Tropes like haunted houses and possessed dolls are a dime a dozen in horror. But darn it, they’re by and large a lot of fun. Developers Vecube Studio and Spirit Games Studio certainly think so, as they’ve teamed with publisher Gaming Factory to bring us both in Puppet House. Slated for release later this year on Steam, this psychological horror title sees you roaming the mansion of a deceased ventriloquist (or is he?) in search of answers.
In Puppet House, you will take on the role of Rick Evans, a photographer whose interest in haunted places has led him to Field Town, and the home of Peter Hill, an famed ventriloquist who has long since departed this life. Everyone in the town talked about the place, many of them even tried to get inside. Articles have been written about disappearances and screams coming from the walls of the abandoned house, and Rick aims to clear the air about these stories.
From the initial sounds of things, Puppet House will rely on the atmosphere of the old mansion as you wander about the place. However, you soon realize that you’re not the only one in the mansion. As you make your way through the place, solving the various puzzles and avoiding whatever it is that you sense, you’ll happen upon notes and articles that bring you closer to the truth about Peter Hill and his mansion. However, as you might expect, some secrets are best left hidden.
