Kyiv, Ukraine – January 21, 2025. Do you see it, or is it just in your head? Haunted Dude has released the first story trailer for The Demons Told Me to Make This Game, a choice-driven narrative adventure where you invade minds and manipulate events to escape a time loop.
Blending dark comedy with horror, The Demons Told Me to Make This Game casts players as a disembodied spirit guiding hapless exorcists through a demonic outbreak in a Midwestern town. Using possession and time manipulation, you will bend their wills to push them to investigate, do unspeakable things and repeatedly die to piece together the sequence that will break the loop.
The new trailer sets the stage for your visit to Red Hives, highlighting its eerie small town atmosphere and the colorful cast of residents, including reluctant heroes Gum and Tape, the enigmatic Beekeeper, the suspiciously kind Mrs. Doomsday, and the shotgun-toting Father Benjamin.

Red Hives may look like a small, dying town where nothing ever happens, but don't let the looks deceive you. The history of this place is riddled with terrible tragedies and things way worse than demons lurk in its shadows.
Dark Wisp has been brought into being by some force beyond comprehension, in the middle of a demonic outbreak that threatens to pull Red Hives from dying to dead. The only ones standing against the darkness are a crew of amateur exorcists. Brave but hopelessly unprepared for what they face.
Fortunately, they can hear demons. They can hear you. As you guide them, bending wills and shaping fates, one question lingers: whose side are you really on?..
