10 Video Games Way Darker Than Originally Advertised
4. Fall Guys
This is yet another one of those games that lulls us into a false sense of security because the characters are cute little lumps. Their pill-shaped bodies and stubby little legs make for the perfect cover for the horrors beneath as revealed on the official Fall Guys Twitter account back in 2020.
They tweeted it out in September but really it feels like they should’ve waited until Halloween to make the big reveal, in which we see the malformed, compressed skeletal form inside the bulbous body.
The thing has no teeth and no ears, begging the question of how it eats and how it might hear fellow Fall Guys approaching?
No wonder they so often get thrown out into the abyss. There’s no way they could hear the ominous whoosh of the Big Yeetus launcher before they’re bonked into oblivion.
Considering most of the time these little guys don’t even get a crown (admit it, you’re not a good enough player to guide them there), their existence really is just one of constant suffering.
