Our take on Wooden House
Rather than presenting a peaceful cottage as a safe retreat, the game turns that familiar setting into the source of its threat. Its structure replaces guided discovery with exploration and deduction, while enemy pursuit keeps the domestic environment under pressure.
What is Wooden House?
Wooden House is an action-adventure game set in a small cottage outside the city.
After strange voices emerge from beneath the house, the protagonist discovers a mysterious book that releases an ancient evil. The game centers on exploring the house, investigating the curse, and thinking through its mysteries without in-game tips. Ambient sounds create tension as enemies track the protagonist’s movements. The setting combines a quiet rural home, a fireplace, books, a basement, and supernatural threats. Players can either try to remove the curse or face its consequences while moving through the cottage and confronting what has been released.
