Santa will just stuff your stocking with coal, but someone else has a much worse gift in store for you when you’re bad in Krampusnacht.
It’s December 5th, the night before the Feast of Saint Nicholas, and you’re probably thinking about all of those lovely toys you and the other children will be enjoying the next day. Except, you also know that you’ve been kind of a jerk this year. Maybe you tripped a kid at school. Maybe you were mean to your nice parents. You did something bad, which means you’re on Krampus’ list of evildoers in need of punishment. So, tonight is going to be a bit more frightening than your average child might expect.
You need to stay away from Krampus for this lovely, snowy evening, doing so by staying on the move and collecting the items you need to stay one step ahead of the demon. For the most part, using the right tools should keep you safe, but cardio will also be key when the monstrous beast finds you. Your punishment won’t be light if you get caught, after all. Krampus really doesn’t care for naughty children.
Krampusnacht infuses the holidays with a bit more horror (beyond the usual meetings with certain family members you spend the better part of the rest of the year avoiding). If you need a good scream over something as a break from enforced merriment, it should make for a good old frightful time.
Krampusnacht is available now on itch.io.
