About the Game:
500 FINGER FILLET is a horror roguelite about being handcuffed to a hand-stabbing machine that won’t unlock itself until you’ve stabbed between your fingers – or into them – 500 times. With just 20 minutes on the clock, you’ll need to resort to extreme measures to survive.
Choose what the machine stabs you with next, from the dull Rusty Fork to the all-seeing Ritual Knife. Earn money through stabbing your hand, which you can spend on items and rings to improve your chances. Each stab carries risk. Each stab brings you closer to freedom. Do you have what it takes to escape?
NEW! Demo features:
- 5 new knives! Gotta slice ‘em all!
