Move over Dead By Daylight, there’s another unbalanced asymmetrical horror game headed for the big top.

Killer Klowns From Outer Space: The Game is based on The Dickies’ Killer Klowns music video that was later turned into a hit movie back in the 80’s—one of the scariest times in human history.

From watching others play the game on Twitch, I learned you can play as either a Killer Klown or Human. During a match, three Klowns are tasked with finding, killing, and emoting on humans, while seven Humans must work together to escape or bully the Klowns until they uninstall the game.

The Klowns look as scary as they do in the music video. All your favorites are back including Jumbo, Shorty, Rudy, and Bianca Del Rio. My personal favorite is Buggy. His special ability is making humans walk the plank. At least, that’s what happened in the dream I had last night.

Things aren’t all cotton candy and cream pies in Klownland however. The recently released game has several bugs and balancing issues the developers are diligently working on fixing between yoga classes and walking their dogs. Besides, a broken weapon or two isn’t that bad. What did you expect them to do? Wait until the game is finished before release? Get over yourself!

Also, other players curse—a lot. It must be a requirement to play the game because I haven’t heard that many f-bombs at a get-together since that time the church picnic ran out of potato salad.

Killer Klowns From Outer Space: The Game is not a movie. But it is a video game. So, if you don’t have the game, just do what I do and hold a controller while watching the movie. And, hey! If you do it while watching the music video, you’ll unlock the ringmaster costume skin. Neato!
