A scary/creepy point-and-click adventure game. Very plot-driven. You can almost call it an interactive movie.

Ivy lives with her family in a big house in the forest. Things have been rather strange lately. Help Ivy find out what is wrong, and uncover the awful secret.

SPOILER ahead:
Walkthrough:
After waking up, look around the house. [Press the cardboard boxes on the first screen, then the umbrella, and the small table next to the door for the first second and third Creator's Notes. A sound will tell you when you've got them]. Exit.

When you get to the second house, pick up the FLASHLIGHT from the ironing board. Enter the kitchen, talk to Ruth and you will get the JUG.
[You will find some Creator's Notes: *Press the bird cage in the kitchen *Press the black-covered mirror in the room next to the kitchen *Press the fire extinguisher next to the stairs *Upstairs, press the stuff you find next to the closet door. *Press the glass of coke on the table in the TV- room *Press the windows in the TV-room]
Now you can exit the house.

Go to the river [press the trailer when you first see it] and use the JUG on the water. Watch, then return to the house.

Talk to Eve for the KEY TO EVE'S ROOM. Go there, [turn around and press the small note stuck on her door] then press the mirror. Watch

When back in your own house, press the boxes to get BATTERIES [press the blanket in your bed] , then exit.

Go to the kitchen, take the KEY TO THE FOOD CELLAR from the kitchen drawers.

Go to the backyard, pick up the CD- ROM [and press the bench], then enter the food cellar.

[Press the orange object in the background], pick up the MAGNET, pick up LETTER 1. Read it, then watch.

Return to the kitchen, talk to Ben to get the TRAILER KEY.

Enter the trailer, [press the round sticker on the wall], pick up the KNITTING NEEDLES from the drawers, pick up LETTER 2. Read.

Return to the house, go upstairs and use the KNITTING NEEDLES on the door to the computer room. Inside, [turn around and press the lowest painting on the wall], use the CD-ROM on the computer. Read.

Go to Eve's room. Talk to her to get LETTER 3. Read, then watch.

The last thing you do... when you're in your house again, find the shiny thing between the floorboards (when standing next to the bed and overlooking the room). Use the MAGNET, and then just watch and enjoy! Thanks for playing!

probably one of the best atmospheres in horror flash games. would have loved to see what else you bring to the table i love how unique this game is!!

I first played this game with my sister around 10 years ago or something. There was something about it that made me feel anxious and scared but intrigued at the same time. It was one of the few games that I wanted to play over and over again. Now that i played it again after such a long time, i appreciate it even more. It has such a unique style and atmosphere.
Thank you so much for this game. I really hope you are doing well in life.

This game is a nostalgy for me. Took me days to finally find it again.
It's so personal and unique. Really well done.
Now reading through your game notes, I'm actually kind of curious whether your boyfriend at that time liked it.
I really hope you keep on with your creativity in life :)

A really fun point-and-click with a great atmosphere that holds up well years later later. It's always a pleasure to come back to whenever the creepy indie game mood comes up.

I really enjoyed it. It was really creepy and unsettling to me. The choice of music also helped in giving me the chills. The story is good too, the idea of 'not knowing anything that's happening' is really scary.
I feel a main problem I had was trying to find objects, but perhaps that's just me (I had to use the tab trick most of the time).
All in all, I enjoyed it. I hope your aspirations of becoming a game designer are realized.

Ms-Bowser responds:

Thank you for the kind review!
Well, the graphics are pretty muddy and it's very unclear what you can interact with and not, so I agree 100%.

Yes, in fact I'm working my first game design job! <3
