Wrapped Inside a House that Seems to Be Alive with Secrets
Set in the 90s, "Your House: A Hidden Truth" follows Debbie, an 18-year-old experiencing the worst birthday of her life. Expelled from school, betrayed by her best friend, and hit by a car on her way home, Debbie's night takes a mysterious turn when a strange envelope appears in her room at midnight, containing an old key, a cryptic postcard, and an address.
With nothing left to lose, Debbie steals a motorcycle and heads to the address, discovering a massive, eerie house filled with locked doors, hidden passages, and a mysterious narrative. The house itself is a puzzle, with Debbie uncovering strange objects and the intertwined lives of three individuals whose pasts are deeply connected to the house.
Your House: A Hidden Truth Is the Prequel to Unmemory
Fans of "Unmemory" will recognize the signature storytelling style in "Your House: A Hidden Truth," though the game stands alone and requires no prior knowledge of its predecessor. Drawing inspiration from real-life mysteries, such as an actual Manhattan apartment designed by architect Eric Clough, which was filled with hidden compartments and secret messages, the game explores themes of identity, ambition, and the cost of chasing dreams through its pop art and comic-style visuals.
If you enjoy text-driven games, "Your House: A Hidden Truth" is definitely worth checking out on the Google Play Store.
