About Petal
Petal is a short stealth horror game about an errand that goes badly. Ana's mom sends her out for fertilizer from the flower shop down the street, but once she's inside, it's obvious something is very wrong, and your job is to keep her alive.
It's built in a soft, low-poly 3D style with a fuzzy retro filter, and the characters are cute in a way that makes the danger feel worse. You move Ana with the arrow keys, interact with Space, and when things get tense you can duck into a box and wait it out.
A full run takes a few minutes, which makes it easy to play Petal online in one sitting and then go back for a cleaner, quieter run.
How to Play Petal
- Click inside the game window so it picks up your keys, then choose Play.
- Move Ana with the arrow keys.
- Press Space to interact with things around the shop.
- Hide in a box when you need to, and press X to climb back out.
- Press Tab to open the menu, and Tab again to go back a screen.
- Press F1 or 1 to hide the mouse cursor if it gets in the way.
What Makes Petal Scary
Petal is scary because it does not look like it should be. Bright flowers, bunny-eared characters and gentle colors set you up for something sweet, and then the shop turns into a place where hiding is how you survive.
Expect horror themes and stealth tension. It's short, so the scares come quickly and the whole thing fits into a few minutes.
Tips for Petal
- Click into the game window before you press anything, or the arrow keys may scroll your browser instead of moving Ana.
- Use boxes as safe spots. Get in, wait, and only press X when the coast looks clear.
- Hide the cursor with F1 or 1 so it does not sit in the middle of the screen while you sneak.
- Move in short bursts and stop often. In a stealth horror game, rushing is the quickest way to get caught.
- If you get caught, think about where you were seen and take a different route. Petal free in the browser means a retry is one click away.
Who Made Petal
Petal was made by 13-23, who released it on itch.io. It's built with Godot and Blender. Partway through development, 13-23's keyboard broke, so the project was cut down and finished using only a mouse and an on-screen keyboard. The Simplified Chinese translation is by K仔不摸鱼. FunClicker embeds the creator's own version so you can play it here without downloading anything. We did not make the game, and the credit for its design, code, and art belongs to its creator. You can find the original on the Petal page on itch.io.

How do you play Petal?

Is Petal scary?
Yes, in a creeping way. Petal looks cute, with soft colors and gentle character designs, but it's a stealth horror game where Ana has to survive inside a flower shop that has gone wrong. It's short, so the tension builds fast, and there are horror themes throughout.
Who made Petal?
Petal was made by 13-23 and released on itch.io. It's built with Godot and Blender, and the Simplified Chinese translation is by K仔不摸鱼. When their keyboard broke midway through development, 13-23 finished the game using only a mouse and an on-screen keyboard.
Can I play Petal on a Chromebook or phone?
A Chromebook is fine, since all you need are the arrow keys, Space, Tab and X. Phones are a poor fit, because Petal is played on a keyboard. If you're on a laptop or Chromebook, click inside the game window before you start so the arrow keys move Ana.
Is Petal unblocked at school?
Petal unblocked depends on the network you're on. The game runs in a browser tab with no download, so there's nothing to install on a school computer. Whether it opens is decided by the school's own filters, which we do not control.
What is the story of Petal?
Ana's mom gives her a quick errand: fetch some fertilizer from the flower shop nearby. When she gets there, something inside the shop is badly wrong. You guide Ana through it and try to keep her safe, hiding whenever you need to and moving only when it feels safe.
Can you hide in Petal?
Yes. Hiding is a big part of Petal. You can get into boxes to stay out of sight, and pressing X gets you back out. Since it's a stealth horror game, knowing when to hide and when to move is most of what keeps Ana alive.
