Summary[]
Beware! For years kids tuned in to watch the televised puppet world of Showdown Bandit, whose colorful cast performed in front of a live audience of ecstatic children. Then without warning the show was unceremoniously canceled and the studio, props and puppets were left to rot. Yet somehow the show lives again and you're in the spotlight. Take control of the Bandit himself and explore the dilapidated sets of what was once glorious Showdown Valley in this top-down, stealth-action-horror game from the makers of Bendy.
Try not to lose your wits or your strings as you sneak through the shadowy sets past a menagerie of eerie enemies and helpful inhabitants. Fight ONLY when you must!
