Squirrel Stapler

In a remote cabin, a lonely man sets out to make his deceased beloved beautiful again by stapling squirrels to her corpse. The strange task unfolds in a forest where other dangers lurk.

Explore the woods in first person, listening for squirrels, moving quietly, hiding in bushes, and choosing when to shoot. A squirrel call can draw larger prey, while hostile creatures may force you to hide or fight.

The hunt plays out over five days, with a return to the cabin between outings. Explore the nonlinear forest for notes, squirrel facts, and other finds; collecting items can also unlock a giant-squirrels mode.

In the supplied reviews, players often enjoy the game’s bizarre hunting premise and its mix of dark humor with unsettling horror. Many highlight the forest atmosphere and sound design, which make the simple hunting loop feel tense, and some praise its concise, memorable story. Others find the gameplay repetitive or too easy, and several say the short length makes the price feel high.
