The Ruined Critters are small, torn, living Smiling Critters toys that fill the Playhouse. They swarm the Player, back away from flares, and take over DogDay's body.
In the Playhouse
They crawl out of holes in the Playhouse walls, growling and laughing like children. A flare from the Flare Hand makes them back off.
DogDay explains them. The little toys follow CatNap to avoid his punishment, and they are fed in return. They want to crawl under the Player's skin, he says, and eat them bit by bit.
A million pairs of eyes are on you now. Watching, waiting, hungry.
DogDay
Dozens of them come out of the cell walls and climb into DogDay through his wounds. They move his body, and they chase the Player with it.
