About this game

It tells the story of Carlos' journey after he receives a distress call from his father, pleading for him to return to his old home and rescue his dad.
As he continues exploring the house, Carlos encounters many terrifying yet 'cute' monsters. As he solves the puzzles before him, he draws ever closer to the truth...
Freud once said: "Love and work, work and love...that's all there is."
But what of the pain, the struggles that arise
when we're forced to choose between our ambitions and love?
In dealing with such conundrums, we’ve all likely hurt those we hold dearest to us.
For it's often in the darkness that we feel most safe.
With Dad's Monster House, I wish to provide those kinds of heartrending memories a chance at redemption.
I dedicate it to scientists, to my childhood dreams;
to those I love, and to faded memories.
I hope that within you'll find the greatest of answers, be they for your love, for science, or dreams.

[Gameplay]
A sudden call in the deep of night has you return to a house you haven't visited for many a year. You must unravel one puzzle after another: to from within scenes intertwined with memories find clues and get to the bottom of your father's secret.
The choice of whether to redeem or ultimately end this sad story lies in your hands.

[Features]
Instead of going for bright and vivid colors, I have opted for a black-and-white art style. The fragmented narration, plentiful puzzles, and delicate sound designs create an immersive experience where you as the player get to truly feel the ups and downs of the protagonist's emotions. Continue to unravel the story as you collect more items...
Dad's Monster House is a hand-drawn puzzle game featuring horror and fantasy.

Fun game so far! Would love an option for hints, sometimes I have to take a few days off to then approach with fresh eyes (this wasn't a bad thing tbh, though. Also I'm not sure if the drawing pad is part of a puzzle or if mine is just glitched out. It is red & white with some blocks, the X in the corner is visible but it's very weird Love the game, excited to try to play through a second/third time for the different endings & seeing how fast I can get though it

Different and intriguing story, yet, very much in the same vein as Isoland as far as gameplay. Some of the puzzles were pretty cryptic and I was left wondering what to do next on occasion, but still found the game enjoyable I wish there had been a more extensive cutscene at the end. Collecting the photo fragments after the main game was a nice epilogue.

Maybe it's my phone, but I couldn't get the character to interact with anything and that's really annoying. It made it basically unplayable. The controls (or lack thereof) suck.
