Hungry Eyes

The little children want to see
what they can see beyond the sea.

Beyond the sea their hopes could soar
but first to get beyond the door.

Beyond the door before they come
at night to take us. We must run
away, away.

The grownups say
that we must stay.

Inspired by games like Little Nightmares and Silent Hill, Hungry Eyes is a survival- horror TTRPG where players take the roles of small children exploring an oversized, nightmarish world stalked by monstrous Groans (Grownups). Conflict is rare and players are required to use their wits to overcome the enemies and obstacles they encounter as well as using unique powers that will give them an edge.

The game utilises a unique dice-stacking mechanic and rules that enable players to approach challenges creatively in a way that only a TTRPG allows. They must balance the threat facing them as well as the gnawing hunger that burns inside each character.

Hungry Eyes is currently a work in progress. To get updates and be the first to hear about playtest opportunities please follow Bat Ears Games on itch.io and Bluesky.
