TOY BOX
A downloadable game for Windows, macOS, and Linux
Greetings to our newest toy inspector!
Today is your first day of work here at Toy Maker’s TOY BOX. At the end of their shelf life, it’s up to clever inspectors like you to decide which of the Maker’s creations are worth salvaging.
Pull apart stitches or rip off an arm or two; we support whatever you must do to ensure that you only save toys of the highest quality. Should you ever feel unsure, there’s no need to panic! Simply toss the trash where it belongs: the incinerator. After all, it’s of the utmost importance that inspectors upkeep the Maker’s image.
We look forward to your hard work here at the TOY BOX and congratulations – only the most special candidates have the honor of inspecting on behalf of the Maker!

I liked this game, but it so badly lacks a fourth secret ending! Right now it's like a cyclical circle, but it would be so cool if the choices and MC's thoughts were different after completing all three endings and revealing all the secrets, including the real name. I did it to see if there could be something different and if we could finally get a good ending, but no. Too bad, that would've been awesome! But thanks for your game anyway!
Absolutely loved this game! It was so amazingly creative like wow! Its execution was beautiful and well-thought in all aspects! I nearly teared up esp with Lil Lamb and Precious, like ugh they deserve so much better. They all do! -- well, except for Toe... I don't know about him lmao. I wanna know more about En Pointe though, she was truly the drama queen.
Our relationship with the Toy Maker was so interesting from start to finish (Inspector is such cutie though, I love all their whimsy dialogue). And while I am still left with some questions, it does make replaying the game all the more intriguing with how things come in perspective with each revelations we get in the endings. (And, small spoiler but the fact the name changestays once we get it, it is a cool detail!)
Overall, this game gives me a lot to ponder about! Every element from its writing, art direction, and music was truly and obviously well-crafted! It read like a fairy tale and its religious themes were very well integrated! Really amazing work!
