Mortgage nightmares

Your very own apartment, even if it's a 20-year mortgage – what could be better? Maybe the fact that Lena isn’t the only one living in this apartment? Or maybe they're not exactly people...

About the Game

A slice-of-life visual novel with an unusual plot. Befriend your new neighbors and try to get along with them!



Lena is an ordinary freelance designer who finally decides to move out of her parents' house into a mortgage-bought apartment. However, as soon as she crosses the threshold, strange things start happening – mysterious reflections in the mirror, groceries ending up in the trash...

It seems there's more to it than meets the eye. But what exactly is happening? You'll need to figure it out quickly before you run out of money for replacing all the broken light bulbs...



Series format - each episode can be played in chronological order or individually;

Interactive elements - interact with objects and move around the apartment;

Real-life helper - the journal helps you deal with adult life challenges like paying utilities, obtaining necessary documents, and other grown-up problems;

Numerous plot illustrations for every amusing (and not so amusing) situation;

Russian amateur voice acting by people passionate about the project;

And, of course, jokes about the mortgage!
