***CONTAINS ZERO SPOILERS***
A new (if
2020 is still new) indie horror PC game (though it's a lot funnier than it is scary) that several
YouTube and twitch streamers have started playing as of recently. Squirrel Stapler is part of the "Dread X Collection Part II" series of crappy horror games, but has recently gotten a stand-alone release on
steam for 7 dollars. The game is a parody of old hunting simulators from the late 90's-early 2000's. You play as a psychopathic
hunter who catches squirrels to staple to his dead wife's skinned body, with a message that God
will arrive after five days. Large amounts of tips, stories, and squirrel
facts are provided to the player throughout the game, but these get weirder and gorier as the game continues, just like the rest of the game. Squirrel Stapler is only about an hour long, come on, many late-2000's flash games take longer to beat! The game has intentionally shitty graphics, although you wouldn't expect much better from a game made by one
guy.
