Limited professional critic coverage
Edge of your seat STEALTH HORROR as you try to escape the house of a cannibal SERIAL KILLER.... Stay Out of the House is stealth based, VHS style slasher horror. With low poly visuals authentic to the PS1 era, this is the game your 90's self always wanted!
Runs well on modern hardware.

this is the best horror game of all time, the only problem with it are the bleak endings
"Stay Out of the House" has a save system. You can can reload a save at any time. "Stay Out of the House" has a lives system. When you lose a life more traps will appear. Loading a save negates the life lost. You never truely have to enter the "House".\ The game is alright. 3/5
Puppet combo never disappoints, but this has to be one of their best games. The sound design induces a visceral panic just as well as in all their games, but to me personally, it hits especially hard in this one. The atmosphere is creepy, the gameplay is challenging (Granny on steroids, with a genuinely smart ai), and the entire product is really well polished and contains a lot of content for an indie game. If I were to give any piece of criticism, it would be that the tonal clash between the two parts of the game (the house and the [spoiler]lab[/spoiler]) doesn't work in the game's favour.
