Wonder Works, creators of the popular Roblox game RP . overlook, is releasing their new offering just in time for Halloween. Pooh! is a horror version of Winnie-the-Pooh by AA Milne. Milne’s first books entered the public domain earlier this year, inspiring a few new versions of the classic.
In the game, players try to escape Pooh as he hunts them through a haunted asylum. You have a flashlight, but it makes it easier for Pooh to find you. Trust me, you don’t want Pooh to find you. Unless you like being stuffed into honey jars.
Designed with high fidelity graphics, lighting and sound, Pooh seems to have a higher production value than what you would normally expect for a Roblox game. For horror, the experience gets scarier the closer you get to the realistic. For example, there are few things scarier than a realistic-looking Pooh trying to shove you into a honey jar.
Pooh! launches October 28 for Roblox, offering cross-play for your friends on various hardware. For those who want to live the murderous Pooh lifestyle, toy company YouTooz releases a collectible figure to commemorate the launch.
