Slayaway Camp is a darkly comedic sliding puzzle game that pays homage to 1980s VHS horror cinema. You play as Skullface, an adorable but deadly voxel-based slasher out for revenge on teenage camp counselors. Players must slide across isometric grids, avoiding obstacles like cops, traps, and innocent cats, to reach their targets. With its clever mechanics, hilarious mini-games, and hundreds of cleverly designed levels, it's a puzzle game that constantly surprises.
Dinsun Expert Review
Our Expert Score
Slayaway Camp is brilliant. It takes the sliding block puzzle genre and injects it with an absolutely hilarious, blocky 1980s slasher movie aesthetic. Figuring out the exact sequence of moves to slide Skullface around the map to take out the camp counselors without getting trapped is immensely satisfying.
The difficulty curve is absolutely spot on. The game introduces new mechanics—like cops, landmines, and cats you aren't supposed to hurt—at just the right pace to keep your brain engaged. The 'Gorepack' kill animations are surprisingly funny due to the voxel art style. Highly recommended for puzzle fans!
Features

Unlockable killers based on horror tropes
Comical voxel-based gore

Tips & Walkthrough
You can only move in straight lines until you hit an obstacle. Plan your routes backward from the final target to the start to figure out which walls you need to bounce off of.
Gameplays
Slide across the map to eliminate all counselors, then find your way to the pentagram exit to complete the scene.

Q&A
No, the game uses blocky, Minecraft-style voxel graphics, making the gore comical and cartoonish rather than realistic.

Great Puzzle Game
Sat Dec 30 2017 PsychUOut13This game nailed a deadly combo of engaging, challenging, interesting puzzles with over-the-top horror and graphic violence. Granted, said violence is in the form of cartoony block characters, so it’s a sickening twist of comically cute gore. As a pretty “old” gamer, this adult themed game reminds me of the Wii game Madworld, which ended up sucking because the game itself was extremely repetitive and too boring for the gore to save it. Slayaway Camp instead is a great game packaged in a gory case. It will keep the most serious of us puzzlers occupied for hours and give us a few giggles and satisfying Mortal Kombat type finish moves along the way. The gameplay reminds me of my favorite mobile game of all time, King Rabbit, with cute murderers rather then cute bunnies. If you like this or that, you will like the other. I’ve never felt so guilty busting a smile or chuckle once in a while. What a game. Well done developers! Update: Still loving this. I was afraid the variety would end and the game would get boring after the first few camps. Wrong! You have to play to appreciate, but the police, telephones, swat team people, and light switches make the puzzles practically limitless. The cats are my favorite - game is about killing people, but touch or drown a cat and you’re busted for animal cruelty. This game = epic!
And now for something completely different.
Sat Oct 14 2017 frankielanderIn a world where most puzzle games are a variation of Candy Crush (which is really a variation of Tetris,) it’s refreshing to see something completely different, especially if you’re a fan of horror films. Not only is the main game strategy based, and with no shortage of levels and playable characters, but there’s also the “Faces of Killed” sub game which is more of a mindless time waster. And while I’ve had this app for a while, I never got around to rating it, however, the recent induction of Bob as a playable character was epic enough that I had to finally do so.
Awesome nostalgic puzzle fun
Sun Oct 15 2017 ShortBusDriverUPDATE review for updated game. Holy cow this game just keeps getting better. Developer just added more free levels and they rock. Slayaway camp is a hoot. It's just a puzzle game but the hilarious way it's presented is the best part. Even when you fail it's a joy hearing the closing credit song and seeing the credits roll. Different cast just about every time lol. It pokes fun at all those silly 80's slasher movies we grew up on in a way that makes me want to see them all again. Levels are presented in an old video store style that’s so funny.
Could you (maybe) fix a (possible) glitch
Thu May 07 2020 Really, impeccable.First off, I love the new update. I’ve always wanted to play the Santa’s Slay levels but couldn’t be bothered to download the Steam version, and the new NC-17 stuff is great as well, but there is a problem. I’ve always loved the VHS boxes, as they have always been fun to read, but now when I tap them, they just exit out of the VHS. Is that supposed to happen? Is that just a new part of the game? Also I can’t buy the Street Sweeper in the shop
I Forgot About This Game.
Mon Aug 03 2020 Shard of GlassWhen I first saw this game which was around 3 or 4 years ago, I bought it and had a lot of fun with it! I had to buy some solutions but most of them were really fun and not too difficult. I loved beating the levels and watching the after level death scene. I really hope this game gets featured somewhere else on a bigger platform or advertiser. Good Job with this and please make a second game!
Freaking hilarious
Fri Sep 08 2017 PithyErmineIf you're an 80's slasher fan, this game hits every trope in the funniest way possible. I like that it has a not gory PG setting that you can switch back and forth, so if your kids (or nieces, nephews, younger siblings, sensitive cats, whatever) want to play, you can turn off the gore and hand it over. For adults though, leave it on the R seeing for maximum hilarity!
A great way to kill some time
Sun Aug 20 2017 StumbleFingersThese puzzles are intense and they'll tie your brain in knots, but solving them is so satisfying. The movie references and goofy humor are a big plus but buy it for the puzzles! So let's talk about the elephant in the room... the trendy "blockcraft" graphics are awful and they drag the game down. It's hard to figure out what's going on in some of the animations. Thankfully the puzzles have an overhead view to help you sort out the more congested levels.
5-Star Game
Wed Dec 06 2017 KarokYes, my title says “5-Star Game”, but I’ve dropped it a star with my rating. This in ONLY because the game needs an iPhone X screen size update. It quickly becomes frustrating to load an app/game with so much unused screen space. The game itself is an incredibly awesome puzzle game, with great graphics and perfect sounds to accompany. Gameplay is simple, yet finding the solutions to the puzzles is far from easy.
