Willy's Wonderland - The Game Heads to Consoles and PC on June 13

You probably didn't expect a beat 'em up based on the Nicholas Cage horror movie, did you?

Before the Five Nights at Freddy's movie finally got itself made, a brave man named Nicholas Cage made his own movie based on the same concept. Willy's Wonderland came out in 2021, and some people like it better than the PG-13 FNaF movie. It seems that QUByte Interactive made a mobile game adaptation that has since been delisted. Now that game is being ported to consoles and PC as Willy's Wonderland - The Game. Better late than never, right?

Features:

Fight against hordes of enemies in "2.5D retro beat ‘em up" style inspired by the classics of the genre Go through Willy's Wonderland themed stages Two characters to choose from Make use of special techniques and powerful abilities Defeat multiple waves of enemies, as well as threatening bosses in each level

Basically, the game is a very basic 2.5D beat 'em up in which two characters from the movie fight against zombies (which I don't think the film has?) and evil animatronic robots. The game doesn't look very pretty, but it's pretty wild for a game based on such a small movie to even get created. The gameplay seems to limit attacks to the horizontal plane (a good thing for this genre), unlike the recent TMNT Arcade: Wrath of the Mutants. I'm going to have to watch the Willy's Wonderland movie now, I suppose.

Willy's Wonderland - The Game will cost $4.99. It will arrive on Xbox, PlayStation, Switch, and Steam on Thursday, June 13.
