New 3D Platformer ‘Bobo and the Chest of Nightmares’ Arriving for Halloween


What if Crash Bandicoot had a nightmare? That’s the pitch for “Bobo and the Chest of Nightmares,” a newly announced 3D platformer from solo developer Polycast Labs. Slated for a Halloween release, the title is inspired by classics like “Crash Bandicoot,” “Spyro,” and “MediEvil,” featuring a dreamy circus-meets-Halloween aesthetic.

In “Bobo and the Chest of Nightmares,” players step into the shoes of Bobo, a clumsy jester with a golden heart who accidentally unleashes the ancient Dreammaster, twisting the kingdom’s dreams into living nightmares. What follows is a journey through corrupted dreamworlds filled with vertical platforming, acrobatic movement, light combat, secrets, and theatrical boss fights.

“Bobo and the Chest of Nightmares” is currently in development for PC via Steam, where you can Wishlist the game now.
