THE WORLD Carnival Hunt is meticulously crafted to immerse players in a captivating Victorianesque era, where the allure of steam engines and traveling circuses dominated the entertainment scene. The visuals and art direction evoke a sense of nostalgia with ornate details, vintage architecture, and intricate machinery that reflect the charm and grandeur of the time. Rich elements belonging to the Victorian era are seen in intricately wrought iron fences, gas lamps casting a warm glow on cobblestone streets, and vintage posters adorning the walls. This blend of historical accuracy and imaginative fantasy creates a unique and engrossing game world, inviting players to explore a bygone era filled with mystery and wonder. The whimsical carnival theme further enhances the experience, infusing the game with eccentric characters and a touch of enchantment. Players will find themselves captivated by the juxtaposition of darkness and whimsy as they navigate through the world of the traveling circus. Carnival Hunt takes the classic "Hide & Seek" concept and infuses it with an exciting twist. As Bunnies, players must work together in combining their wits and courage to overcome a series of daunting challenges orchestrated by the enigmatic Magician. Time is of the essence as you race against the clock to charge your wooden bodies before the Carnival Monster discovers your hiding place. Survival hinges on your ability to evade the relentless pursuit of the monstrous fiend and find a path to freedom. CHARACTER STORY The game features a diverse cast of Carnival Monsters, each possessing their own distinctive abilities and objectives. One such intriguing character is the Puppet Master, an enigmatic presence that players are sure to encounter. The Puppet Master's eerie presence adds an additional layer of suspense and mystery to the game. Players can delve into the depths of the Puppet Master's story, unveiling the hidden secrets of the carnival and uncovering the true nature of this captivating and unsettling character. The Puppet Master was fascinated by the art of puppetry. He spent countless hours crafting and manipulating puppets, developing a talent that was unmatched by anyone in his village. However, as he grew older, the Puppet Master's obsession with his craft began to consume him. In becoming increasingly isolated, the Puppet Master spent all of his time perfecting his puppets, which ultimately, led to experimentation. Although the Puppet Master is the main villain in the game’s story, he is not a playable character in-game. The Magician himself performed remarkable illusions such as disappearing and teleporting, among others. His most popular act was the classic trick of bringing a rabbit out of an empty hat and making it disappear again. The game portrays the Magician as someone who is willing to do anything, including sacrificing Bunnies and others, to achieve his dream of impressing an audience. It should be noted that the Magician is not necessarily an autonomous character, but rather one of the creations of the Puppet Master. As such, his actions and behaviors may be heavily influenced and manipulated by his Master, raising questions about who the real monster is. The Bunnies symbolize the innocent who were abducted by the Magician. In Carnival Hunt, the Bunnies support each other by winding up or charging one another which leads them to find strength and hope in a seemingly impossible situation.
