Having your own house at just 18 years old might sound like a dream come true—think independence and your own space, all before you can legally drink in the US! But in the case of Your House, this dream might turn into a nightmare because this seemingly cozy home harbors a dark side.
In this gripping text-based adventure, you step into the shoes of Debbie, a young woman who, on her 18th birthday, faces expulsion from school, betrayal by her best friend, and being hit by a car. With nothing left to lose, Debbie receives a mysterious key and a letter that leads her to the enigmatic house. Driven by curiosity and desperation, she embarks on a journey to uncover the secrets hidden within its walls.
As Debbie, you'll confront dozens of escape room-style puzzles, all while a mysterious figure lurks on the sidewalk, watching your every move. You'll need to harness all your ingenuity to ensure Debbie survives this thrilling ordeal.
Now, I might be painting Your House as more sinister than it truly is. But there's an undeniable spooky undercurrent to this puzzle game as you explore the nooks and crannies of your new home. With rich visuals complementing the text-based narrative, it's definitely worth exploring.
Be prepared for some intense tapping, though. While our reviewer Catherine praised Your House, she noted the need for a bit of patience due to the tapping required. If you're willing to take your time and scrutinize each screen, the slow-burn pace can be rewarding.
