About The House Before
The House Before is an interactive horror story in which you wake up as a House, trapped inside your own body. You explore endless rooms filled with grotesque creatures, unable to see outside yourself or feel the world beyond your flesh. Your anatomy is covered in intricate wounds etched before you were born, and shapeless haunts live inside you, despising you for crimes committed aeons ago.
Explore the House
The game combines visual novel and adventure elements with simple mini-games. You explore your guts, heal old wounds, try to be a good House, suffer and procreate. The story is mostly linear and takes around two hours to complete.
