Home Security is a chilling survival horror experience developed and published by Toshihiko Kikuchi. Players are confined to a room due to being a recluse, but their life takes a terrifying turn when their older brother, who has been caring for them, falls ill. With parents away on a business trip, the player must venture out of their room to tend to their sibling.
Upon leaving, a disturbing discovery is made: the windows are barricaded. This was done by the older brother to ward off an unknown threat. Now, trapped in a dimly lit house, the player must protect their brother from the surprise attacks of a menacing neighbor. Success hinges on carefully listening to the sounds within the house to detect any incidents. If a window is breached, immediate repairs are crucial to prevent further intrusion and maintain the fragile safety of the home.
