As the player tips and turns the beast to reach the cherry, Chuchel slides around the tubes like a kid in a fast food restaurant playplace. Upon Chuchel’ s entry of the body, the creature’s organs reveal themselves as a warped, maze-like playground. After fighting past swarms of teeth, the player must rotate the beast in order to help Chuchel navigate the labyrinth of tubes. This prompts Chuchel to jump inside in order to save their precious treat.

Near the end of its journey, a large fuzzy beast swallows the fruit. The eponymous Chuchel spends most of the game searching for a lost cherry. Due to this persisting theme appearing it feels necessary to unpack why video games continue to return to the theme of being trapped in or adventuring through another’s body.

But these instances appear in games all the way back to the Atari and are still showing in titles as recent as God of War (2018). Vore levels come in many forms sometimes they’re familiar, other times they’re completely alien. Why have there been so many levels in games that put the player inside of another’s body? If there was only one major example one, or even a few coincidental cases, then maybe it could be chalked up to the visions of individual developers, but this has been a long repeating pattern for decades now. This fact has seemingly gone without mention for decades but the evidence is everywhere.
