A few months back, Petscop was the latest big Creepypasta game making the waves on the internet. I remember watching the first few released episodes all at once with intense intrigue, though some future developments made me lose a little interest (more on that in a second). Petscop is apparently an unreleased and forgotten PS1 game, a sort of puzzle-platformer monster collector, kind of like Pokemon in a sense. While the game starts off pretty innocently, in a zone with bright colors and cute monsters, things get dark fast when an underground area shows up, revealing scary mysteries and clues relating to missing children. One of the weirdest things about the game is the narrator/player of the game itself, named Paul. He seems generally unfazed about the events that unfold in the game and definitely knows more than he lets on. The series definitely requires repeat viewings especially in the later episodes, because I found myself becoming lost to what things meant, definitely not aided by a lack of narration and blacked out sections in the later episodes. It also hasn't been updated in a few months for unknown reasons. Some of the theories surrounding the game bring the most fear out of it, including the real-life case of Candace Newmaker, which the game makes reference to repeatedly. Anyway, it's an interesting series if you're willing to dive deep into it and I'd love to get back to it if it ever starts up again, with maybe some improved and less obtuse storytelling here and there.
