About Ape Out

Ape Out is an action and adventure game developed by Gabe Cuzzillo and published by Devolver Digital, released on 28 February 2019.

Ape Out is a wildly intense and colorfully stylized smash ‘em up about primal escape, rhythmic violence, and frenetic jazz. Build up nearly unstoppable momentum and use your captors as both weapons and shields to crush everyone on your procedurally generated path to freedom.

Ape Out is a frenetic, top-down beat 'em up with a stark, minimalist art style and a reactive, all-percussion jazz soundtrack. The player takes control of a powerful gorilla desperate to break free from captivity, smashing and hurling its way through maze-like corridors. Armed guards stand in the way at every turn, and the ape must grab, throw, and crush them or use their own bodies as living shields to survive. Across four chapters, the story is a wordless, visceral surge of raw momentum as the captive fights toward one primal goal: freedom.
