Home is a neat little choose your own mystery

07 Jul 2025

I played Home: A Unique Horror Adventure after being somehow reminded of it recently.

A neat little horror mystery that unfolds kind of how you decide it does. You can uncover more or less of the story depending on how thoroughly you explore areas. Ultimately the game asks you to interpret what you’ve found through some yes/no questions which decide how the story actually unfolded.

I played it through a few times, mostly for trophies’ sake, and in doing so found myself interpreting events a little differently the second time with knowledge of how things look later in the game. Stuff like that is a win with me.

Ultimately I wish there was some certainty to be found in the story but I appreciate the experiment with mystery storytelling methods.

Home: A Unique Horror Adventure is available on most platforms, and I played it on PS Vita. Vita Means Life.
