thanksgiving night.... You have been taken home to be cooked for thanksgiving, and you have to make sure not to let that happen by killing anyone in your way! You need to explore the house and find keys to open the front door and escape before you get cooked.

Use a variety of attacks and moves to defend yourself in combat.. You can hide under and behind obstacles to not get noticed by people, however dogs can still smell you if you are hidden. You must complete the level before vicious dogs are released onto you.

You can decide to play this game in stealth, or engage in all out bloodshed!

Gameplay:
-You have to explore a house full of people and dogs trying to catch you
-You have to escape the house before angry dogs are released on you and can find you anywhere on the map
-You have to collect keys around the house to be able to open the front door and progress to the next level
-You can play the game by avoiding enemies and hiding, or go on a rampage
-You have a variety of unique abilities and attacks to unlock and help you defeat enemies

Cosmetics:
-You can unlock skins for your character by just playing the game and gathering currency. These do not affect your stats or in game performance, just cosmetic.
-You can unlock Hats and other accessories by opening wishbones. Wishbones are bought with the in game currency Tur-coin. If you grab the correct side of the wishbone, you will be rewarded with a random Hat or accessory. These are also purely cosmetic and serve no real purpose.

"ThanksTaking" is a laughably bad joke game that was dumped on Steam as a paid product. A simple and pointless premise, you're a turkey and you fight all the people trying to kill and cook you for Thanksgiving. I don't think this was inspired by vegans, just the hope that if someone should dump a joke game on Steam with a big price tag on it, it will go "viral" and the developer will make lots of money from his joke. This happens a lot, unfortunately, so Steam is polluted with a lot of terrible quality joke games nobody wanted. Like this. What do you do in the game? It's just top down brawling with deplorably low graphics, bad controls, and zero fun beyond the not even funny joke premise. In terms of visuals, this features fairly low quality low poly 3D graphics which will deter a lot of gamers, understandably. Gaming is a visual medium, and while some developers struggle with creating high quality visuals, failing to do so is a disservice to gamers. It's very difficult to recommend bad looking games. Now on to pricing and value for gamers. There's no initial download price, but the developer was charging $9 USD for this. Price barriers, especially on low quality produ…

This game is an absolute blast! I fired it up during one of my Twitch streams, and wow, it was a mix of frustration, laughter, and pure triumph. At first, I was getting roasted (pun intended), but once I figured out the mechanics, it was game on. Those humans never stood a chance! You can either sneak around all stealthy, hiding under furniture, or go full psycho turkey and just wreck everyone. I tried both and had a blast either way. The dogs are no joke, though. They add just the right amount of stress to keep things interesting. If you’re looking for something goofy, challenging, and just plain fun, you’ve gotta check this out. I never thought I’d enjoy playing as a revenge-seeking turkey so much, but here we are. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "Once I started kicking human butt, I couldn’t stop. Highly recommend."
