This is a great puzzle game. Reminds me of the puzzles in the old Resident Evil games. The drafting mechanics + limited steps through the house each day mean you'll have to build the house dozens, or even hundreds, of times to progress the puzzle and the narrative.
Be warned - It's a really challenging, maddening puzzle to solve on your own, and searching the Internet for even a tiny piece of the solution can quickly ruin the game. So, know what you're getting into.
It's also an included game on PlayStation Plus. So if you already have that, this would obviously not be slick.

I hated this game. The RNG is infuriating. Everything has to randomly fall into place. You can do a small amount of planning, but this is a rogue-like. Your days reset. There are a limited amount of permanent things you do to help you get further. It's almost entirely reliant on you randomly getting what you need. I got screwed over by the randomness more times than I can remember. I played this through PS+ Extra. I'm glad I didn't buy it. I got to the end once (which isn't even fully beating it), and that was enough for me. I will never play it again.

You should specify that it's on Extra/Premium. It wasn't a regular PS+ Essential game.

x2. Plus solving some of the puzzles require way more than a game without in game notes should require. It does warn you to get your own notebook tbf but looking at the solutions for some is just hilarious. No one is going to solve those that way imo. The clocktower is peak puzzle. Requires rng/timing but solvable with a few other room's clues.

Just goes to show how different tastes can be. This is my game of the year so far.
