You’ve got mail. You shouldn’t have opened it. A classic creepypasta brought to life as a cozy horror, where one email is all it takes for things to go wrong.

“A short horror game that builds tension little by little. Atmospheric, clever in its design, and with some fun PC tricks that add an extra layer to the eerie experience.”

About This Game

About This Game

It started with an email.

Just a little game in the attachment. A simple spot-the-difference puzzle. You’ve seen a thousand of them.
What’s the harm in one more download?

Smile Dog is a psychological horror experience inspired by the classic 2008 creepypasta - a descent into early internet dread, where the line between fiction, memory, and malware gets... blurry.

The game lasts about ~45 minutes and have 3 endings, perfect for a quick, "relaxing" experience.

KEY FEATURES

  • Your Desktop is the Game: Watch your own system turn against you. Wallpapers glitch. Images are unsettling. The UI breaks in ways that feel a little too real. Something is slipping through - and it’s not part of the game.

  • Your Inbox is Watching: It starts with spam. Then it starts getting... personal. The story unfolds through emails that know things they shouldn’t. Some of them feel like they're waiting for you to reply.

  • A Creepypasta Reimagined: This is Smile Dog like you’ve never seen it. We’ve kept the spirit of the original, but added a new layer of unease.

  • Trhee Possible Endings: Your choices - or your failures - decide how the story closes. Each ending reveals a different layer of the Smile Dog.
