Marrow in the Stockyards
A downloadable game for Windows, macOS, and Linux
Toronto, 1928. Frostbitten and pious. Decay creeps just beneath the glittering splendour of the age. Work in a slaughterhouse and surrender to the atrophy of conscience, flesh, and reality itself.
CN: gore, death, meat, rot
Much of this game takes place in a slaughterhouse and meatpacking plant. Lives are ended, intestines and minds are unwound.
Part of the NaNoRenO 2025 game jam!
