Winnie's Hole Is New Game Where You Live as a Virus Inside Winnie the Pooh

As a longtime enthusiast of both classic literature and video games, I must say that the upcoming title “Winnie’s Hole” has piqued my curiosity to no end. Having grown up with Winnie the Pooh stories, it’s fascinating to witness such an unusual spin on this beloved character. The blend of roguelike and deckbuilding genres is intriguing, especially when set against the backdrop of a virus-infected Pooh.


In 2022, after entering the public domain, Winnie the Pooh has inspired some unusual new media. One of the most notable examples being the film “Winnie the Pooh: Blood and Honey,” where Pooh was transformed into a slasher character. Now, with both a “Blood and Honey” sequel already released this year and a third one in production, Winnie Pooh will be making his video game debut in “Winnie’s Hole.” Players will assume control of a virus residing within the beloved Winnie the Pooh.

Created by Twice Different studio, the game titled “Winnie’s Hole” is a unique blend of roguelike and deckbuilding gaming styles. In this game, you’ll craft a deck of actions that can be utilized to transform your own take on Pooh. Over time, the lovable character gradually morphs into a monstrous being capable of infecting and attacking its former companions in the Hundred Acre Wood.

As a passionate gamer excited about “Winnie’s Hole”, I was initially looking forward to its release in 2023, but unfortunately, there’s been a pushback in the schedule. Despite this setback, I’m happy to report that the game is still under development and will eventually grace PC platforms at an unspecified date. In the meantime, the developers, Twice Different, have just dropped a brand-new gameplay trailer for “Winnie’s Hole” today, giving us a tantalizing glimpse into the game. On top of that, they’ve also made a demo available on Steam, allowing eager gamers like me to download and experience a sneak peek right now!
