MATCH DNA BUBBLES IN AN UNDERGROUND LAB TO KEEP YOUR PSYCHIC CLONE FROM INVADING YOUR MIND AND TURNING YOU INTO A CANNIBAL. This is the match-3 survival horror comedy RPG metroidvania you didn't know you needed.
Creepy Redneck Dinosaur Mansion 3 is "committing to the bit" so hard that it hurts.
It's a sequel to a game series that doesn't exist, complete with lore and a fictional development team. It's a game where match-3 is used not just for combat, but for lockpicking doors, debating robots, and swallowing a bunch of diamonds in front of a notorious gem thief so that he can't steal them first.
It is, all genre elements considered, a match-3 survival horror comedy RPG metroidvania, and it's rad as hell.
20 years ago, Creepy Redneck Dinosaur Mansion emerged as a smash-hit genre fusion, casting fan-favorite protagonist Jack Briar in a fast-paced puzzle adventure.
8 years ago, Creepy Redneck Dinosaur Mansion 3 was announced on the biggest stage in gaming.
This is what happened next.
What is this?
A match-3 metroidvania--or matchroidvania --exploring the development of a sequel to a game series that doesn't exist.
Another wild genre fusion from the developers behind Clickolding, I Am Your Beast, and Space Warlord Organ Trading Simulator.
A story about sequels, game development, and the horrible, beautiful things that happen when the foundation of your reality falls apart.
Part match-3 metroidvania, part choice-based narrative, part survival horror parody, part joyful wheel-spinning nightmare.
A game that could only work with a polka soundtrack, provided by award-winning composer David Mason (Dredge, Life Eater).
