About the game

"You're a demon child. Someday, you'll be burning in hell for your sins.". This is the fourth and final title in the Strange Man series, developed by Uri Games. Will was running away from home with his mouse buddy Pop, until the two of them wandered into an abandoned building. What secrets lie hidden within?

What players say

I would say this one is the closest vibe to the crooked man compared to the other 2 in the series, and personally my second favorite following it. I really enjoy Uri's style though so all 4 games were a win to me.

It's a nice game. I like the game style and gameplay so much. And the voice acting is great. I loved the game. Sadly, it is the last part in the series but nevertheless, it was great. Everything has to come to an end Ig. ;p
