This is from a while ago and I know I played it sometime back then,
but never wrote about it. I remember thinking it was not like things
I usually played but had enjoyed, but much more than that eludes me.
I confess to having forgotten about it until an internet rabbit hole brought
it to my attention recently. Which enticed me to play it again.

I am glad I did.

It’s June 7 1995, at just past 1 am. You (Katie Greenbriar) have arrived at
the family home after a year travelling overseas, but instead of a warm
welcome there is no one there. A note pinned to the door sparks a notion
that something is wrong.

Once inside the house, that feeling only grows.

Thanks flotsam (and Drac)! I played this game back in 2019 and I really liked the atmosphere of the game. Long after playing it, I could still feel it. It is in my mind to replay one day but I have it from Humble Bundle and am not sure if I can download it to a different computer or if I need to re-purchase the game, from Steam or GOG. I think it is actually still installed on my Win 7 computer though anyway. I did think the end of the game was going to be something quite different from what it was.

Oldbroad, you can download Humble Bundle games to multiple computers. smile

Thank you very much for the review, flotsam! Definitely sounds like it's worth a look. thumbsup

And thank you too, Drac. wave

Thanks for that info Marian. I thought you can but wasn't sure. I've never tried it but maybe it's time to.
