Bad Ben
Dread XP and Nigel Bach Presents:
BAD BEN
Experience the first Found Footage Video Game that isn’t about Slender Man (citation needed)! Based on the cult hit micro-micro-micro-budget film series, the Bad Ben game is here to take the beloved franchise digital. Take the role of Tom Riley—voiced by the man himself, Nigel Bach—as he once again makes the incredibly informed decision to buy a house sight unseen at a sheriff’s auction.
Obviously, the night does not go by un-ghosted. Soon after his arrival, paranormal happenings begin to plague the unflappable Tom. You’ll have to get to the bottom of these spectral shenanigans, mostly by finding keys. Because it’s an indie horror game.
Do you have what it takes to survive the night?
Featuring:
- Yet another haunted house
- Fetch quests
- Zero jump-sc OMG A GHOST haha got you
- Limitless swears
- Unlockable content (not DLC, unless it does well then who knows)
- Voice by Nigel Bach
- A genuine blend of comedy and scares
- That vintage “corpsepile” smell

This game caught me off guard and I wanted to hate it so bad because of the tank controls, lol. Nope, this game is still fire! I loved every bit of it.
Ben MAY BE Bad, but BIG SOOKIE IS BADDER 😘
Honestly the concept of the game is really good but the control are awful, he turns really slow and it took me an hour and a half to play bc he just wouldn't move, would move the wrong way, or would continue moving without me touching the keys. But besides that the game was good.
Yeah I'm not doing hard mode lol great game! 😁
Edit: I wish there was a downloadable version so it can be preserved. Other than that this is great silly spooks 💀
I don't know if not showing the Ad was an easter egg for having ublock, but it was hilarious. Sadly i couldn't end the game so i watched a lets play. Still, funny as hell, 5/5
Gonna demand a Context Awareness on all games
THAT WAS THE FUNNIEST HORROR GAME I'VE EVER PLAYED!
That was so good, pretty scary, and the comedy was AMAZING.
SPOILERS AHEAD. READ AT YOUR OWN RISK.
I love that scene where the ad pops up and it's the real guy. That was really fun.
The swearing added that extra kick to the comedy and made it top notch, at least in my opinion.
Kept bumping into walls cause that walking was so difficult but that made it good.
10/10 <3
Bad Ben is a found-footage-style horror game where you explore a creepy house filled with paranormal activity. You play as a sarcastic guy named Tom just trying to figure out what the hell is going on. It’s weird, funny, tense—and full of surprises. Don’t let anyone spoil it for you. Go play it. It’s worth it.
how do i use shotgun i unlock the gun no shot. I did hard mode and hgot CZUCmaWEREAD by Nigel. I mean cum on Nigel??? waittttt.. haha.. NOT like that if youre cathching my drift no shotgun.... unless?

RETWEER
Absolute Cinema
This needs to be a full game! Such a hilarious way to poke fun at common horror tropes, and I love how there's a dedicated button for making the protagonist nonchalantly swear like a pirate 🤣

A TRASH
Peak
I'm stuck in the basement, is sad
yeah what are we supposed to do
Find the camera, see there's no power to the camera, go find the power cord and plug in the camera, then go back to look at the camera again.
how to use the shotgun?
dude im literally saying i unlock shot but no gun? like wuhhhh? like double tee eff style???>>#>>$>
Thats good
I got an "Ad starting" countdown in the lower right corner and then the screen went black and then nothing... Can't continue the game... No ad blocker enabled.
EDIT: Fixed it in Firefox by disabling "Enhanced Tracking Protection". But it was annoying that I had to restart the game every time and play through to that section until I found the correct thing to disable.
... The ad starting was a part of the game...

That was a cool twist.
hawkzombie played your game https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IhqKidxjIuY
this was really good)
best game ever the situational awareness mechanic is a one of a kind mechanic bad ben is truly a marvoulous beautiful game 100/10 i loved it.
7.5/10 - Comedy Gold, (15-20 mins), this game is great at using witty dry self aware humour which carries this game. Not to say it's not a great game without it but the humour is what made me enjoy the game so much. In addition the story has paranormal activity/ original resident evil feels to the game (it's not scary at all even though there are jumpscares ) . It takes elements from many things but it creates a great experience with a fun little story. The main protagonist is so funny that I'd love to play as him in other horror games and see how he'd react to strange situations. This game was a great ride, but it does have some things which I wish were improved. This would include the movement being slightly too stiff with the house being hard to navigate in at times due to the controls and the ending is a bit messy although enjoyable!
This is one awesome game but it laugh alot
Great work!
You have a lot of interesting games.
