Porkbound is an action-horror fighting game inspired by the Punch-Out!! gameplay but set in a dark universe connected to Hungry Lamu. You play as Aaron, a young man caught in a spiral of family conflict, painful memories of his dead brother, and instability that permeates every corner of the farm.
It all starts with a delivery job and petty clashes with the villagers—people with forced smiles and soulless eyes. However, that normal shell quickly collapses when a herd of human-faced pigs invades. Squeaks, the sound of tearing flesh, and the smell of rotting meat fill the air.
Each match is a test of concentration and reflexes: punch, dodge, block, and counterattack continuously, while the opponent becomes stronger and more deformed. The attacks cause physical damage and seem to dig deep into Aaron's mind, dragging the player down with the character's panic.
As he progresses, Aaron discovers the truth about the villagers: they were once human, until they were transformed in a terrible experiment. Behind it all is an anonymous scientist who has infiltrated the farm under the guise of an ordinary worker. The disappearance of his brother and the nightmare he is experiencing may be more closely related than you think.
Porkbound is more than just fast-paced action. The game creates a dark picture of the countryside at night, with dim yellow lights, swaying silhouettes, and silences that make you want to hold your breath. In between are short conversations, sometimes warm, sometimes full of allusions… as if to remind you that horror is always lurking right behind you.
You can also try the game Untime—an entirely different horror experience where time doesn't flow straight but twists around you.
