The player plays as Henry, an animator, who gets an invitation to his old workplace, an animation studio called SillyVision, by the owner of the studio, Joey Drew. Upon arriving, the place seems deserted and run through with ink pipes. Upon exploring, Henry finds the Ink Machine, as well as evidence that Joey began practicing with the occult, finding a mutilated corpse of Boris the Wolf, one of the cartoon characters appearing in Joey's cartoon posters. Henry searches around the workshop to find six items needed to power the machine: a manual, a Bendy plush, a cog, a record, a wrench, and an inkwell. Upon restoring power to the Ink Machine, Henry is attacked by a living ink version of one of the cartoon characters named 'Bendy'. Henry tries running to the exit, but the floor collapses and he falls into a secret underground room. Down there Henry takes a wood axe to defend himself. He enters a room with three coffins and a pentagram painted on the ground in ink. Somarinoa Plays Bendy and the Ink Machine (Part 2) When approaching the pentagram, Henry gets flashbacks of the Ink Machine, a wheelchair and one of 'Bendy' standing by his desk, while he's behind the boarded-up staircase, then passes out in the middle of it. Upon waking up, Henry begins to find more evidence of Joey and musical director Sammy Lawrence, who wears a Bendy mask and appears to be covered in ink.

Apparently stuck in the studio, Lawrence went crazy and started worshiping Bendy as a form of appeasement, believing that the cartoon devil was a literal demon.

Henry ends up in the Music Department of the studio, following tracks through recordings to find his way out. While trying to escape he encounters the Searchers, ink drops that form in humanoid figures and try to attack him.

Lawrence forces Henry to a chair and explains that he has to sacrifice Henry to 'Bendy' to return to normal.Īfter draining the pool of ink down, Henry is knocked unconscious from behind by Sammy Lawrence. When 'Bendy' arrives, he kills Lawrence instead while Henry escapes.
