Winnie's Hole

Winnie's Hole is an upcoming indie rogue-lite body horror video game based on the Winnie-the-Pooh franchise.

[1][2][3] The game has the player as a virus infecting Winnie-the-Pooh, maneuvering throughout his body while collecting resources and capturing healthy cells,[2] transforming him into a monstrous entity.

The game received initially mixed reactions upon announcement, with comparisons to the 2023 film Winnie-the-Pooh: Blood and Honey, which had a similar horror take on the character.

[3] In more neutral coverage, Arthur Damian of The Escapist expressed a desire to see a more "wholesome" take on the character after the game's release.

[4] Similarly, there was criticism over the game's decision to continue the recent horror trend of the Winnie-the-Pooh franchise, with Zoey Handley from Destructoid considering the genre to be played out and overused.
