Exploring a familiar yet unsettling home with deliberate pixel-art puzzles, frequent saving, and a quiet tension that recalls classic RPGMaker horror.

What players say

Players appreciate this free RPGMaker-style horror game for its story, multiple endings, and chase sequences, but many note that the controls are clunky and movement feels blocky.
