About the Game

The Viewing is a “spot the difference” puzzle horror game. In this game, you play as a rookie real estate agent that’s part of ABC Mourning Co. the top real estate agency in the area. As part of your onboarding, you are required to sell these sets of property to the highest bidder. However, what your superiors didn’t tell you is that the properties are in fact haunted and it’s your job to monitor and ensure all the rooms are exactly as they were the day before the next viewing.

You can check on each room that’s been pictured on the listing but also change the camera view from daylight to night vision to make sure no pesky anomaly comes around as the night progresses. An anomaly can be anything from a piece of furniture that’s been moved to an extra plant appearing in front of the camera but can also include - unwanted guests! These can come in forms like cats and mice from the neighbours next door or could be more. You will have to mark them in your camera and fix it as quickly as possible.

Anomalies appear at random so players can’t predict what will happen next. Too many of these anomalies around means the game is over. The goal is to survive from midnight till 6am the next day before the next property viewing.
