The renowned Spanish game studio Patrones & Escondites has released their latest mind-bending mystery, "It's Your House: A Hidden Truth." This narrative puzzle thriller invites players to uncover the secrets hidden within a house as a teenage protagonist. Available now on Android, PC via Steam, and iOS, the game is free to play and blends interactive storytelling with escape-room-style puzzles, offering an experience akin to a playable book or a readable game.
Set in the 90s, "It's Your House: A Hidden Truth" follows the harrowing journey of Debbie, an 18-year-old facing the worst birthday of her life. After being expelled from school and betrayed by her best friend, her night takes a dire turn when she's hit by a car. Just when she believes things couldn't get worse, a mysterious envelope arrives 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 towards the unknown. She discovers a massive, eerie house filled with locked doors and hidden passages, each holding a piece of a mysterious story. The house itself becomes a puzzle that Debbie must solve, encountering strange objects and unraveling the intertwined lives of three people deeply connected to this place.
Fans of Patrones & Escondites' previous work, "Unmemory," will recognize the studio's distinctive storytelling style in "It's Your House: A Hidden Truth." Although it serves as a prequel to "Unmemory," the game stands independently, requiring no prior knowledge of the earlier title.
Drawing inspiration from real-life mysteries, such as an enigmatic Manhattan apartment designed by architect Eric Clough, the game delves into themes of identity, ambition, and the consequences of pursuing one's dreams. With its pop art and comics-style visuals, "It's Your House: A Hidden Truth" offers a deep, engaging narrative perfect for fans of text-driven games. Check it out on the Google Play Store for an immersive experience.
