A downloadable game

Experience the chaotic duality of a dwarf Campbell hamster's life. Start in a perfect, gold-standard habitat, then take control and fulfill every tiny, destructive instinct. Hamstered is a physics-driven arcade game where meticulous biology meets glorious chaos, and your worst mistakes are your highest scores.

Core Gameplay

  • The Two Scores: Master the risk/reward loop of racking up Property Damage while managing your mounting Vet Bill.
  • Two Ways to Play: Go for a legendary, explosive Kamikaze Run, or become a Calculated Scoundrel who strategically cashes out.
  • The Crashbreaker Finale: Push your hamster to its absolute biological limit to trigger a final, spectacular, run-ending explosion of destruction.

The Hamster

  • Navigate a sprawling 2008 bedroom not designed for you. Drive RC cars, climb precarious shelves, and explore.
  • A deep simulation drives behavior, from procedural movement to authentic stress responses.
  • Manage health with a diet of biologically accurate items, from essential seeds to dubious treats.

Key Features

  • Biologically Accurate Slapstick: A unique design framework where real hamster ethology and veterinary science fuel the physics comedy.
  • A Strategic Playground: Every object is a potential for chaos or consequence. Plan your route of destruction.
  • A Nostalgic World: Explore a densely packed, era-specific environment full of hidden opportunities for mayhem.
  • No Simple Pet Sim: This is a game about agency, instinct, and the tragicomic physics of being very small in a very large world.
