About This Game

Disclaimer:

Barbotine is a very short, experimental and linear game designed to be completed in a single sitting (20 - 30 minutes). There is no save system and minimal replay value. It can be played for FREE or donated to on itch.io.

Features:

  • Explore your progressively distorting apartment across 7 levels and indulge in the increasingly uncanny atmosphere.

  • Engage in a tense melee combat system against a peculiar enemy (Easy mode now available in the pause menu!).

  • Dig a big hole.

Music sampled from freesound. Creator credits:
