Stay Out of the House

Released: 6/16/2023

Stay Out of the House is stealth based, VHS style slasher horror. Part survival horror, part immersive stealth simulator: Hide in the vents, pick locks, set traps and avoid detection. You will be hunted by an intelligent and deadly AI, relying on your wits and whatever tools you find to make it out alive. With low poly visuals authentic to the PS1 era, this is the game your 90's self always wanted! Warning: This game is not Murder House 2. Murder House was inspired by third person survival horror such as Silent Hill and Clock Tower. Stay Out Of the House is inspired by stealth immersive sims such as Alien Isolation. If you're looking for more Murder House, this is not the same type of game. I don't want you to waste money;_; The smack of a hammer... your head lands hard on the dirty linoleum floor... a maniac drags you up the stairs and cages you like an animal! You have three days until the reckoning... Welcome to the home of THE BUTCHER. Welcome to YOUR new home. Why are you here? Why has this mad man chosen you, and what are his plans for you? How will you escape? Can you even escape? All of these questions have answers, but can you seek them out? Do you want to? If only you’d heeded their warning to STAY OUT OF THE HOUSE. Avoid THE BUTCHER'S cruel hammer or wind up right back in your CAGE! And you only have so much time left to escape... Stay quiet and stay out of sight. He can hear you, and he IS listening. Avoid his traps as you explore; he’s not about to let his newest houseguest leave so soon. There are plenty of unique tools and items around them house to aid in your escape. You’ll need your wits to find the best path out. Temper his SICK LUST FOR BLOOD with your.38 caliber revolver (if you can find it!) Search for clues as you explore if you truly want answers. Perhaps you’ll find more than you bargained for…
