Playmoth Games has released the short horror comedy *The World's Shortest Horror Game*.
One button, just a few minutes of gameplay
This game is the “world’s shortest” micro-horror comedy game that can be completed with a single button press. All the player can do is press a button.
Sit down, put on your headphones, check the volume, and stare at the button in front of you… Just when you think you’ve made up your mind, you might realize you haven’t.The store page keeps the details under wraps, stating, “Saying any more would spoil half the game.” The only things revealed are that it features analog horror-style presentation, maliciously timed sound effects, exceptionally unpleasant surprises, and end credits that make a huge deal out of absolutely everything.
Playmoth Games positions this title as “not a traditional horror adventure meant to be played for hours,” and says it’s intended to be played in just a few minutes—whether to pass it on to a friend, capture their reaction on a livestream, or send it as a small prank disguised as a gift.The store page even includes tips on how to foist it on friends, such as “Don’t give away any details” and “Just tell them, ‘I found a really short game.’”
An optional “Community Credits” feature has also been included. After playing, you can choose to leave a public name or walk away without leaving anything; names submitted are reviewed by administrators and then displayed to other players.
