What is Boney's Research On Humans!?
Play as Boney, an undead journalist investigating humans after a portal strands him in their world.
This top-down 2D stealth game places him in secret laboratories and other environments where he must hide, avoid enemies, and find a route back to Monsternett. Tables, containers, trees, and cardboard boxes can provide cover. A Dooter and thrown bones offer ways to distract enemies, while costumes can enable fights.
