Slayaway Camp is brilliant. It takes the sliding block puzzle genre and injects it with an absolutely hilarious, blocky 1980s slasher movie aesthetic. Figuring out the exact sequence of moves to slide Skullface around the map to take out the camp counselors without getting trapped is immensely satisfying.
The difficulty curve is absolutely spot on. The game introduces new mechanics—like cops, landmines, and cats you aren't supposed to hurt—at just the right pace to keep your brain engaged. The 'Gorepack' kill animations are surprisingly funny due to the voxel art style. Highly recommended for puzzle fans!

Slayaway Camp is a darkly comedic sliding puzzle game that pays homage to 1980s VHS horror cinema. You play as Skullface, an adorable but deadly voxel-based slasher out for revenge on teenage camp counselors. Players must slide across isometric grids, avoiding obstacles like cops, traps, and innocent cats, to reach their targets. With its clever mechanics, hilarious mini-games, and hundreds of cleverly designed levels, it's a puzzle game that constantly surprises.
You can only move in straight lines until you hit an obstacle. Plan your routes backward from the final target to the start to figure out which walls you need to bounce off of.
The 80s slasher flicks of Halloween, Friday the 13th, and others are a great juxtaposition for a block sliding puzzle game.

Slide across the map to eliminate all counselors, then find your way to the pentagram exit to complete the scene.
No, the game uses blocky, Minecraft-style voxel graphics, making the gore comical and cartoonish rather than realistic.
