About Bad Kids
Bad Kids is a pixel game set in 1990s China, with light puzzle-solving and platforming. You help Wang Han, a sixth-grade student at a small southwestern town’s machinery factory, overcome obstacles, uncover the truth behind the events and face up to his mistakes.
Wang Han’s story
During a wave of layoffs and social change, the factory’s adults lose focus on work and spend their days wandering. For Wang Han, this means time away from class to skip school, steal and play video games. His rebellious behavior makes him an outsider to his peers and earns him a reputation as a bad child among teachers and adults. Their rejection pushes him further in the wrong direction, and he starts spending time with delinquent youths. As he grows older, his words and actions become more extreme. After witnessing a shooting, he realizes he has fallen into an abyss of wrongdoing.
The 1990s setting
The game draws on childhood experiences and nostalgic details from the 1990s, alongside criminal elements and a plot with multiple reversals. Its pixel art conveys the game’s story and atmosphere. The story takes about 3–4 hours.
