Critic Reviews for Your House
Your House is a title perfect for escape room enthusiasts and puzzle lovers, featuring unique gameplay mechanics and packed with mystery.
Your House is a good facsimile of an escape room, but the flaws only become more apparent in the digital realm.
Your House offers up a combination of accessible and tricky puzzles couched in an interesting story and a tactile, enjoyable series of escape room chapters.
YOUR HOUSE is a brilliantly creative text-based narrative puzzle game that uses every tool at its disposal to remain as interactive as possible while still delivering a great narrative in the form of a digitized novel.
Your House succeeds in delivering a rich and immersive narrative experience, supported by challenging puzzles and a striking visual style. Despite some minor frustrations with navigation and puzzle difficulty, the game’s engaging writing and constant sense of suspense made it hard to put down. It’s not perfect, but the journey through Debbie’s story - and the mysterious house - makes for a memorable and rewarding experience.
Your House presents a memorable narrative in a unique way, with the game feeling like reading a good book. Coupled with a wide variety of puzzles and a great protagonist, Your House is a game worth your time.
Your House is a glorious mashup of video game and book, taking interesting elements from both storytelling methods to create an engaging game.
YOUR HOUSE offers a graphically quite simple concept, where you almost get the idea that you are playing an old Flash game, where you also have clicking points that take you to the next frame. The illustrations are very nicely done, but all this is slightly limited by the fact that the game only fills a frame of your screen, and not the entire screen. YOUR HOUSE also requires a lot of perseverance. You can ask for hints of course, but even with that you sometimes really have to figure out what the solution is. However, if you really like reading, digging deep and solving puzzles, then this is undoubtedly a great adventure for you. With about five hours of gameplay, including research and a lot of trying and thinking, you will be busy with this narrative game for quite a while.
