About the Game
 

Take control of the Batter as he seeks to purify an uncanny and hopeless world haunted by specters, guided by a cryptic, grinning cat called The Judge.

As they move the Batter through increasingly confused zones, a farm that extracts metal from the inside of cattle, an amusement park full of people too frightened to enjoy themselves, and a sugar factory with ominous smokestacks, players must reckon with The Batter’s mission themselves.

(re)Play the definitive version of a beloved cult classic, reimagined for modern platforms!

Key Features
 
  • Uncover the secrets of an uncanny world and command a being known as The Batter.
  • Crush the specters with the help of an all-new battle system.
  • Find a rollercoaster too scary to ride, a library terrorized by a page thief, a mall that you cannot escape.
  • The new version of OFF features all-new areas and bosses designed by the game’s creator Mortis Ghost.
  • Purify the Queen’s Zones so her citizens can get back to work.
