DERE EVIL EXE is both a terrifying thriller with a gripping story and an unorthodox retro platformer with unique puzzles and obstacles.

In DERE EVIL EXE, you step into the tiny shoes of a silent hero named 'Knightly'. Knightly must jump, run, and manipulate environments in order to survive the heart-racing journey through a stunning pixel art world.

Within surreal structures lurk dangerous creatures known as 'corruptions'. They take the form of their creator's greatest fears. Their creepy creator, sporting a cunning visage of cheerfulness, hides in plain sight as she watches her prey fall deeper into her traps.

A GAME LOST IN TIME
Modern 2d side-scrolling game with levels inspired by the simplicity and aesthetics of 16-bit arcade classics of the 80s and anime shows in the 90s.

MELODIC MADNESS
The game plays either catchy retro chiptune music or ominous orchestral music, depending on the situation.

IMMERSIVE TALE OF HORROR
A completely new meta horror story that bends the Lovecraftian creepypasta genre in ways unseen in the video game world.

A STANDALONE SEQUEL
You don't need to have played the other story-based games and visual novels in the series to enjoy this one.

★★★★★ Ceithozoic · Mar 5, 2025

This game's story is good, and I completed the other games Dere Vengeance and other Dere EXE. I'm looking forward if you have another game to release. ^^

★★★★★ Faheem Muhaimin · Jul 29, 2026

Great game more polished than 1st dere EXE kara game. Level 4 wasn't that long like 1st dere EXE at 25 stage, but this game even though last stage not long but platform puzzles were much harder than I imagine. Boss battle was hard I've to fight 2 times with yanna. Lastly I get good end see dev is evil yanna & myles are ok they set fake avatar if dev try to delete. I've to admit app sir games like this really are unique platforms puzzles horror. This game has both end. I finish dere EXE 1 & 2.

★★☆☆☆ L&K productions · Aug 8, 2026

The game seemed like it had a great story, so I was excited to play, but I was heavily frustrated by the constant ads and finicky controls. I understand that ads are needed and can be paid for to be skipped, but it just seemed like the ads were integrated poorly in the free to play. The controls would sometimes feel way too small or just not work all together. These controls led to a cycle where I would die due to finicky controls that would Segway into more ads. Genuinely disappointed
