We are Appnormals (makers of STAY, Frank and Drake & Terracotta) and we are very proud to officially reveal Bighorn Ramone today! Bighorn Ramone is an atmospheric 3D first-person psychological horror game coming here to Steam.
Set within a historic, newly renovated sports arena, Bighorn Ramone plunges players into a terrifying temporal anomaly: a 1986 championship basketball game that never ended. To survive, you must step onto the court trapped inside a heavy, stifling mascot suit that refuses to come off.
Watch the Teaser Trailer:
In Bighorn Ramone, your only window to the world is the tiny, restrictive mouth slit of a mascot costume. With a radically restricted field of view and suffocating tension, what you cannot see in your peripheral vision is exactly what you should fear.
Guided and oppressed by a towering, unforgiving Jumbotron, you must perform bizarre physical challenges for a ghostly crowd, solve atmospheric puzzles, and navigate the pitch-black corridors of an arena built on top of a cursed past. To escape this punishing loop, you must uncover the dark conspiracy of that fatal 1986 championship night and rewrite the final before the arena decides yours.
Key Features:
Suffocating Mascot Perspective: Experience true claustrophobia with a heavily restricted FOV designed to induce maximum environmental anxiety.
Jumbotron-Driven Tension: Execute precise, high-stakes physical challenges under extreme time pressure to satisfy a demanding audience.
1980s Retro Mystery: Navigate a dual-layered venue, shifting between a modern arena and the haunted ruins of its cursed past.
A True Spiritual Successor: Crafted with passion by our small, dedicated indie team, marking a proud return to the deep, atmospheric psychological tension that made our debut title, STAY, an award-winning indie gem.
"With Bighorn Ramone, we wanted to take physical restraint and sensory deprivation to a whole new level," says Iñaki Diaz Acedo, Studio Lead at Appnormals. "Being the mascot is usually about bringing joy, but inside this suit, under the glare of both the Jumbotron and a crowd of frightening fans, it becomes a desperate battle for survival. It's a raw, passionate project that brings us right back to our psychological thriller roots."
Bighorn Ramone is currently in Beta and scheduled for a digital release on Steam in Q4 2026.
