Indie game Take Out the Trash is deceptively basic. Every day, you wake. Go outside. Remove rubbish. Return to your room and sleep. Since October 6, 2006, repeating this routine throws your supposedly healthy life off.
The game Take Out the Trash requires you to be a nice kid by not waking your parents, bringing out the trash every night, and even pondering a life of sleeping, trashing, and repeating. Day by day, from October 6 to 14, you will realize:
The game teases a mysterious entity called K by the community that appears and disappears. It's not scary, but it shows up when you're not ready, like when you forget to close the door, fall asleep quickly, or don't pay attention to what's going on around you.
Even though it seems boring, the game's plot keeps building. Every night, uneasiness builds up, making trashing—a minor task—your worst concern during the day.
Despite its simple gameplay, no loading screens, appealing graphics, and clear language, Take Out the Trash has its own rhythm. It uses jump scares sparingly but builds instability.
This spooky slice of life game is amazing since you live in a loop till it's not normal.
