About This Game

You find an old photograph of a place you don’t remember. When you ask your parents about it, their faces harden — they refuse to talk, shutting you down with silence. The address leads you to a long-abandoned apartment block, once filled with life, now left to rot. A place of memories, rumors, and fears. Determined to uncover the truth, you step inside.

What Was Home is a story-driven first-person psychological horror game rooted in urban exploration. Wander through decayed halls and forgotten rooms, uncover fragments of the past, and piece together the hidden stories of those who once lived here — including the secrets your parents tried to keep from you.

Features:

• Urban Exploration – Navigate an abandoned apartment block, its basement, and surroundings, and step inside homes long forgotten.

• Story-Driven Horror – Discover a deeply personal narrative about family and secrets, while uncovering the unsettling stories of other residents who once lived there.

• Forgotten Stories – Piece together history through scattered notes and diary entries.

• Atmospheric Horror – Experience what it’s like to explore an abandoned building in the dark, where every sound and shadow makes you second guess yourself.
