Last month, developer Bad Vices Games released Ravenous Devils across multiple platforms, but for one reason or another, it's flown a bit under the radar. The bizarre game is described as a «horror cooking simulator,» and it's getting some renewed attention thanks to a viral TikTok video that draws comparisons between it and the classic musical Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street, which also had a film adaptation starring Johnny Depp in the title role.
The TikTok video, uploaded by user madmorph, shows off some Ravenous Devils gameplay while explaining the basic premise. In the game, players control Percival and Hildred. Percival runs a tailor shop, while Hildred runs a pub. The two work together to kill people, with Percival selling the victims' clothes back to the public and Hildred using the corpses to make meals that she then feeds to her customers.
