Our take on Camp Sunshine

Its defining structure is a cat-and-mouse hunt through a summer camp, where the killer can appear anywhere and two hits end the game.

What is Camp Sunshine?

Play as Jez, who arrives at a summer camp and wakes to find bloodshed and a killer in a mascot costume.

Explore the camp, piece together the mystery, and uncover the slasher's past through diary pages about Isaac Illerman. The game uses hand-drawn 16-bit visuals, lighting mechanics, and a torch whose batteries can run out. Its central pursuit has the killer searching for Jez across the camp, while puzzles provide progression. Jez can withstand only two hits before the game ends. The story includes frightening scenes and references to famous franchises.

How Camp Sunshine plays

01Camp exploration: The setting can be explored across an entire summer camp.
02Torch battery limit: The flashlight has a finite battery supply that can be depleted.
03Diary-based backstory: Collected diary pages reveal information about Isaac Illerman's history.
04Two-hit failure: The player character reaches game over after taking two hits.
05Puzzle progression: Devious puzzles form part of the game's story-driven progression.
