Overview

About this game

Meet Maddox Holloway, a 9-year-old boy in rural England, 1940. With his father at the front lines of World War II, a dark affliction slowly consumes his mother, twisting her into something monstrous. Mutter follows Maddox’s harrowing struggle as he faces fear, suffering, and a crushing sense of responsibility, confronting the creature his mother is becoming while holding onto who she once was.

Explore a haunting world built with a handcrafted stop-motion aesthetic. Solve puzzles, wander the countryside, and uncover the tragic mystery behind your family’s curse. More than a fight for survival, this is an unsettling tale about the fragile bonds of family and the quiet horrors of war.

Adventure, Exploration & Puzzles

Solve environmental puzzles, interact with the environment with platformer mechanics, and explore the interconnected countryside using your bicycle to reach new locations between your quests.

Resources & Crafting

Tend your garden, gather vegetables and herbs, and craft essential items needed to endure the adventure and progress through the story. Find and craft specific recipes to elaborate potions, healing soups and food dishes to keep your mother, and yourself, alive.

A haunting Stop-motion world of Wonder and Nightmares

Journey through a handcrafted stop-motion world where every tactile, eerie scene mirrors an emotionally intense story of childhood grief, trauma, and fractured family bonds. The flavour of horror we are tapping into leans more to psychological tension and memorable emotional impact rather than traditional horror.

An original haunting soundtrack

A fully original, eerie score that deepens the immersion and emotion throughout your journey till the bitter end.
