Pollex is a first-person horror game from solo developer Kooky Studios, built entirely in Unreal Engine 5 with hand-crafted, non-AI assets. You descend into an underground thumb-war fight pit to settle a debt you cannot pay.
The rules are simple - grip, pin, win - but down here nobody plays clean. You bet your own fingers on every match, taking opponents' digits as trophies and losing yours if you slip. It is scheduled for a 2026 release.
It is a wonderfully unsettling twist on a childhood game, equal parts grime and dread.
