Residential Phenomena Hotline – A paranormal detective horror game (Free Browser Prototype)
Play here: Itch.io - Residential Phenomena Hotline by Enabler Games

Hi! I'm developing Residential Phenomena Hotline, an indie narrative horror game where you work the night shift for a paranormal support service.

Residents report strange things happening in their homes. Your job is to question them, examine evidence, search the company intranet, and figure out what's really going on.

👁️ The first playable prototype is now available for free on itch.io!

It's playable directly in your browser, although the full game will be released for PC.

I'd love some honest feedback, especially on the gameplay, investigation mechanics, and horror atmosphere.

Thanks for giving it a try!

See you on the night shift. 👁️

Playing as night-shift paranormal customer support is such a clever angle haha. When questioning residents, do different dialogue choices actually change the direction of the investigation, or mainly affect the order you find clues?

Yes. The dialogue choices you make, the documents you read, and the clues you mark affect the direction of the investigation and the possible outcome.
In the first available prototype case, you can experiment with this partially. We are working on new cases and intend to add them in a demo shortly.

Oh, so it's not just dialogue choices—the documents you read and the clues you tag also affect the outcome. Got it! We're currently testing ISECAI, a free-text web AI anime RPG, and we'd love to hear from narrative game creators on how well our characters handle player choices. Would you be up for trying a short intro whenever you're free? If you're interested, I can drop the link and a personal invite code right here—no formal review needed.
