Encierro is a top-down action game, with a cel-shaded art style and elements of an endless runner.

The player is in control of a bull who is rampaging through the streets of Spain.

The goal of the game is to escape the city, while causing as much destruction as possible.

It is a Game Jam project that was created in two and a half days.
The theme of the Game Jam was 'You are the Villain.'
