Gone Home for Positive User Reviews
✓ Best interactive game ever.From the first time I stepped into that house to the last corner I turned, I had an idea of what the ending would be. It was dark, even a little gruesome. But what I found was above all expectations. This story will be in my heart forever. Maybe I’ll make a movie or short film out of it someday. You people are amazing, thank you. Shoot some hoops. -L Dog.Version: 1.0.2
✓ AmazingAnother great story game from the developers! Totally recommend. The story is easy to follow and although the map can be confusing at times (to help orient yourself) it came in very handy. You can also enable commentary mode that leaves notes all over the place if you want to know more about the game. This is my opinion. Maybe you’ll have a different one, but you’ll never know unless you try. So I recommend trying it for yourself. I think you’ll like it. I played other games produced by Annapurna Interactive as well called “what remains of Edith Finch” and “the unfinished swan” I recommend them as well. They make very good games.Version: 1.0.3
✓ IncredibleAbsolutely masterful with it’s atmosphere, incredibly interactive environment and great sound design, I was completely hooked right from the start and was incredibly happy with the story told. Thank you so much for this representation of all love as something important and pure. Thank you..Version: 1.0.3
✓ First ReviewI’m sad that there aren’t more games like this one. I throughly enjoyed playing this game. I only wish it was longer. It only took me a day to play, but I enjoyed it nonetheless. I hope to see more games like this from this company!.Version: 1.0.2
✓ Creepy But BeautifulAs I started this game, it felt kind of creepy. All throughout my exploration of the house I felt on edge, but it pulled me into the game. I was glad to find out that her parents and sister hadn’t actually gone missing. The love story between Sam and Lonnie was sweet and wonderful. Their storyline was a lovely surprise. This game was definitely worth the price!.Version: 1.0.3
✓ Such a thrilling gameSo I was scared and getting weird vibes about the house and was bored until I got to the part where they think there is a ghost in the house so I grabbed Stegner and hid in the parents room closet I still don’t understand the full game but it’s still good I like the details it’s just I want to know WHY the grandpa or whatever his role in the family is turned psycho.Version: 1.0.3
✓ I didn’t think it was short or sad at allI really enjoyed his game, thought it was very good. Exploring an unfamiliar empty house, stumbling across snippets of story about what your family has been going through in your absence and all the while being a bit spooked by the possibility of a sinister spirit being present. The level of interaction was phenomenal, if the house was a bit unrealistically sized. I loved how the stories unfolded and resolved themselves but I wish there had been more on the parents feelings towards each other. What is with kids running away from their problems too?! Otherwise, excellent game, if you like snooping..Version: 1.0.2
✓ Amazing GamePLEASE CREATE MORE! I have never written a review for an app before but this game was absolutely worth it! So much detail you can tell a lot of work went into it and it’s so fun and I love that you can take it at your own pace. Awesome story line it really unfolded wonderfully and kept you on the edge of your seat discovering the mystery. I could go for the game being a little longer but really all in all worth the buy for sure..Version: 1.0.2
✓ So greatThis game is so worth the money I had a really fun time adventuring throw the house. But this game is short if you know what your doing but I still think it is so amazing.Version: 1.0.1
✓ A+++This game is amazing. Played it on my MBP four or five years ago, but was interested to see how it translated over to mobile, and I was not disappointed (aside from figuring myself overdue on revisiting, I just liked the idea of owning it on my phone). People who are criticizing are missing the point. Also, the Letters To Katie, which some have complained about not being able to read are what I speculate to have been Sam’s narrations throughout the gameplay (obviously she’s not there reading to you as you’re hearing it). Anyways, if you’re in the mood to for immersive storytelling, 90’s nostalgia, a solid (albeit somewhat limited) riot grrl soundtrack, and emo feels, this game is totally worth a spin..Version: 1.0.2
✓ Best story, very atmosphericI have 3 versions of this game first bought off steam back in 2013! I have the console edition and now the mobile app version I love speed running this game!.Version: 1.0.3
✓ I LOVED IT😻I really had fun playing this game I’m pretty young and just getting my first cash card and stuff and this was one of the first games I bought and it was very good to my surprise😁I just wish it could be longer🙃other then that 5 stars.Version: 1.0.2
✓ FélicitationsSuper jeux, j’adore il y a beaucoup de détail à regarder et très bien traduit en français ....tres contente de mon achat malgré le fait qu’il est énergivore pour la batterie de mon appareil..Version: 1.0.3
✓ AmazingThis game was just really good. I loved the graphics, and the immersive storyline. It made me feel happy to get better representation in the media. Overall the game is really important to me, and I play it quite often..Version: 1.0.2
✓ Only a few hours of funI loved the game! It scared me because of the dark theme. It felt like an escape room game with more essence as to why you are there and searching for an answer. Well, the answer doesn't come as a shock when you’re about 60% into the game. I’m not disappointed, in fact, I enjoyed the game very much! I just feel like the 4.99 is a little to much for a short game. Details were superb and I loved the nostalgia of the 90s while playing..Version: 1.0.2
✓ Gone HomeThis game was so fun! The only thing is when I first got into the game I was confused on what to do and what to look at because you can pick up everything so I didn’t know what I should pick up and what I shouldn’t, so I ended up looking up how to play it but the game overall is fun the graphics is so good and I absolutely had fun playing this game. what I will say is that I would prefer if people the age 15 and up play because you really have to use your brain!! But it’s worth the $5.Version: 1.0.3
✓ 😋Pretty fun once I figured out the controls..Version: 1.0.1
✓ Beautiful game. Sweet storytelling.It reminded me of older adventure type of games. Thank you for building this and please do more. I love it for being so open to explore, for its slow pace and well-crafted and atmospheric environment. Great acting and the music make this a gem. Can’t wait for the next like this..Version: 1.0.2
✓ AmazingBeautiful game great story!! Would recommend!!.Version: 1.0.2
✓ AmazingI got this game because I’m on a mystery/puzzle game kick; I had no idea what it was about besides that you come home to an empty house. What I found was a great mystery and a poignant story about love. To top it all off it had great 90s gurl punk music. This made me cry more than once, both times because it’s just so sweet. Spoilers ahead......... When Sam talks about how intimate it was to dye Lonnie’s hair, I was blown away. That was so soft and lovely and poetic. This game is totally worth the money..Version: 1.0.3
✓ Nostalgia for the 90’sI would agree with other reviews. The objective of this game should be driven by curiosity and a desire to explore. Don’t rush to find clues and solve the game. Just slowly observe and discover items in the house. Some items have clues, other items just remind you of life in the 90’s and the nostalgia of growing up. Play this game when you have time and expect the entertainment to be more like reading a book that builds rather than a game with instant gratification. Highly recommended. I miss all the characters already and will play it again..Version: 1.0.2
✓ GreatI was a little bit skeptical because I saw the bad reviews of this game, but I was quite surprised. It’s super detailed and the story is quite an emotional rollercoaster. You can also find out interesting things about the family too, it’s a big house so there is quite a lot of exploring. Only down side is that i personally would’ve liked it to be longer. It lasted me about an hour..Version: 1.0.2
✓ NiceIt’s a big house where you can wander around looking in drawers, cupboards and examine everything. There’s a story there if you’re interested or just wander round the house. Looks very nice!.Version: 1.0.1
✓ Lives up to reputationUPDATE: Developer suggestion worked perfectly. Fixed all my problems. I finished the game tonight, and it was one of the most satisfying I’ve had in nearly 40 years of gaming. If you like story and environment experiences, don’t miss it. Now do Tacoma on iOS! ====================== I’ve been looking forward to this game on iOS for a long time, and so far I’m loving it. Very moody, great sound, and a mystery story that draws you in. I’m having targeting problems on iPad where the wrong item is often selected on iPad Pro in landscape: the target reticle lights correctly, but activating the selection often works on a nearby item, which is frustrating. Please fix this, but enjoying the game when I can work around that issue. Will update after fix..Version: 1.0.2
✓ The Best Game!This is the best horror/love story game I have ever played. It creeped me out, but once I got to see what the real meaning of it was, it was actually kind of heart-warming. I loved this game! I hope you can create more of these games maybe later in the future! I hope you respond to this, too. I wanna see what you’ll say about it. I’m only 10, and this was by far, one of the best games I have ever played ever since I got my phone a few years ago! I honestly think this was worth $5 dollars! At least I didn’t have to pay any more money for it. That’s all I have to say for now, bye!!.Version: 1.0.3
✓ AMAZINGThis game is absolutely amazing it was really fun a suspenseful the graphics were pretty good too. I would recommend this game if you ever bored or looking for a adventure. ⚠️don’t read further If you haven’t finished the game⚠️ the end was a little weird but good when I was in the attic I was expecting to know what happend to her family and Oscar but I was left with a hangcliffer if they made another game I would most definitely download it to see what happens and to see what Katie would do. After finishing the game I am glad to say that overall this game was amazing.Version: 1.0.3
✓ I never review……but this one deserves it. The detail in gameplay is phenomenal. I loved how everything was kept time appropriate- a total nostalgia trip. The writing is beautiful and obviously comes from professionals. This is not a game for quick thrill-seekers. It’s a thinker. This is the perfect game for people who want to chill out, be mildly creeped out and snoop around/deep dive into other peoples’ business. Go for it..Version: 1.0.3
✓ Great game, wish it was longer!I do wish there was a slightly scary aspect to this game -no horror or anything but this as a murder mystery game would be awesome too. Loved the fact that the sister is gay. Only complaint is that I played it in about 2 days and I really wish it could be longer..Version: 1.0.2
✓ Great Overall GameI thought this game was gripping, had a great storyline, and plus, the graphics are amazing. I had so much fun uncovering all the mystery’s, and I liked that you found something, such as a band poster, and then found a note or such explaining it. I don’t know why but I just love that kind of story telling. I just have one thing though, and it’s not anything bad however, I am kind of a scaredy-cat, and it took my a while to not be a little off-putted when opening dark rooms and looking out the stormy windows. I know it’s not a scary game, and that you can make it so that all the lights are already on, but I feel it definitely changes the experience. Just a little note for anyone who doesn’t do so well with the dark and such. Other then that I just love this game. Well, ta-ta!.Version: 1.0.2
✓ Fun but too shortI loved this game! The ending wasn’t too shocking but it was fun going through and feeling like you’re back in the 90s. I do wish it was longer, I finished it in a few hours. For the price, it is a little frustrating. But the graphics are really great and the storyline is pretty good. Left me with some questions. It kind of leaves you to imply what happened without ever really saying it..Version: 1.0.2
✓ Definitely worth a play!I loved this game. It was meticulously planned, every detail making part of a story. The design was incredible and the house was full of tricks and turns. My one criticism would be that it was a bit short. I must have played for around maybe 40 minutes before it finished which for me was a bit of a disappointment because I truly loved playing it. Overall though, I thoroughly recommend it!.Version: 1.0.1
✓ Beautiful storySam could be an exact replica of myself as a teenager. This story hit almost uncomfortably close to home for me, and I’m positive it could do the same for numerous queer youth. Thank you for this beautiful experience and thank you for telling our stories..Version: 1.0.2
✓ Beautiful, immersive, meaningfulAs the title says. This game is a masterpiece in dialogue and discovery, start to finish..Version: 1.0.1
✓ So far so good.So far so good..Version: 1.0.1
✓ A good timeI enjoyed playing this game, although the graphics are a little lacking. The controls are intuitive, despite what some other reviews have said (sausage fingered reviewers). Spoiler Ahead: There are no ghosts or jump scares at all, despite the creepy atmosphere..Version: 1.0.2
✓ Total ImmersionJust Brilliant.Version: 1.0.2
✓ Incredible StorytellingWow. This game is so enjoyable. I intended to take a break & play it over a couple days but I just kept going until the end. Another top-tier storytelling game from them. Florence is a tear-jerker. This is more sentimental, even if it starts off kind of scary..Version: 1.0.3
✓ AwesomeIt’s really realistic and the best thing it’s that the game doesn’t crash. This is funny to play it and I cannot get rid off of it :D.Version: 1.0.1
✓ Amazing gameThe only reason I wouldn’t put this game at 5 stars would be the price. Now don’t get me wrong i love the game. I just personally think 7 dollars is a bit much for like a 2 hour long game. However besides the slightly steep price I would immensely recommend this game. The game is beautifully done. And I love the ending Some notes: 1) I find the controls rather really easy in fact easier than most games I’ve played 2) it’s not a jump scare game although it does have a rather creepy vibe 3) if you ever think you are stuck look at the map to see if there are any rooms or passages you haven’t gone in yet 4) the game is an interesting take on puzzle games bc while it is easy it’s also very fun.Version: 1.0.2
✓ An original interactive story formatVery well done - Each of the “reveals” presents itself naturally as you explore the environment. A fair amount of the tale is done through monologue, so if you prefer to play without sound (as I do) simply turn on the subtitles option..Version: 1.0.2
✓ Amazing make a sequel!! And just one thing thoAmazing make a sequel!! And just one thing tho next Time make it so it does not make my iPad fry and eat my battery. It was a little creepy when I saw the red splatter in the tub and the oijia board but overall it was good 9.5/10.Version: 1.0.3
✓ Sweet GameI can't believe it took me so long to find this gem of a game. It's all my favorite aspects of play with none of the detractors. There's a big creepy house to explore, no worries that anything is going to attack or startle you, the calming/meditative sounds of a rainstorm, and an intriguing story that unfolds along the way. Off to look for more from these developers!.Version: 1.0.3
✓ Critically an expressive gameThe game was a very tender. Even if my own views don’t agree with the characters, I cannot deny that the creator of the game, recognizes very well the desire to escape in a trapped and sometimes forbidden love. It was sweet, not a game for everyone though..Version: 1.0.3
✓ Favorite game of all timeGone Home is, without a hint of exaggeration, my favorite game of all time. It falls within the "walking simulator" genre -- a label that was intended to be derisive but has turned out games like this, Life Is Strange, and Firewatch. This game has one of the most compelling stories I've ever encountered in almost 30 years of gaming. I've played and replayed it almost 10 times. Love that soundtrack too 🙏🏻.Version: 1.0.2
✓ A Masterpiece!I’ve probably bought this game three times now, my Mac, PS4 and now iPad Pro. The story really resonates with me, really brilliant 90s nostalgia. Read up some critic reviews online before purchasing to see its for you, as this falls in the genre ‘walking simulator’ and to be honest ranks as one of the best still today 😀.Version: 1.0.1
✓ Very good gameAnd it has the music from amnesia the dark decent.Version: 1.0.2
✓ YOU NEED TO GET THIS GAMEYou need this game yes it costs seven dollars but trust me it’s worth it and it’s soooooo much fun.Version: 1.0.2
✓ I will follow this game wherever it goesA great port of a terrific game. Thanks for bringing this touching story to mobile. I’ve played this through several times and it never fails to make me feel sadness and joy all wrapped up in a kicking soundtrack..Version: 1.0.2
✓ LOVE LOVE LOVE!!!I honestly can not recommend this game enough. It’s more like an interactive story. You just go through the house with no enemies, no one chasing you, and you uncover a beautiful story that years ago gave this little q*eer person (me) such warm fuzzies!!! So happy to see it’s in the App Store! I’ve already played it and I spent the money again just to give recognition to LGBTQIAA+ content!! Thank you!!!.Version: 1.0.3
✓ This game was amazingThe story line and everything was amazing! I hope more games like this are made.Version: 1.0.2
✓ AMAZINGThe story plot of this really surprised me. I enjoyed playing and looking around the house. The end really excited me. I think there should be a second one where Katie tries to find Sam or something like that. Either way I look forward to your guys’ next game!.Version: 1.0.2
✓ Absolutely beautifulHonestly I’m very surprised to see all the negative reviews on this game, the game is so much more than in the description. Yes, granted it may be a love story instead of a puzzle but it’s such an amazing love story, even at the very last tape I felt like I WAS Sam, I felt heartbroken at the end and it left me breathless. In my opinion this game deserves much more positive feedback, considering how hard it is to write and make a story as great as this..Version: 1.0.2
✓ What kind of game?Is this a horror game? If no, why I am terrified while I am playing. Background sounds are so scary! Otherwise good game. Just go in and explore. Controls are a bit difficult though..Version: 1.0.1
✓ Amazing detail, extremely heartwarmingThere seems to be a split in the reviews of this game because a group of people are purchasing it expecting something different from what the game truly is. It is not an action based game for those who want instant gratification. Rather it’s extremely rewarding for people who are detail oriented and want to see a story play out in front of their eyes. If you take the time to explore thoroughly there is not one storyline but five separate ones exploring all the members of the family. Nothing in the background is done without care. For example if you zoom in on the family’s VHS collection you received a very charming throwback to the 90s ex. A particularly large X-Files obsession. I may have finished this game in an afternoon but it was extremely enriching experience I am perfectly happy paying 6.99 to receive it..Version: 1.0.2
✓ For those that love detailsI really like collecting every last little item when I play games and this was perfect for me. I liked wandering around and inspecting the house while the story unfolded. Sure it’s not “hard” but it’s not meant to be. I’m a 90’s kid and listened (and still do listen) to Bratmobile and Heavens to Betsy, so that was a super fun surprise!! Graphics are great, I didn’t come across any bugs, and the game led me easily from one point to the next without any confusion. I’ll definitely be looking forward to any future games..Version: 1.0.2
✓ Excellent, really enjoyed!This is a story based game full of detail which reveal clues about the main plot and sub plots. Your encouraged to look through these clues to progress through the game so I can understand why some might not have the patience for this sort of experience. If you like taking your time though and reading through the numerous letters and newspaper articles throughout the house, this can be a really rewarding game. The main story was interesting and had a pleasant and satisfying ending. Think of this as more of a story telling experience and if that’s your thing then this is the game for you!.Version: 1.0.2
