The Tooth Fae

Use the extraction tools displayed at the bottom of the screen strategically. Apply dream manipulation tools to lower lucidity when victims start stirring, use numbing agents before painful extractions to reduce pain spikes, and carefully time your actions to minimize fear accumulation. Each tool affects parameters differently, so choose wisely based on the victim's current state and characteristics.

The Tooth Fae provides multiple extraction tools selectable via mouse clicks or number keys (1-9 for quick switching). Tools include dream manipulation to reduce lucidity, numbing agents to control pain, various extraction implements for different tooth types, and fear management options. Learning which tools to deploy and when is crucial for successful extractions without killing victims or being discovered.

Victims have distinct characteristics that drastically change your approach. Heavy sleepers are easy targets requiring minimal lucidity management, while insomniacs wake easily and need constant attention. Children are extremely fragile and die from shock easily, whereas tough or numb adults can endure aggressive extraction. Horror fans and brave individuals resist fear better than cowardly or scaredy-cat types. Elders yield valuable gold teeth and crowns but may have other vulnerabilities.

Failures have serious consequences. If lucidity rises too high, victims wake to find you hovering over them—they'll never see again, and the Queen expresses displeasure. If pain or fear become excessive, fragile victims may die from shock with messages like 'The pain was too much for it' or 'Terror's icy grip too firm.' Multiple failures can make the town 'full of rumor,' potentially affecting future operations.

The game tracks numerous tooth types as collection percentage: Common teeth (baby teeth, adult teeth), degraded teeth (decay, cracks, yellow teeth), valuable teeth (gold teeth, crowns, polly whites from good hygiene), rare teeth (sparkling teeth from exceptionally clean individuals), and unique supernatural teeth (fangs from vampires, red teeth, glass teeth, wooden teeth). Target specific victim types to complete your collection—elders for gold, good hygiene individuals for sparkly teeth, and supernatural beings for rare specimens.

While rated 6+ technically, The Tooth Fae features disturbing psychological horror themes. You play as a malevolent entity causing pain and fear to sleeping victims, with consequences including death and permanent injury. The premise of extracting body parts from helpless people creates genuine discomfort. Parents should preview the game's dark content before allowing younger players, as the horror is more psychological than graphical but still unsettling.

Yes, The Tooth Fae is built with HTML5 technology and runs on both desktop computers and mobile devices through modern web browsers. Desktop players use keyboard and mouse controls for precise tool selection and parameter management, while mobile players use touch-screen controls optimized for the interface. No downloads or installations required—play instantly on Blue White Flag.

Completion time varies greatly depending on your collection goals and skill level. A basic playthrough focusing on simple extractions might take 1-2 hours, but achieving 100% tooth collection requires targeting specific victim types, which can extend gameplay significantly. The game features procedurally generated houses and victims, so thoroughly completing your collection could take 5-10+ hours as you search for rare tooth types.

Yes, The Tooth Fae uses browser storage to automatically save your progress. Your tooth collection percentage, discovered tooth types, and overall game state are preserved between sessions. You can return anytime to continue building your collection. However, clearing browser data or playing in incognito/private mode may prevent proper saving, so use regular browser mode for persistent progress.

The Tooth Fae's uniqueness lies in making YOU the monster rather than the victim. While most horror games have you running from threats, here you ARE the threat, creating psychological discomfort through role reversal. The game combines management strategy with horror—balancing lucidity, pain, and fear requires careful planning, not just jump scares. The darkly twisted premise ('we're helping them by taking their shiny teeth') adds moral complexity rarely found in horror games.

Target victims strategically based on teeth you need. Elders commonly have gold teeth and crowns. Individuals with good dental hygiene (non-smokers, brushers) yield sparkling polly white teeth. Seek supernatural targets like vampires for fangs and unique specimens. Check each victim's characteristics before starting—traits like 'doesn't brush' indicate poor tooth quality (decay, cracks), while clean-living individuals offer valuable specimens. The collection tracker shows percentages, helping identify which rare types you're still missing.

Currently, extraction animations play at a set speed and cannot be skipped or accelerated. Some players have requested this quality-of-life feature, especially for repeated extractions when hunting specific tooth types. The animations add to the unsettling atmosphere but can slow pacing during extended play sessions. For now, you'll need to watch each extraction sequence complete before moving to the next action.

The Queen is a mysterious overseer who tasks you with tooth collection and monitors your performance. She establishes the rules: victims must not wake to see you, and you should avoid killing them unnecessarily. When you fail—victims wake up, die from shock, or operations go poorly—the game states 'Queen was displeased.' The Queen's identity and motivations remain ambiguous, adding to the game's unsettling mystery about who you truly serve and why teeth must be collected.
