A Call From Under the House

Paranormal adventure where a lazy detective explores a haunted house, solves light puzzles, and collects runes in a short, straightforward point and click experience. You step into the shoes of a detective who has little interest in actually doing his job. He would rather smoke constantly and slack off. Fed up with his behavior, his boss gives him one final assignment and warns that failure will mean termination. The case involves paranormal activity in a haunted house, so there is no choice but to investigate. The game supports a controller, but since searching scenes for clues plays much like a point and click adventure, it does not translate comfortably to a gamepad. A keyboard and mouse setup feels far more natural. You have basic movement, a sprint button, a separate dance button that doesn’t really serve any purpose, and access to your inventory. All other interactions are handled with the left mouse button, including examining objects and using items from your inventory. You need to pay close attention while scanning rooms because there is no button to highlight key hotspots. The only indication is your cursor changing into a hand icon, and hotspot names do not appear on …

Short and sweet game with creative puzzles and some fun moments with real attention to detail! If you're looking for a bite-sized point and click adventure, you'll be happy with this one.

Great little puzzle game. I did not find 3 solutions for the hidden ones. This makes this game great!

An absolutely wonderful game. The art is super charming, the spooky atmosphere is awesome, and the puzzles are difficult but satisfying. The game is short and sweet (probably a good thing, if it was any longer, the Detective might die of lung cancer).

Really fun puzzle game. Setting and mood is well done. Quick game, but for the price, totally worth it. Looking forward to their next one!
