Having your own house at the age of 18 might sound like a dream come true—think independence and your own space, all before you're even old enough to drink in the US! But in the case of Your House, this dream might turn into a nightmare. This seemingly cozy home harbors a dark side that you'll uncover as you play.

In this text-based adventure, you step into the shoes of Debbie, a girl who faces a series of unfortunate events on her 18th birthday: expulsion from school, betrayal by her best friend, and being hit by a car. With nothing left to lose, when Debbie receives a mysterious key and a letter directing her to the titular house, she decides to delve into the enigma surrounding it.

As you navigate through dozens of escape room-style puzzles, you'll need to use your ingenuity to ensure Debbie's survival, all while a mysterious figure watches from the sidewalk. The game's spooky undercurrent adds an extra layer of thrill as you explore the various nooks and crannies of your new home. Even with the text-based narration, the visuals are engaging and make Your House well worth a look.
