About the Game

ThanksTaking is a game where you play as an angry turkey, looking for revenge on thanksgiving night.... You have been taken home to be cooked for thanksgiving, and you have to make sure not to let that happen by killing anyone in your way! You need to explore the house and find keys to open the front door and escape before you get cooked.

Use a variety of attacks and moves to defend yourself in combat.. You can hide under and behind obstacles to not get noticed by people, however dogs can still smell you if you are hidden. You must complete the level before vicious dogs are released onto you.

You can decide to play this game in stealth, or engage in all out bloodshed!
