https://youtu.be/qvvU3dl5EwY https://rumble.com/v2pjav5-birds-arent-real-gameplay-indie-horror-game.html A new puzzle horror game came out today and it's inspired by the novel 'The Memory Police' by Yoko Ogawa. The game itself is not bad, even though there are a lot of reused assets, it has a creepy atmosphere even though is not really scary, the performance is good, but there is no graphics settings and no saving in this game.

Well done and unique short story. Good graphics and no bugs (you never know when the game is new :D). I also liked the puzzles. The last one was a bit tricky, but it all made sense. My playthrough: https://youtu.be/0964r9sM-a4

One of the puzzles didn't work and aside from that it just felt like I was reading a book.

This house again? The story is intriguing enough to want to see it through to the end. However, the game crashed after about 20 minutes. Disappointing.
