  • Analog horror
  • Puzzles
  • Short

You inherit a house and find VHS tapes of a kids' cartoon in the attic, whose star, Amanda, talks to you through the screen. You answer her questions and solve puzzles using clues from the tapes, and your answers change the ending.

Why play it now

When you want short, unsettling horror: a first playthrough takes under an hour, and there are five endings.

Who it's for

For players who enjoy analog horror and observation puzzles more than sudden jump scares.

When not to pick it

If puzzles without hints frustrate you: several endings are hard to find without a guide.

What it offers

  • Story: 70 out of 100
  • Thinking: 60 out of 100
  • Exploring: 30 out of 100
