Pixel Art Deckbuilder Hungry Horrors Dealing Out Of Early Access

We last reported on Hungry Horrors, a card-based adventure inspired by British and Irish folklore, from developer Clumsy Bear Studio, earlier this year. At the time, Hungry Horrors was getting ready to launch into Steam Early Access. Now, the developer has announced that the game is ready for its full 1.0 launch on October 13th, 2026, following feedback that has given Hungry Horrors a 98% positive rating on Steam.

 

Hungry Horrors is a card-based deck-building adventure inspired by British & Irish folklore, where players face down terrifying creatures not to defeat them, but to feed them. Every card played is a meal served, and each encounter is a race to keep a Horror fed before it reaches you and feeds on you instead.

 

Key features:

 

8 biomes from across the British Isles, from green meadows to moody highlands

34 folklore Horrors, including Dullahan, Jenny Greenteeth, and Queen Mab

62 playable dishes based on real traditional recipes from Britain and Ireland

13 legendary characters, such as Herne the Hunter and the Wulver

Seasonings, cookware, potions, and artefacts that alter how you play

The Book of Taliesin meta progression system

Two modes: Campaign, a roguelite story mode, and a shorter, harder roguelike

33 unique death animations for when a Horror gets to you

Original music composed by Henry Taylor

Steam Deck Verified, with full controller, mouse-only, or keyboard-only
