Spooky Pixel Hero: A Retro Horror Platformer from Appsir

Appsir, the creators of the chilling DERE Vengeance, are back with a new mobile game: Spooky Pixel Hero. This meta-horror platformer plunges players into a 1976 retro game world where appearances deceive.

As a game developer tasked by a shadowy organization, you'll navigate over 120 levels of challenging platforming. The narrative transcends the game itself, hinting at ominous repercussions for your seemingly straightforward mission.

While the game's visuals evoke a retro aesthetic, reminiscent of titles like Airdorf's Faith, the pixel art cleverly creates a disturbing atmosphere. The historical accuracy of the graphics might be debatable for purists, but the style effectively conveys a complex and unsettling world.
