Games Like Closer To Home

Players beware, this is a very difficult and self-obscuring game. There is little to no hand-holding or guidance. The majority of the gameplay is dialogue, getting lost, and wandering. It may seem like an incoherent passage in a dark tunnel, but there is an internal logic to all of the mechanisms of the game. I have made a basic guide in the community forum.

About the game Closer To Home is a primarily dialogue-focused surreal horror exploration game. As you navigate the world and talk to its inhabitants you will come into possession of items that allow progression through the game. Ability granting items are explained in inventory descriptions. The world occasionally changes, so be observant of audio and visual changes. Check back in on the world's inhabitants from time to time, as they remember you. Please read the content warnings if you are one to heed them. I made this game entirely on my own, without any prior experience, so do not be surprised if you find a bug here or there.
