Summary

Poppy Playtime is a first-person horror puzzle game set in an abandoned toy factory, Playtime Co., ten years after all its staff members mysteriously disappeared. When the unnamed protagonist receives a VHS tape with a commercial for Poppy Playtime and factory tours, mysterious messages are cut into the footage, encouraging them to return to their old workplace to find their missing co-workers. Armed with a vital tool known as a GrabPack, the protagonist enters the factory and delves deeper at the behest of Poppy Playtime herself. Players will have to survive terrifying rogue mascots and toys that seek to kill them if they ever want to discover the truth behind the disappearances and survive the journey. Poppy Playtime has released two chapters, with additional chapters at undisclosed dates in the future.
