About this game Read the full description

Hug or betray?

Cute plushies gathered in a creepy dark room.
Every round, everyone secretly picks one of three actions at the same time.

HUG - trust and embrace. If everyone HUGs, escaped players get pulled back
SWORD - betray and sneak out alone
GUN - shoot the traitor

Talk is limited to preset lines and short comments. Say "I'm HUGging" and pull a SWORD, and a red "LIED" tag hits you in the reveal.

Three ways to play

  • Solo, right now: press "Online match" on the title screen. You're matched with other Steam players, and if the table isn't full in 30 seconds, trash-talking bots fill in and the game starts
  • With friends on Discord: only the host buys it. Everyone else opens a URL on their phone and enters the room code (no app, free, up to 7). Your shared screen becomes the game board
  • On stream with viewers: overflow waits in line and rotates in. Passcode and approval keep it friends-only, and you can remove trolls mid-match

Features

  • Talk with preset lines and emotes: "I can see your sword~", "You're STILL at it?" and 30+ more taunts
  • Lose, and you get to type your Loser's howl - blasted across the whole screen
  • 5-10 minute matches. Rooms play 5 matches per game, Online Match plays 3
  • Phones never show results, so everyone watches the reveal on the same screen
  • 11 plushies. Japanese, English, Korean, Simplified Chinese, Spanish, Portuguese
