Haus Of Irndrous
Welcome to the Afgarn Mansion. Don’t ask why it’s empty. Nor why the lights flicker. The more you ask, the more they’ll want to answer. Find your father. If you hear voices, don’t respond. The experiments are still inside. They know you entered. And they’re eager to have you close.

The Story
Ryle received a strange letter from his father, after years of being away from home. In it, his father revealed that something had gone terribly wrong at the corporation where he worked. After a long journey, Ryle arrived deep within the Afgarn Mansion… and found that the security protocol had already been activated. The place was collapsing. He had only one option: find the key and get out before it was too late.
The protocol was clear:
“DO NOT speak to any experiments.”
As he moved forward, Ryle confirmed that several laboratories were still operational. The company had attempted to alter human DNA… and failed, fatally.
The experiments had survived. Mutated, hostile, and with unnatural abilities: phasing through walls, sensing movement… and something more.
They already knew he was there.
And they were waiting for him.
BRIEF EXPLANATION OF THE GAME:
Mechanics
In Haus of Irndrous, your stamina is limited—push yourself too hard, and you'll be in danger. Your flashlight is your only hope in the darkness, but it won’t always work. Each area contains puzzles that will test your observation and logic… all while you're being hunted by brutal enemies twisted by genetic experiments. They don't just want to catch you; they were designed to tear you apart.
Immersive Narrative
The story in Haus of Irndrous isn't handed to you—it’s uncovered piece by piece. Hidden radios, scattered notes, and the mansion’s eerie atmosphere slowly reveal the truth. Each audio log provides clues to solve puzzles or fragments of the dark past of the Afgarn Corporation and its inhuman experiments. Exploration and curiosity are rewarded, making you an active part of the mystery.

80s-Inspired Atmosphere
Dive into a retro nightmare. Haus of Irndrous draws heavily from the 1980s, blending the mansion's decadent elegance with period technology—vintage radios, VHS-style visual and sound effects. The result is a deeply immersive experience that evokes classic psychological horror.
Progression and Challenge
Every conquered area raises the stakes. Enemies become more aggressive, puzzles more complex, and environments more oppressive. The constant sense of danger makes every bit of progress feel like a true victory.
