Silly Polly Beast launches on October 28, 2025 for PC (Steam). It is developed by Andrei Chernyshov and published by Top Hat Studios, Inc. You play a girl who escapes a brutal shelter and descends into a hostile underworld, facing grotesque creatures and a sentient “beast” that tests her resolve. Combat is fast and aggressive with limited ammo, quick swaps, and powers that grow as you study the monster’s nature.

Review
Silly Polly Beast aims for momentum and bite. Encounters push you to commit, weave in utility items, and reposition rather than turtle. Weapons feel purpose built, with tight reload windows and short effective ranges that keep you close to danger. The world has a grungy, otherworldly tone that sits between survival horror and action shooter, and the writing frames Polly as active rather than a victim, which helps the darker beats land. Exploration is compact. You poke into side rooms for crafting pieces and lore scraps, then loop back into fights that escalate enemy mixes.
Pacing matters. The story teases a mystery around the beast, and the best moments are the ones where narrative and mechanics meet, like forced loadout constraints that map to Polly’s state of mind. A couple of caveats. If hit reactions are inconsistent or the ammo economy gets stingy, frustration spikes fast, and late‑game arenas will need smart checkpointing. Visual clarity in darker spaces is another watch item on PC, especially for mid‑range GPUs. If the team threads difficulty and feedback, this could punch above its budget.
Verdict: punchy, moody shooter that lives on crisp feedback and honest resource tension.
