Tie-ins like this are almost always forgettable, but Piglet's Big Game is enjoying a second lease of life thanks to the fact that it's being compared to horror classics like Resident Evil and Silent Hill (thanks, Destructoid).
The game's soundtrack – composed by Doki Denki Studio's Philippe Codecco and Guillaume Saurel – is surprisingly dark and spooky, and this has led to the game going viral on social media.
Check out this music – does it sound like it was composed for a game aimed at kids?
Amazingly, one Twitter user even spotted that Akira Yamaoka used the same sound in the recent Silent Hill 2 remake, a fact which led some people to falsely claim that Yamaoka was behind the music for Piglet's Big Game.
In the wake of @jaxonloid's tweet, many other people have picked up Piglet's Big Game and are finding that the music is very fitting for the on-screen action, a lot of which involves Piglet entering dark, foreboding spaces to face his fears – a common theme with the character across the decades.
As is so often the case when a piece of physical media goes viral, Piglet's Big Game is now selling for inflated prices online:
