The Empty House – An Interactive Experience About Dementia

What Remains When Memories Fade?

The Empty House is a deeply emotional and surreal interactive narrative experience that takes you inside the unraveling mind of a woman suffering from advanced dementia. As reality crumbles around her, time loops, memories distort, and once-familiar places become eerie and unrecognizable.

This is not a traditional puzzle or action game. Instead, it is an experiment in perception, a descent into forgetting, and an exploration of what it means to lose oneself. Through cinematic storytelling and full-motion video (FMV), you will experience the world through her fractured mind—where choices, no matter how small, can reshape her fading reality.

A portion of the proceeds from this interactive film will be donated to organizations dedicated to dementia and Alzheimer’s research, helping to support patients, families, and the search for a cure.

🌓 Two Diverging Paths: Light and Shadows

Your journey begins with the Light Path, a more reflective and emotional exploration of memory loss, filled with moments of nostalgia and heartbreak.

In "Shadows of The Empty House", reality becomes a nightmare. This alternate version of the story is deeply unsettling, full of psychological horror and existential dread. Shadows stretch unnaturally, familiar faces become faceless specters, and time itself bends in ways you can’t understand.

The choices you make determine whether you will find solace in the memories that remain—or become lost in the terrifying void of forgetfulness.

🎥 A Unique Interactive FMV Experience

💔 A Game With a Purpose – Supporting Dementia Research

The Empty House is more than just an interactive story—it’s a way to make a difference. A portion of the proceeds from this project will be donated to organizations dedicated to dementia and Alzheimer’s research, funding both patient support and the search for a cure.

By playing, you are not just exploring a fading mind—you are helping those who live this reality every day.

🔄 Many Paths, Many Endings

There is no single way to experience The Empty House. Each choice alters the journey in ways both subtle and profound. Some decisions will bring clarity. Others will deepen the confusion.

Will you fight to hold on to reality? Or will you surrender to the abyss of forgetting?

Every playthrough is a new experience. Every ending is a reflection of your choices.

The Empty House uses AI-generated video effects in select nightmare sequences, primarily in the Shadows of the Empty House version. These AI-enhanced visuals help create surreal and unsettling distortions, reinforcing the psychological horror experience.
