New Face On The Block

New Face On The Block is a first-person horror walking simulator about a young woman who moves to a big city and finds a surprisingly cheap apartment in a housing estate. The apartment is far from her university and workplace, but has good transport connections. As she explores her new home and neighborhood, she uncovers the apartment’s history through objects left behind and conversations with local residents, some of whom she would rather avoid.

The apartment’s past

You soon realize that you are not always alone in the apartment: someone knows how to get inside, perhaps someone who lived there before you. You explore different locations, find hidden items and interact with them to piece together a story from some time ago. Simple tasks woven into the story help you progress.

Building tension

The game uses atmosphere and immersive audio to create suspense and anticipation, with occasional jump scares. Its focus is psychological horror rather than frequent sudden scares. A playthrough takes approximately 1 hour.
