Dere Evil Exe (stylized as DERE EVIL EXE) is an indie platformer and horror video game developed by Darius Immanuel Guerrero and published by AppSir Games. It was released on May 29, 2018, on iOS, where it is adware with the option for an ad-free purchase,[1] July 2, 2018, for Android[2] and on July 3, 2018, for Windows as a paid game.[3] A standalone sequel to previous indie games Sorority Rites and The Last Yandere, and a remake of the freeware game DERE EXE, the game is based on creepypasta stories about retro games, and has a self-aware story that breaks the fourth wall. Nominally a masocore fantasy platformer in which the player controls a knight character, Knightly, on a quest to save a princess, the game's rules are skewed, and the player is soon warned not to trust the game's developer messages or its assistant AI, AIDE (Artificial Intelligence for Dere Exe). The game received mixed reviews from critics, who praised the story, but were split on whether the gameplay was of high quality.
