Play It! Even If You Need A Walkthrough!

I'll start off by saying that puzzles aren't my strong point... and this almost put me off buying this game. Almost. But I'm a fan of classic survival horror and I'm not ashamed to say that I regularly checked a walkthrough when dealing with the game's many difficult and convoluted puzzles... but I don't regret playing it. it is a work of ART! This "run and hide" game is an innovative masterpiece of suspenseful survival horror game design which every horror fan should play at least once. It innovates in all sorts of subtle ways, such as not pausing the game when you are looking at puzzles, including a "real-time" mechanic, doing something... different... with the hiding places you can find etc... The game's psychological horror elements are stellar too! Don't ignore the in-game content warning about "Anxiety, OCD and depression" because the game WILL put you inside Emily's mind in all sorts of subtle and clever ways. For example, the theme of "Anxiety" is represented by these terrifying "public safety" leaflets you'll find, which present uncommon dangers as immediate and omnipresent threats to you. As well as solid survival horror gameplay, "Homebody" also includes a well-written (if slightly earnest at times) story which will make you care about the other characters who repeatedly fall to the slasher's blade, as well as feeling more and more existential dread as you begin to work out what is happening. The game's story is a "Love it or hate it" type of thing though, but I absolutely loved it! Despite all of the puzzles. On a practical note: You can play with either "point and click" mouse controls or direct keyboard controls (with optional 1990s-style "Tank controls" :) ). The system requirements are also massively over-stated too. The game lets you play at 640x400 if you want to and, whilst this makes some background text slightly blurry, it ran VERY well on Intel HD 2500 integrated graphics at this resolution :)

Worth a try

I am not usually writing reviews but I really enjoy that game, it mostly focuses on puzzles and dialogues/story elements. Gameplaywise it controls like an old survival/horror type of game (Resident evil). If you're afraid of the puzzles you can have help in game to know what to do next. But yes I would recommend this one it's an interesting piece of art. I even bought a second copy on nintendo switch. Thanks for reading and have a nice day !

Excellent Horror Puzzle

Homebody is a puzzle horror game in the modern setting with a time loop - each time the protagonist dies, the evening restarts from entering the house, which the group of friends rented for their trip. It is also a remarkably accurate representation of social anxiety. The house is a closed system with a specific schedule and everything needed already being there. The puzzles are logical and reasonably straight-forward and there is an optional hint system. The dialogues are well-written with several options and can provide hints for the puzzles as well along with more background story. The relationship progress persists between the loops and most of the puzzles are not random (I think, there is only one exception). The graphics are expressive and easy to read and use the PS1-style aesthetics. The music and sound design are fitting and build the atmosphere and suspense. The game is VA-free, allowing a smaller size and requiring less processing power. The controls are comfortable and rebindable, offering both keyboard and mouse controls. The game uses auto-saving into a single slot, with 3 slots total, meaning that one has to utilise their file management system should they want to have hard manual saves. Considering that the cut-scenes are not repeatable, while the difficulty increases as the game progresses, the lack of manual saving is unpleasant. Additionally, upon continuing the game, the player always starts from a new loop, with the position in the previous loop lost. While the loops are short and the memories are saved, it is still undesirable. I am also unsure whether interpersonal interactions should be considered universally better than seclusion. Each person is different and what works for the extroverted neurotypicals can be extremely uncomfortable for a neurodivergent person (see the gamers during the 2020 lockdown meme). The social systems were built by and for extroverts and must change to accommodate everyone, not only them.
