About

Cute Things Dying Violently is a single player arcade platformer game with a fantasy theme. It was developed by ApathyWorks, LLC and was released on September 2, 2015. It received neutral reviews from critics and mostly positive reviews from players.

Cute Things Dying Violently is all about saving a bunch of hapless Critters. Launch them around to get them safely out of each level. Dodge lethal spikes, buzzsaws, fire, and hateful robots. And, if a few dozen (or hundred) of them get turned into charred, smoking husks in your attempt to save them... there's the old saying about omelettes and breaking eggs. Broken, bloody eggs.

    The gameplay centers around a simple, "flick" mechanic reminiscent of Angry Birds, combined with puzzle-platforming elements. While some find it addictive and enjoyable as a casual time filler with unique critter-tossing mechanics, others feel it becomes repetitive and grindy due to its simplicity and mobile-focused design. Overall, it mixes familiar mechanics with some added variety but can lack depth for more experienced players.

    • “A fun little time burner combines Angry Birds and Cut the Rope mechanics with added cute things getting torn apart.”
    • “Cute little puzzle-platformer with a unique, critter-tossing central mechanic and a ton of other mechanics to keep things interesting as you go along.”
    • “Gameplay is very addictive, somewhere close to Angry Birds.”
    • “The core gameplay was way too simple and became grindy and repetitive rather quickly.”
    • “You could also view it as a dumbed down version of Lemmings but mechanically this is much simpler and much more tablet-focused.”
    • “This one uses the tired and old flinger angle mechanic like the one used to fling the birds in Angry Birds.”
