Description
Destroy the evil at the heart of a haunted manor! As an orphan, you discovered your ability to commune with the spirit world and ghosts. When your uncle Kent mysteriously disappears, you'll embark on a journey to find out what really happened. With your trusty companion Devanand at your side, you make your way to Darnecroy Manor, where Kent was last seen. It is...The House.
"Heart of the House" is 360,000-word interactive Gothic novel by Nissa Campbell. It's entirely text-based—without graphics or sound effects—and fueled by the vast, unstoppable power of your imagination.
Within the manor, you'll encounter the master, Lord Bastian Reaves; his mysterious servants, Oriana and Loren; and the thousands of spirits teeming around and in this haunted mansion. But will you shatter the power that binds the ghosts to the House, or claim it for yourself? Can love bloom in a haunted house? Most importantly, how will you escape when the House comes for you?
• Play as male, female, or non-binary; gay, straight, bi, ace, or poly
• Explore the halls of the House, even as they seem to shift before your eyes
• Encounter ghosts, spirits, and echoes, as you search for your lost Uncle Kent
• Fight against an ancient evil or embrace its demonic gifts
• Indulge in steamy, chaste, sweet, or provocative romances, or go it alone
• Exploit the secrets you find for self-serving ends or use them to help your friends
• Defeat your greatest fears in bone-chilling moments of terror...if you can
• Choose whom you can save, if anyone, from the horrors the House contains
For some, there may be no escape from The Heart of the House.

Ratings and Reviews
Wow
This game!!! I am in love with this game, I’ve recommended it to all my friends and my girlfriend!
The gender options are amazing and so refreshing to see. The LIs are all different and none of them are forced on you, not even the male option! They’re not only part of the story if they’re an LI as well!!
The plot is also interesting and new. I’ll admit, some parts confused me but that’s probably my own fault because I read too quickly and don’t always notice the details. I couldn’t get enough of this app and had to stop from reading quite a few times because I didn’t want to finish it too quickly!
TL; DR- Get this app. You won’t regret it.
Tip: You can play the first part of it online for free to see if you want to buy it.
An engaging and well written story.
‘Heart of the House’ is a very fun story to play through, with a creepy and interesting plot, well developed characters and meaningful choices. I especially liked how it invoked Victorian novels while putting a modernised twist on them, and the way it let your relationships with other characters develop clearly and realistically.
However, it could have been improved with some kind of save system. I played through until the very end of the story, and made a decision that landed me with a bad ending. To get a better one I had to replay the entire game, which took quite a while as it’s fairly long. Despite this, it’s still a very enjoyable experience and I’d definitely recommend it!
