It's a short indie horror game where we step into the shoes of Alex, a student who, in search of more comfort, rents an apartment in the city that, at first glance, seems pretty decent — but upon arrival, he realizes something is not right.

Discounts
Every price cut of more than 20% we have observed, in each market that quoted one, with this game's chart position on either side of it. These are episodes, not a model: a sale is one event, and one event cannot tell you what the next one will do.

For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 25 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 10 places towards #1, and the 2,413 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.

1/10 Don't recommend this game. Try Welcome to Kowloon instead. I don't want people to think all indie horror games are like this. This is the worst kind of horror walking simulator games. The constant back tracking is tedious and annoying. No running feature makes it drag out for too long. The jump scares are cheap. There are no objectives, just a couple spoken prompts and lots of random clicking on doors and items until something happens to progress the game. You play a generic character, even our missing poster at the end is only a silhouette. No real back story, they just throw you right in to the chaos. It's almost like a haunted house where you are walking though to maze trying to reach the end while people scream at you and jump out to scare you randomly. There is no ambient noise, no build of tension. [spoiler] Just stupid bloody mannequins. [/spoiler] I have also played an almost exact replica of this game, but this one is shorter and the overall progress of the plot is horrible and choppy. The only reason I knew how to finish the game is because I played one so similar before. [spoiler] The moment I walked into the apartment and up the stair case I thought I had already played this one. I automatically knew it was going to be cannibals luring me with a cheap apartment to torture and kill me. [/spoiler] Only thing I like is the quality of the graphics. Even though my computer ran pretty hot the apartment looks nice and is filled with lots of details, like the books, cans, food boxes, and other misc items. The darkness of the game was perfect, never felt it was too dark to find my way around, and the sensitivity adjuster was much appreciated. And last for achievement hunters, all achievements are earned as you play.

6/10 benzerleri çokça yapılan tek bir evde geçen korku oyunu. bolca jumpscareleri var. atmosfer sağlam. koşma yok, çok yavaş yürüyorsunuz. hikayesi fena değil ancak sonu sizi tatmin etmeyebilir.
Fun little short game. Worth a play especially if on sale.
так себе, яички даже не дрогнули
This is a must play in my opinion if you love horror games. All the eerie elements you crave all wrapped up into a nice package of horror. You won't be disappointed. And if you would like to see my playthrough, here you go: https://youtu.be/VJWdw4rlVJE
6/10,氛围还可以,场景模型是公共素材,打折7.5元,还是值得购买的。
4/10 Очень положительные - больше по правде смешанные))) Хоррора тут нет вообще, приключение тоже нет, так вечер на час убить пойдет - цена максимум 60.... Лайк за старания и только...
Muy recomendable.
日本語訳はありませんが、機械翻訳でなんとかストーリーは把握。 主人公は引っ越し予定の学生で、引っ越し前に嫌な夢を見るもあまり気にせず(?)次の日意気揚々と引っ越し先へ向かいますがそこには不気味で恐ろしいものが待ち受けていた…みたいな感じです。 暗すぎて進行がわかりずらいことを除けば、ショートホラーとしてはよくできでると思います。 雰囲気も怖いし、ちょっとだけチェイスもあり、謎解きもめっちゃ簡単で私としては高評価。 凄く短いのでサクッとプレイしたい方にはおすすめ。
10/10 A Nice Horror GAME
