Creepy Redneck Dinosaur Mansion 3

Creepy Redneck Dinosaur Mansion 3 is "committing to the bit" so hard that it hurts. It's a sequel to a game series that doesn't exist, complete with lore and a fictional development team. It's a game where match-three is used not just for combat, but for lockpicking doors, debating robots, and swallowing a bunch of diamonds in front of a notorious gem thief so that he can't steal them first. It is, all genre elements considered, a match-three survival horror comedy RPG metroidvania, and it's rad as hell. 20 years ago, Creepy Redneck Dinosaur Mansion emerged as a smash-hit genre fusion, casting fan-favorite protagonist Jack Briar in a fast-paced puzzle adventure. Eight years ago, Creepy Redneck Dinosaur Mansion 3 was announced on the biggest stage in gaming. This is what happened next.

What is this?

  • A match-three metroidvania–or matchtroidvania–exploring the development of a sequel to a game series that doesn't exist.
  • Another wild genre fusion from the developers behind Clickolding, I Am Your Beast, and Space Warlord Organ Trading Simulator.
  • A story about sequels, game development, and the horrible, beautiful things that happen when the foundation of your reality falls apart.
  • Part match-three metroivania, part choice-based narrative, part survival horror parody, part joyful wheel-spinning nightmare.
  • A game that could only work with a polka soundtrack, provided by award-winning composer David Mason (Dredge, Life Eater).
  • Committing to the bit.
