One of the strangest creepy pastas is being brought to life.
In March 2017 a video was uploaded to YouTube titled ‘Petscop’ with a description that read, “The game I found.” Little did I know that what was shown would go on to become one of videogames’ greatest mysteries, one that would inspire a small group of indie developers to recreate it.
For them, it all began with that single anonymous video upload in which a mysterious narrator, who would come to be known as Paul, discusses a PlayStation game he found. As he explores this strange and unfinished game, he finds and catches pets by solving a series of rudimentary puzzles. Despite this innocuous beginning, it soon becomes clear this isn’t your average game as things start to take a darker turn and Paul, following the instructions on an accompanying note, finds a shadowy underworld full of bizarre references and themes.
