Dec. 2025
Home is a minimalist 2D horror game where you explore a quiet house and piece together what happened through small environmental details and subtle choices. There’s very little guidance, and the story shifts depending on how you interpret and interact with what you find. What I really liked is how understated it is. The game relies on atmosphere, ambiguity, and your own assumptions rather than explicit scares. It quietly messes with your perception of events, making you question what’s real and what isn’t. It’s short, simple, and surprisingly effective — a great example of how horror can work through suggestion and mood rather than spectacle.

A great and short experience that I've played through 3 or 4 times before. I've always loved the open ended structure of the narrative and the overall style of the game! Very thought provoking and intelligent game.

Eerie lil game, yes I say lil because it only takes about 30min - 1 hr to finish. For all the achievements you need to finish the game at least three times. Doable. ---------------------------------------- Play this game if: - You want to solve a mystery in a creepy pixel world of dried blood and skeletal remnaints - You want to feel constantly worried, but not scared (this is NOT a horror game thou creepy) - You want to be entertained for a few short hours (worth it) Do Not play this game if: - You are looking for a horror game. This is creepy but not spooky. - You are looking for a Point&Click game, this is not really it - If you are looking for a game with high replay value Verdict: 6.5/10

Home is a spooky, bite-sized horror experience that I enjoyed. It didn't overstay its welcome and did what it wanted to do well. I play on replaying it to get different outcomes. I do wish it had some kind of chapter select or path tree where you could see what choices you've made and what ones you haven't, since you move so slow and have to re-do a lot of the same things (as others have pointed out). Still, it's worth a play if you enjoy anything creepy!

wonderful game, as the name suggest, it's unique. A blend of horror and the "choose your own adventure" without you realizing it. Personally really loved all the writing.
