About the Game

Smile and Play is a first-person mascot horror game set inside a closed indoor play center. 

(Very original, I know)

After a fun weekend at Smile Land, you realize you’ve left your wallet behind. Returning after hours was your only option, but at night Smile Land is not the same. 

What should have been a quick trip to find your wallet turns into a long night of eerie exploration and the discovery of very strange mysteries. 

 

EXPLORE SMILE LAND AFTER HOURS 

Wander through darkened play areas, arcades, hallways, and back rooms once filled with laughter and little kids. The now flickering lights, distant sounds, and the familiar mascot feel unsettling as the place slowly reveals its true purpose. 

SOLVE PUZZLES & UNCOVER SECRETS 

Progress through the playcenter by solving puzzles, interacting with strange things, and uncovering clues left behind. 

(Like most mascot horrors)

 

THE MASCOT GLOBBY 

The mascot Globby was designed to entertain children, 
but at night, it doesn't behave the same way. 

You’re not always alone, and you were never meant to see what happens in this place after hours.

DEATH

Games these days are too easy, so I made sure that if you somehow die during the game, you will go back to the start... OF THE ENTIRE GAME. so yeah... don't die!  

(Don't worry the game isn't that long anyways)
