This was one of the best games I've played on this website. The atmosphere the music it was too good. It started out slow but it picked up real quick and did not let up. Would highly recommend to anyone who loves psychological horror
I Loved this Game! Im very new at youtube I hope I showed the game off well in my video. Im still learning how to pay attention to the game while recording so I know I missed some things. I loved uncovering the story and the feelings of the MC. Also the interactions with doors/cabinets/toilets feels much better than most games. Going to play that Building 71 Game SOON!! <3 <3
here's some theories about what we think what happened to help clear some stuff up.
- the grostoli that the woman (we named her caroline slash karen) was the thing that made the protagonist start to lucinate. it was kind of random for her to give us some food that we don't take any effects from, especially because she literally went inside our house somehow??
- near the end, he winds up in the same place where the man was in the VHS tapes, with the red lines. but how could the man have filmed inside of his mind? as we watch the VHS tapes, it is described to us what happens, and we don't actually see it unfold. this could have just been because not knowing is scarier, or it could have been because it didn't happen physically, but instead inside of the protagonist's mind. the tapes may have just been part of his hallucinations.
- this might be obvious, but in his hallucinations at the end, jessica his wife told him to "join them." jessica and the baby, as we know, are both dead when the wife bled out in the car. this is implying that in his hallucinations his wife asked him to kill himself. in the bad ending he does and in the good ending he doesn't.
anyways that was LITERALLY the best horror game i have played. i HIGHLY recommend scary cube's other game the building 71 incident!
the only thing i would say that could be improved is that picking stuff up and opening the boxes and stuff is kind of hard with the scrolling thing, but it's not a big deal.
once again this game was sooooo good at everything, left room for a lot of food for thought and even with the storyline i would say it's somewhat of a sandbox game. it literally gave us goosebumps it was so good at keeping an eerie atmosphere! 10000000000000/10 would recommend!
Отличнейший хоррор, один из лучших в инди сегменте. Правда не очень удобно, что события развиваются довольно быстро, например, прежде чем успеешь распаковать телефон и позвонить по нему)
Gostei do jogo pois o diferencial dele foi que não precisou apelar pra jumpscares para trazer uma sensação de medo pra quem está jogando, a música de fundo e a trilha que a história leva, já é o suficiente pra te deixar desconfortável, gostei demais...
It took me 1 hour and 16 minutes to complete. It was really good. The game was really scary. I will upload it to my youtube channel the playthrough. I really liked the story.
(It's a Hungarian channel, so I also speak Hungarian in the video)
In my eyes, definitely a well composed piece of art. I love the psychological story and the analog horror elements. A nice and well done combination. And last but not least: No cheap jump scares.
Recently played this one after finishing The Building 71 Incident. Scary Cube you have a knack for horror storytelling and it really got me in the feels with this one. 9/10.
Hello! We are looking for a contact email to offer to bring this game to Nintendo Switch!! Could you please provide us with an email address? Thanks!!!
I had never heard of this game before and had never seen any gameplay. It just popped up while I was browsing for something to play on itch.io, and I have to say, wow! I love the slow pace at the beginning and how it gradually becomes scarier. The sound design is phenomenal, adding to the tension without relying on cheap jump scares. Great job, developer! It took me two playthroughs to uncover all the secrets. The telephone one was the trickiest to find. https://www.youtube.com/@scarygamesat3am
THIS IS SOOO GOOD. probs the best horror game I've ever played. really loved how eerie it was, and I thoroughly enjoyed decorating the house! I neved knew I needed such an element in horrors!
Wow. The intro got me hooked immediately. I liked The Building 71 Incident already, but this... You absolutely know what you're doing and I'm looking forward to more of your games. This is one of the best horror games I've played, I only wish it explored something else than just guilt - that's kinda become the default in psychological horror.
You quickly became my new favorite developer thanks to your current line-up (this game and Building 71). Love the way you tell a story using psychological horror. Can't wait for your next game! :3
This game absolutely exceeded my expectations. The introductory cutscene was already great to set the tone of the game, but the gameplay, sound design, and storytelling itself just felt really strong. I haven't played an indie game like this in quite some time. Amazing experience!
It's creepy, it's super trippy, it knows what it's job is and it does it well. The sound design is effective and unsettling, the atmosphere of the house is oppressive, the backstory is good, the dialogue is written very well, the visuals are creepy as all hell. It will definitely leave you thinking after it's over, wondering if you really understood what happened or not (I think I do, but I'm not positive). Very good game overall, 10/10
Good! The music, trippy visuals and oppressive soundscape all felt very Lynchian. So much more polished and well put together than I was expecting. You can tell the game had an actual vision in mind as opposed to just cheap spooks.

Thanks for this wonderful game.
Also, I've made this meme:
lo probare y luego comento de nuevo :)
Absolutely loved it. Thank you for such a great experience.
This was insanely good developer, great job!
ABSOLUTELY PHENOMONAL!
I could never have guessed that this would have so much lore, so much emotional impact and mentally.
Wonderful game. I really enjoyed it.

Stupid wife won't let me finish unpacking and decorating my home. Leave me be woman!
Loved the unpacking elements. Really cool game!
Great game but I didn't get to finish decorating my home :(

fun game and cool but not scary at all to be honest
It's creepy, it's super trippy, it knows what it's job is and it does it well.

One of the best indie short horror games I've played in a while, felt straight outta Skinamarink. 10/10
Good! The music, trippy visuals and oppressive soundscape all felt very Lynchian. So much more polished and well put together than I was expecting. You can tell the game had an actual vision in mind as opposed to just cheap spooks.
I've gone through the game several times just to arrange things in different variations х)
Wife turned Spiderman
Such a haunting game! Really enjoyed playing! :D
This was an Adventure Indie Horror at its finest
