Gameplay We Want Your Head is a horror-themed arcade game inspired by the 1970s classic Whac-A-Mole .The mechanics are simple — press the correct number on your keyboard to smash the emerging heads.As the pace increases, mistakes become inevitable, and every wrong move brings you closer to the end. You have 3 lives — miss three times, and the execution machine comes for you.This time, it’s your head on the line. Every hit counts, and every mistake creates extra pressure. Atmosphere The game draws inspiration from retro 3D aesthetics of the PS1 era , blending it with the unsettling vibe of an arcade that should never have existed .Flickering screens, dirty textures, distorted digits, and grotesque heads create a constant feeling of dread and inevitability.This isn’t a nostalgic trip down memory lane — it’s a nightmare that remembers how much fun you used to have. Will you keep your head on your shoulders? We Want Your Head is a tribute to classic arcade games — but this time, the price isn’t just your coins... It’s your life . Will you dare to play?
