About the Game

Pony Island is a suspense puzzle game in disguise. You are in limbo, trapped in a malevolent and malfunctioning arcade machine devised by the devil himself. The devil detests having his puzzles solved and poor programming exposed; you will need to think outside the box to proceed and you will be insulted when you do.

In Pony Island you will...

  • Peer behind the rotting curtain of "Pony Island" to repair its broken code

  • Be forced to play along with The Devil's demented game of ponies

  • Explore the depths of the cryptic software system that runs His game

This game is about as indie as it gets.
