Overview
House of Weirdos plunges players into a darkly satirical take on the indie horror genre. You awaken with amnesia in a dilapidated, abandoned house, the sole inhabitant of a place that seems to have been deliberately left with clues for your escape. Armed with little more than a faulty flashlight and a dwindling battery, you must navigate the unsettling environment, piecing together your past and finding a way out.
The game promises an immersive plot, though it leans into the absurdity of its premise rather than complex twists. The narrative unfolds through scattered notes and the player's own rediscovery of their identity.
This is a world where even your own footsteps can be a source of fear, and the act of throwing or breaking objects is presented as a strangely satisfying, albeit simple, mechanic.
