An Online Co-Op Horror Where You Can Play Cat & Mouse Game

Finland-based game developer Uuvana Studios has unveiled HOUND: AUTOMATON, an upcoming multiplayer game that blends horror and hilarity. In it, players can play a thrilling, fast-paced mouse-and-cat game. 

As an online co-op game, each session will take around 5 to 7 minutes. It starts with a player who takes the role of The Hound, a robot entity that chases humans. The game offers various hyper-realistic maps where you can find a perfect place to hide “from spooky abandoned warehouses to eerie cemetery grounds.”  

There will be up to 15 players to be chased at the beginning, with caught players immediately switching roles and joining the Hound’s team, which will change the power of the two parties in the game. 

The ability to customize settings allows players to adjust the tension level, so it’s up to you and your friends to go for fast-paced gameplay, experience the thrill of hunting or being chased, or enjoy a more peaceful experience. 

There is much more to look forward to in the future, as the developers have teased the upcoming addition of new features, characters, costumes, and modes.

We encourage you to add the game to your wishlist on Steam and follow the developer on X/Twitter to learn more about this multiplayer horror game, which will surely fill your gaming nights with laughter and screams.
