"Return" is an text-based horror game about coming home. I recommend you play it on a laptop/desktop with your audio on. Mobile should (in theory) work but it'll look worse and the sounds might not play. 

(also please only play on wifi i think some of the uncompressed audio might eat up all of your data)

content warnings: startling noises, some gore here and there, strained family dynamics.

I played the Twine Fishing Simulator and knew I had to play more work by this creator. This game is haunting and visceral in all of the ways I wanted it to be. Had to stop playing it and come back to it at one point because I was home alone and was genuinely frightened. Beautifully written and makes good use of the interactive fiction format. I really loved this.
