This is fantastic to see! 'Gone Home' is currently free on itch for the weekend as the developer is spreading a bit of hope and love.

For people that need something about hope and love right now: We've made @GoneHomeGame free this weekend on @itchio. https://t.co/F7RCOZAj5Y — Steve Gaynor (@fullbright) November 12, 2016

I completed Gone Home the moment it originally came to Linux. I just couldn't put it down, as something about the game utterly hooked me in. It's full of mystery (and not a horror!) and really kept me wanting more.



It's quite short at around two hours long, so it's an easy game to get through. It's also not really about solving puzzles or anything like that, it's about taking it all in.



I highly suggesting going and giving it a try.



About the game

You arrive home after a year abroad. You expect your family to greet you, but the house is empty. Something's not right. Where is everyone? And what's happened here? Unravel the mystery for yourself in Gone Home, a story exploration game from The Fullbright Company.



Gone Home is an interactive exploration simulator. Interrogate every detail of a seemingly normal house to discover the story of the people who live there. Open any drawer and door. Pick up objects and examine them to discover clues. Uncover the events of one family's lives by investigating what they've left behind.
