A downloadable game for Windows

About

April returns to her childhood home one last time before it's sold to cover the cost of her mother's care.  Stranded by a sudden snowstorm, she quickly learns that not is all right with the house.


Cold House is a pixel horror game featuring three endings.  Estimated gameplay time is 50 min - 1 hour 30 min.


This game was made in part as a love letter to the RPG-maker era of pixel horror games.  This era produced games like Yume Nikki, Ib, and The Witch's House.  Horror fans who enjoy gradually building psychological tension may like this game.


See a preview of the gameplay in this video.


Made with GameMaker, Cold House is the second completed project from the creator of Pink.

At the surface, a fun little horror game with a cute dog. Digging deeper, a story about evaluating your past themed around the reliability of a person's memory. Overall, recommended. 

Thank you!  I'm glad you liked it.
