Now in its final, completed form, BATIM is available on consoles and mobile.

How do you begin to describe a game like Bendy & The Ink Machine? On the surface, it is a survival horror game that features simple mechanics and puzzle-based problem solving. Dreams really do come true, even if they’re nightmares sometimes.
