About The New Apartment

A short game about a person living in a suspiciously cheap apartment complex.

AN INTRODUCTION

Disoriented and groggy, you rise from your comfy sofa. You go about your night as usual: washing the dishes, brushing your teeth, closing the curtains... And yet there's something in this apartment that strikes you as unfamiliar.Maybe it's a certain quality in the air, or the winding layout of the residence, or perhaps just paranoia; regardless, it's unsettling, to say the least. You'd swear you could hear a faint footstep or whispering every so often, despite being completely alone.But right now, it's not what's important—you have work starting early in the morning. Plus, you're pretty secluded living in rural Vermont, so there's nothing to be afraid of, right?

✦ AI summary

The New Apartment has an atmospheric apartment setting with solid graphics and sound design that creates an eerie mood, but players are divided on whether the experience justifies its brevity. Common complaints center on minimal interactivity with the environment, vague object descriptions, a distinct lack of story development, and misleading genre labeling as a puzzle or horror game when neither element is substantially present.

I love my spooky games, especially creepy little walking simulation games so I went in expecting to love The New Apartment despite the short length of 15-20 minutes gameplay mentioned on the store page. Admittedly, the design of the apartment itself is really nice and I liked the sound effects but there's a distinct lack of story here and interacting with the environment is underwhelming , boring even. Clicking on the various documents and folders scattered around the apartment yields nothing more than a flat 'Paperwork' or 'Some Paperwork '. Clicking on the red frying pan on the hob top gives a basic 'My Red Frying Pan' . The game is listed as a Puzzle game which is not really fitting when the game contains one instance where the player needs to figure out a 3 digit lock combination and the 'solution' is so easy that a preschool child would solve it. Another time is featuring a Painting that the entity reveals to the player. Just as I start remembering which room I've seen the painting in... up pops the narrator "I've seen this painting before...." Surely it's not going to... "It was in the bathroom!" . I mean I could have found that myself if given even a minute but no, the pla…

I liked the atmosphere of this game, but even for $1 its not worth it because I beat the game in 16 minutes. I would like to see other projects by this dev that are longer and build up more of a story.

It was short and nice, not much horror though.
Recommended Sep 29, 2025
Now this is a psychological horror game. The graphics are smooth as hell too. Worth the price. Very short but had me horrified the whole time.
