Maggot Baits
Maggot BaitsOnce born into this world, you must live. That is the single truth that exists for all life in the beginning. Mentors and models to follow, the will to do good and abhor evil—are all a fiction we learn later, a fiction known as "ideology". Living this fiction is what makes us human. But do we need such ideology to be human, as we do our limbs? Does that make those who lose or abandon such ideology less than human—does it make them limbless maggots? If so, then this tale is devoid of humans—it is a tale of maggots. Crawling to survive, like the maggots we are. ​Maggot baits​, winner of the 2015 Moege Awards Top Fetish game, is the newest title from ClockUp, the studio that brought us the infamous erotic thriller, ​euphoria. Do you have what it takes to stomach this dark and violent tale, maggot?
