The full picture

Written from verified facts; labels mark how strong each statement's evidence is.

01

What we know

BOOMER is a co-op horror adventure from Wumbo Workshop for 1-6 players, listed as 'coming soon' on Steam.

You journey through The Understage — a scary place where discarded Wumpets (felt creatures) are forgotten.

It spans Action/Adventure/Casual/Indie: spooky vibes with a comedic, party-game edge.

02

The Boomer mechanic

Your worst pal Boomer is an anxious little fella — if you get distracted or hold him too long, he blows you all into little felt pieces.

You must keep passing him to a teammate while escaping monstrous foes and the ominous fog.

The game is designed around the panic of juggling Boomer mid-escape — teamwork and callouts are everything (BOUNDED: official Steam description, checked 2026-08-25).

03

What to expect

Expect a mix of hide-and-seek horror and hot-potato chaos — short sessions, big laughs, sudden deaths.

Wishlist it on Steam to get the launch notification; no release date has been announced yet.

If you like co-op party horror (think Lethal Company vibes with felt puppets), this is one to watch.
