"Your House: Learn First-Time Buying Risks, iOS Out Now, Android Pre-Register"

Owning your own house at the tender age of 18 might seem like a dream come true—think independence and having your own space, all before you're legally allowed to drink in the US! However, in the world of Your House, this dream might quickly turn into a nightmare. This seemingly cozy home harbors a dark and mysterious side that you'll soon discover.

In this text-based adventure, you step into the shoes of Debbie, a young woman who, on her 18th birthday, faces expulsion from school, betrayal by her best friend, and a car accident. With nothing left to lose, when Debbie receives a mysterious key and a letter directing her to the house in question, she decides to delve into the enigma surrounding it.

As you navigate through the game, you'll encounter numerous escape room-style puzzles. With a shadowy figure observing from the sidewalk, you'll need to harness all your wits to ensure Debbie's survival. The game blends thrilling narrative elements with engaging puzzles, making for a gripping experience.

The rental market can be murder—I might be exaggerating the sinister vibes of Your House a bit, but there's definitely an eerie undercurrent as you explore the hidden corners of your new abode. Despite its text-based format, the game is visually rich and well worth exploring.

Be ready for some intense tapping, though. As noted in Catherine's review, the game's controls might feel a bit cumbersome at times. However, if you're willing to take a methodical approach and scrutinize each screen, the slow-burn pacing can be quite rewarding.
