How cool would it be to have a video game based on Guillermo del Toro‘s Mimic? Okay, so Mascot Bro Studio’s Zoo Parasite isn’t exactly the 1997 monster mash, but it looks to be the next best thing with you venturing into city sewers to do a bit of extermination of some human-sized bugs.
From the minds behind mascot horror title Circus of TimTim, Zoo Parasite is currently slated for release on Steam, and puts you in the boots of an employee of T.E.N.A.C. It seems that a catastrophic chemical spill has mutated parasites that have in turn attacked the sewer-dwelling insects and animals, turning them into bloodthirsty creatures. You’re now tasked with navigating the hazardous environment and doing a cleanup of the chemicals.
Problem is, in Zoo Parasite, you’re not exactly armed to the teeth to deal with the mutants. You’ve only got your flashlight and your wits, and so you’ll have to outmaneuver and outsmart these grotesque monstrosities. All the while, you’ll be scavenging for resources in order to combat the mutants and survive. As you progress deeper into the sewers, you’ll uncover the truth behind the chemical spill, as well as some questionable experiments. As you might expect, the more you learn, the more sinister the truth becomes.
