About the Game

The name says it all, you're a cow and you've got to escape...but actually it's more complicated than that, in-fact it's more complicated than you'd believe...

In a world where robotics is annoying and difficult, scientists have devised a devilish plan for a new species of cow-man hybrids, Cowmen. Strong, diligent and willing, they make the perfect workforce. The only flaw in their plan, you.

A genetic mistake, you may appear as a normal cow, but under the hood you are equipped with supreme speed, power, agility and gaseousness. You also have laser vision. 

Even more shocking, you're not the only one. There are more cows like you, hiding right under the nose of the meat industry. With the help of the mysterious animal rights advocacy group, AAA, your mission is to infiltrate the facility and free as many calves as you can. 

The abattoir will be teeming with Cowmen, so prepare for a fight, because stealth is for chickens.

What?

Abattoir: Cow Escape is a high impact action experience. Use brutal horn attacks, kicks, gas bursts, laser vision and your environment to take out enemies in fast-paced combat.
