This is an intriguing, if occasionally screamingly frustrating, bit of puzzling fun.

As the Steam page says, Homebody is a game where you catch up with old friends and try not to get murdered.
Such a simple description, yet it belies a more complicated endeavour.

Emily is agoraphobic, but has managed to force herself to gather with college friends at a remote rental house to
watch the Perseid meteor shower. She hasn't seen them for nearly a year, so a degree of awkwardness is apparent.
That the front door seemingly can't be opened is a whole other thing.

She chats and explores and then the power goes out. And then she gets killed. And then things start again.

Thanks flotsam and Drac! I can't say it sounds appealing to me, dying and repeating over and over.
