About
In the dark shadows of your kidnapper's dungeon, you awaken to find yourself in the clutches of a deranged old man who sees you as nothing more than a doll. He has curated a sadistic game of control, where your survival depends on your ability to master his twisted version of childhood fun.
You will die.
Your captor has devised a series of deadly games for you to play. Each one more disturbing than the last, these challenges are designed to test your worthiness as his perfect "plaything." Failure means death, and success could mean becoming a permanent addition to his collection. Your only chance is to find a way to escape by yourself.
Find tools, interact with the environment and inspect items to find your way out. Each run has a different set of tools, games and means of escape. There is no safety net.
Each attempt you are a new victim. Don't expect the same games or means to escape. As such the game splits into two main sections - his games and your escape. If you manage to leave your room of captivity, better not get caught.
Will you manage to get out alive?

After I tried this game on a friend's computer, i decidided to buy it myself. It starts with some mini games which for some reason reminded me of the SquidGame series. The mini games are more challenging than I first thought. This game is really hard. At least for me :) Seems like failing and dying multiple times is part of the game. There is no game save. Everytime you die or restart the game, you start from the beginning. That's a little bit annoying, also it is what makes this game interesting. All you have to beat this game is your knowledge of the previous tries. BUT the clues you get in game is different at different places with every run. So it's not always the same.
not sure you can actually beat the game. every time I flip a switch in the toy room, then return to the room to wait for the next time by using the bath, it kills me. occasionally the time you have out of the room is so much shorter than it should be and you just lose. just seems too tedious and unfair after a while. I see the achievement rate is 0% for beating the game, so like, not a good sign. also the hopscotch game is definitely the jankiest, lowest completion rate according to the achievements. I only finished it once, other times it would change colors and just kill me instantly.
nice little game that keeps you interested in progressing
7/10 Es un juego entretenido, pero también con muchos bugs. Por lo menos en la versión que jugué que es la 1.0.2 me pasó un poco de lo siguiente: - El FOV se regresaba a por defecto cada vez que iniciaba una nueva partida - Objetos que no se pueden interactuar - Me mataban antes de que terminaran los contadores de los minijuegos - Hit Box incorrecta (se apuntaban a algunos objetos interactuables y se realizaba la interacción con otro que estaba a un lado) Las mecánicas y dinámicas de los minijuegos e ir reuniendo piezas para poder escapar están entretenidos. Es un juego que tienes que ir aprendiendo poco a poco y es inevitable el fallar para aprender como lograr escapar. Una vez que se arreglen los bugs que mencioné antes definitivamente es un juego que vale mucho la pena. Recomiendo conseguirlo con descuento ya que un estimado para poder terminarlo sin problema será de unas 2 horas (considerando el tiempo que necesitas para aprender las mecánicas)
💥 Ein interaktiver Müllhaufen mit der Eleganz eines umgekippten Glases Gurkenwasser Also mal ehrlich – was war das bitte für ein Erlebnis? Plaything fühlt sich an, als hätte jemand die pure Aggression eines schlechten Tages genommen, sie mit kaputter Physik vermischt und oben drauf ein bisschen Bienenwachs gekippt, nur um es dann als „Game“ zu verkaufen. Die Story? Irgendwo hinten links, zusammen mit dem letzten Apfel meiner Geduld verschollen. Die Charaktere? So lebendig wie ein Staubkorn in der Badewanne. Und ja, ich habe versucht, mich zu amüsieren – ehrlich – aber schon nach 10 Minuten dachte ich nur noch: "Ich würde mich dann für heute verabschieden." Die Steuerung fühlt sich an wie ein Sailer Krieger nach drei Joints zu viel – als hätte man versucht, Gras anzufassen, aber es war einfach nur ein kaputter Controller. Zwischendurch dachte ich, es kommt vielleicht noch was affengeiles – aber nope. Nur Bugs, Lags, und eine Atmosphäre, bei der einem die Luft ausgeht, noch bevor man das Menü findet. Auch die Dialoge haben mich mehrfach dazu gebracht, laut „dummes Stück Scheisse“ zu rufen – und das war noch milde formuliert. Selbst mein Hund hat irgendwann resigniert auf den Bildschirm gestarrt wie auf eine schlechte Folge Teleshopping. Ganz ehrlich? McDonalds is besser als das Spiel – und zwar die App. Zumindest da krieg ich was für mein Geld. Ich sag’s mal so: Wenn eure Scheidenfrontflora stabil ist, haltet sie fern von Plaything. Das hier ist nicht mal schlechte Satire – das ist einfach nur behinberd. Ich geh jetzt eine rauchen, smoken, irgendwas, um dieses Erlebnis aus meinem Kopf zu brennen. Bis bald, oder auch nicht. Ebenso.
A very fun but also challenging game! Wasnt able to escape yet, you really need to learn to qwirks af you kidnapper. Also the voiceover is creepy - in a good way.
Plaything is a very challenging game with very good graphics and puzzles which also works well with controller, its unforgiving and the game resets after every death but that's part of the feel of what its meant to be, i had a few issues with the game freezing after dying a number of times but a quick refresh and things where fine again, its worth playing if you want a challenge however the weighs game has an issue with the weights staying on the scales, other than that i enjoyed the game a lot and cant wait to try finish it 💚💙
Plaything - a thing to play in every situation! It's an escape room like game with minigame challanges - a short paced "thing" with lots of possible deaths achievements. For me it is a good mixture between a spooky horror touch, without being too creepy, and 3D jump-and-run. I found many of the challanges rather hard to solve and there are occasional glitches in the rendering: picked up objects flickered occasionally - but it's indie so it fits the game. I enjoyed the start of the game with the voice of the lunatic, but after having died many times it would be a good option to skip it and proceed to the next minigame right away. In summary: definitely give it a try!
Nervenzerfetzend und schwer, aber ich schaff das bestimmt schon noch...
Well Well Well :D What an interesting game :D Really enjoyable even if there are annoying things, like picking up the weights and it picks others we dont want, game of cube letters , and other minor things. but somehow the game made me stuck to it and didnt rest while didnt finished it :D and after 30 times i died i finnaly done it with cutting pliers through toyshop xD Ill recommend the game and i think that the price for it is the right one. Got key on keymailer btw ;) really enjoyed testing it ^^ www.twitch.tv/sirraph Cheers
