We’ve all had nightmares where we’re being chased. Chased by people, monsters, in my case apes a fair few times. It’s universal, and it’s haunting, often with fleeting moments of panic following us into the waking world. I’m not sure that this is what the intention was behind The Eternal Cylinder, but it’s definitely the feeling I came away with.

The Eternal Cylinder, despite that introduction, is actually about evolution. The game takes place on an absurd, surreal, and flat alien world which is under threat of being undone and restarted entirely by a giant rolling cylinder, intent on flatting the world as if it’s a rolling pin on a piece of dough. You’ll take control of a game of Trebhums, small, fat, ugly creatures which have the undeniable ability to inhale and consume all manner of things.
