About This Game

Mind the Clown is a short (less than an hour long) stealth horror game that lets you explore a cursed circus.


Take on the role of Mike, a lonely child who has suffered a tragic accident. Now in critical condition, your thoughts fixate on a single dream: a visit to the circus. As your life hangs by a thread, a demonic entity grants your final wish.
