Oh look, it's a cute bunny doll! Aww, isn't it fuzzy? Wait, what the... who would do that to a stuffed animal?!! Come on, folks. It's Detarou. Did you really expect anything different? That's right, they've sprinkled some more of their bizarre escape game magic in their latest title, Zakari. Can you blame them, though? It's like we can't get enough of the craziness. I mean you, not we... I, uh, only played it because I had to. (That was believable, right?)
You'll have a changing cursor to help you identify hotspots and an inventory to interact with, as is usual in Detarou games. And of course there's the all helpful save feature, which will assist you as you discover all three endings (assuming you remember to use it). While their humor isn't for everyone, those who do play it are promised some code deciphering, ninja kicking and Panda revenge!
