It uses a variety of retro fonts to capture the old-school advertisement feel carnivals often use. Additionally, the designs for the clowns themselves immediately create a sense of uneasiness for the player. You can’t help but keep your guard up as you play, although it doesn’t help.fear of clownsretro fontsdesigns for the clownsThe game uses a flat, 2D game design reminiscent of Flash games of the previous decades. Still, it creates a scary feel, partly because of its wobbly camera that moves together with your cursor. In terms of gameplay, it’s an immersive experience that lets you take in every exhibit. You only need your mouse to interact with on-screen elements. There’s no timing or reflex needed.flat, 2D game designwobbly cameramouse to interactno timing or reflex neededLastly, note that the game contains deeply disturbing elements such as violence, abuse, and trauma.
