Bendy and the Ink Machine: Reece's Story

Chapter 1's menu screen

## Chronology

Isn't it funny how this fangame had more "cartoon in real life"-like whimsical elements than the actual game?

Other than the lack of anything to do, the tone of this game being too serious for "OC in game", the sub-pixeling, and the poor grammar, it had stuff that was pretty original when it started to branch out from the original game.

## Overview

### Chapter 1

Reece get's a letter from Joey Drew asking him to come back after 30 years. He wants to show the other something. Reece walks into the studio, speaking out loud asking what joey wanted to show him. Going up and through the first door to your left will lead you to Henry's old office, it is here where Reece comments on how he wonders about how Henry is doing now. You can't really interact with anything in the office (nor the whole studio, to be frank), but if you talk to the bendy cut-outs around the studio, a little message saying "Hmm...i don't remember having a bendy cut-out here". Going the way upwards, after a bit of walking, you'll find Joey's book 'The illusion of living' and a key, Reece takes them both. After a bit more exploring, you find the locked room where when you enter, bendy will show up. He asks Reece to 'join him in bringing Saten's revenge'. It is also revealed here that Bendy forged the letter Reece got. Reece yells hell no and then a chase scene commences. You have to make your way back to the starting area and go through the now open door.

After Bendy talks about how Reece will never escape him because where ink goes, he does. You walk down the hallway and into another room where you also go down to leave. This will start a cutscene where Reece walks down the 'hall' where he exclaims that he's lucky he left as early as he did from there. This is then when Sammy comes up behind him and knocks him out. Him saying 'Rest your head...it's time for bed' is the last sentence before the chapter ends.

### Chapter 4

Reece does an extendo arm and kills some ink blob monster.

Off-topic, but the concept of entering the cartoon world via projectors to get something for a puzzle is absolutely genius and I'm so mad that the actual BATIM never did anything like that, instead opting for puzzle scenarios you can find in any other horror game.

### Chapter 5

The chapter where you play as Bendy. It starts with 6 of Bendy's followers are absorbed by a giant Reece-ink-mass. Bendy makes his way to the ink machine before switching the point of view back to Reece.

### Chapter 6

Oh no the Bendy fight is far more accurate to "cartoon to life" than the actual BATIM's fight with Bendy, even if this game's execution of it is admittedly lacking.

Anyway, Bendy is chopped in half by closing the projector into the cartoon world. Dang.

In total, 8.
