Description

HOME is a bone-chilling paranormal investigation game that fits in a mint tin! The house stands silent, but you are not alone. As a paranormal investigator, you've come to uncover the truth. Identify the ghost, withstand the terror, and cleanse the house of its haunting. Keep your wits sharp, your flashlight steady, and pray you make it out alive. In HOME, you assume the role of a paranormal investigator, tasked with cleansing a haunted house of its ghostly inhabitant. Armed with your ghost hunting equipment and a flashlight, you make your way through the dark house, room by room, discovering items, clues, and evidence in order to identify, locate, and expel the ghost. You must be cautious as your flashlight batteries drain quickly, paranormal events test your sanity, and deadly hunts force you to run and hide as the ghost chases you throughout the house. Once you have gathered enough evidence, found the unique mementos tied to the ghost's former living self, and discovered the room that the ghost is haunting, you must perform a cleansing ritual to rid the house of the apparition once and for all! —description from the designer
