Summary
Emily and her college buddies have gathered at a remote rental house to watch the Perseid meteor shower. They try to rekindle the bonds they once had, but lingering emotional wounds and social anxieties leave Emily feeling more alone than ever. When the power suddenly goes out, it's almost a relief. But under the cover of darkness, a mysterious killer picks them off one by one. If Emily can't find a way out, she'll be trapped in this nightmare forever.
Evade the killer, solve the house's devious puzzles, and reconnect with your friends. Escaping the house may seem impossible at first, but with each attempt to put the pieces together, the bloodstained picture becomes more and more clear.

Critic Reviews4
Homebody is unnerving. The puzzles are difficult, and it’s extremely rewarding when you slowly chip away at them as you uncover the secrets of the house. Equally, it’s immersive — you’ll slowly morph into the player character’s shoes and feel her fear of isolation. The only trouble with Homebody is it eventually feels less and less like a horror game, as you’ll eventually realize that it’s not all that scary — and quite forgiving.

Homebody is a love letter to the Original PlayStation era of point-and-click survival horror. It has an interesting mystery, fun puzzles, engaging mechanics, and a fair hint system that kept me coming back! A hearty recommendation for fans of the genre!

Homebody is a good mix of survival horror and challenging puzzles set against a backdrop of psychological themes. While the time loop mechanic can lead to repetitive moments, the engaging storytelling and puzzles make up for any shortcomings. The game's retro graphics combined with well-executed sound design create an atmosphere. This is a good "retro-horror", which is interesting to play not only for fans of retro, but also for all lovers of horror or puzzles.
