Granny is a horror escape room videogame made by Dennis Vukanovic, commonly known as DVloper, that is available on the App Store, the Play Store, and Steam.[1][3][4] It includes blood and violence, but the art style does not depict them realistically.[1][5][6] The game is canonically related to some of DVloper’s other games, notably those in his Slendrina franchise.[5] The app does not have a privacy policy.[6]

Gameplay

[edit]

Since the game Granny is an escape room, the player needs to get several items to escape, including but not limited to a master key, a screwdriver, and cutting pliers.[3] As the player is trying to solve the puzzles to his escape, the game’s main antagonist, named Granny, is trying to hunt the player down and if caught, the player is beaten up by Granny with a wooden bat.[6] There is no way to save the game, so the playes has to either escape (win), die (lose), or exit the game.[7] The game is already hard, but it can be made easier or even harder.[6][7]

While playing the game, the player has five ‘days’ to beat the game. The game starts on day one, and each time Granny catches the player, the day count goes up by one (day one becomes day two, two becomes three, etc.). If the player is caught on the fifth day, the player fails, and therefore dies.[1] The game is already hard, but it can be made easier or even harder.[6] If the player assemles a painting in the basement, Granny rewards the player with an extra day. The player always initially spawns in one of the bedrooms.[5]

  • Slendrina, Granny’s granddaughter that makes a very minor appearance as a temporary ghost-like apparition
  • Slendrina’s mother, Granny’s daughter that was chained up inside of one of Granny’s walls[Note 1]

Notes

[edit]
  1. ^ a b Spider mother has the head of Slendrina’s mother, yet the actual mother of Slendrina in the game still has her own head.
  2. ^ There are repeated bloodstains in various locations around Granny’s house, carved text into furniture (eg: “Five Days” and “Leave this house”), and Granny’s bat already having blood before the player meets her for the first time.
  3. ^ A note, in cursive, that says “This is my fifth day in this house. She chases me wherever I go. I'm quite injured and my body hurts. The only thing I remember before I woke up in this house is that I was driving when my car suddenly broke down. I went out to see what the problem was when someone suddenly hit me in the back of the head. I have managed to open a pair of locks on the front door but that's all. Why does she do this? I hope no one will experience the same thing as I did. If I do not survive this and if someone finds this message, I have noticed that she sometimes hides things inside of fruits.”
