Summary

Bendy and the Ink Machine! I am SO excited about this game. The world of Bendy is a throwback to the earliest days of cartoon animation. I love the look and feel -- but most of all, I love the MYSTERY. You see, Bendy and the Ink Machine is a game with a lot under the surface. When you actually look at characters like Bendy, Boris, and Alice, you start to see parallels to some of the most famous cartoons in history, and you start to piece together a dark truth about the early days of animation. You learn about Disney's conspiracy theory to be the pioneer of a new age of animation...at the expense of perhaps some of the most innovative cartoonists of all time. THAT is the SECRET story of BENDY!
