Haunted House by rockersuke

Horror

Haunted House is a remake of a 1979 game made by Device Oriented Games for the TRS-80 computer. Written for the 2011 Indigo speed-comp, it features an original plot over the classic game set-up. Its final, way more tested and polished, version is now publicly released for the 2016 Year of Adventure jam.

The game has got a booklet, sort of a "feelie", with interesting details concerning its creation process and other trivia, which you can read at:

Aside from what I'm pretty certain is a Doctor Who parody of the characters, the story is actually pretty decent. Not too sure if I should be thinking of it like a normal, creepy DW episode or a thing by itself though, so I'm not too sure if I should conclude that it's actually haunted, or there's some space-time shenanigan happening right there with a spectral of energy or alien or whatever.

The layout was kinda confusing and I almost got lost, but otherwise, really not that bad. Wish we could know more about Indigo and maybe what was going on, however.
