Free creepypasta-inspired horror RPG

Squidward’s Suicide is a free single-player horror game that has been inspired by the popular creepypasta movement. The platform centers around first-person exploration within an unfamiliar environment and the occasional jump scare.

Squidward’s Suicide is similar to other platforms of the same genre, such as The Backrooms 1998, due to the fact that it is claimed to contain “lost footage” that has recently come to light. This very same theme is often associated with the online creepypasta movement.

An unaired episode

Staying true to the genre, the developers of Squidward’s Suicide claim that the game is based on an unreleased SpongeBob Squarepants episode that originally aired in 2005. The main difference is that, unlike the children’s cartoon series, this game contains dark and disturbing undertones.

An unhinged plot

The main character awakes from a dream only to find himself asleep in another mental state. While he appears to be within the Spongebob universe, many elements are disturbingly out of place. It is his job to solve puzzles and endure trials in order to make sense of what is happening.

Classic user controls

The gameplay associated with Squidward’s Suicide is rather straightforward. Keyboard inputs will control character movements, while a standard mouse will be used to drag and drop items that are collected along the way.

A faithful creepypasta rendition

Squidward’s Suicide can be compared to other games, such as Sponge Massacre, that have become dark parodies of the well-known SpongeBob franchise. However, the horror and suspense associated with this bundle both mirror many of the storylines that have come to define the creepypasta movement.
