About This Game


The Witch’s House, originally released in 2012, falls within the tradition of Japanese horror RPGs with heavy emphasis on puzzle-solving and jump scares. Among other entries in the genre such as Ib and Ao Oni, The Witch’s House surprised fans with pixel-art that conceals truly frightening horror.

The Witch’s House is deliberately designed with traps at *almost* every turn--sudden death is unpredictable and it keeps players on their toes. Anything can happen at any time.

With completely remastered visuals, The Witch’s House MV will feel fresh to even the most familiar old-school fans. Fans will also be greeted by a new difficulty mode that includes new events upon completion of the base game.



  • A horror atmosphere wherein players solve puzzles based on clues found in the house.
  • Completely reimagined graphics that make for a beautifully terrifying experience.
  • Brand new unlockable difficulty mode with new events and dialogue.
  • Violence and gore that are not recommended for the squeamish. Player discretion advised.
  • Sudden deaths that lurk around every corner and await every misstep.
  • Items must be used deliberately as players solve the puzzles for themselves.
  • Fixed save points (just keep an eye out for the talking black cat).
  • Game pads are supported and recommended.
  • Head phones *strongly* recommended.



Hello. I'm Fummy, creator of The Witch's House MV.
I'm happy to announce that we're finally ready to release the game.

The Witch's House MV is an RPG Maker MV remake of the original game, which was released back in 2012.

We remade all the graphics, including map tiles and character sprites, and worked hard to enhance the atmosphere and 2D beauty in The Witch's House. It took us five times as many hours to create this version, but we feel like we've finally managed to satisfy ourselves.

Aside from graphical improvements, we also added two new difficulty settings that was not present in the free version.

The first difficulty setting is a more accessible one that allows you to instantly retry. The other difficulty setting is a more difficult one which is only unlocked by those who manage to reach the game's true ending.

  • "The normal difficulty isn't enough to satisfy me..."
  • "I'm not averse to instantly dying upon reaching new areas."

If either of these describe you, then we recommend you give this new difficulty a try. You also may be able to uncover some new story bits concerning "her"...

The world of The Witch's House has been reborn anew, and we sincerely hope you'll all enjoy it.



My name is Dan Stern and I’m the Scholar of the First Deal at DANGEN Entertainment (sounds fancy, but it means I work with the devs to get their games released so you can play them).

Japan has a longer tradition in 16-bit horror games because of the variety of games that was released on the Super Famicom. But that wasn’t something I experienced because of growing up in the West. It wasn’t until I discovered The Witch’s House some years ago that I learned 16-bit games can scare me just as well as high-res AAA games made in 3D. I learned that even in pixel-art, horror is possible; it just depends on the creator’s mastery of atmosphere and timing. Fummy-san absolutely has that mastery and as silly as it sounds, I’ve never had so much fun dying a lot in a video game.

I was ecstatic to find out that not only is there a remaster of my favorite indie horror classic, but that DANGEN could help to get that game in front of fans that I know will love it. Playing The Witch’s House MV feels like a totally new experience and I’m sure you’ll have fun with the new content after you finish your first playthrough.

Cheers!

Impressive for an RPG Maker game. It's short (took me less than 2 hours to beat). The puzzles are okay and the writing is also okay, but the vibes are great and the way you just die is very funny and entertaining. Nothing really required that much outside-the-box thinking though, most of the puzzles were just going through motions or would be obtuse in a way that was mostly the game not communicating well enough. I enjoyed things okay but by the time we were reaching the end I was already feeling like I wanted it to hurry up and be over. Solid 3/5 and definitely worth checking out if you like RPG maker stuff or really love horror adventure games.

Wow, what a game ... certainly deserved to be one of the most well known RPG Maker Horror Games out there! Getting the True Ending for the first time gives you such a terrifying realization of what just happened - speechless and impressed was I. The puzzles were well made and the few scares the game has were on point - scared the shit out of me ;-; I adored the story as well - I will be buying the 2 Manga Volumes to see more of it. Game is quite short, but that's no negative: First playthrough took me around 48min I got the "Secret Ending" (basically a no death run) on my fourth try which only took 30min I also did the "Bleak Ending" (just afk'ing for 1h) to 100% see all it has to offer At last, I've beaten the game on "Extra" difficulty which took me around an hour

I remember playing this during the 2010s RPG Maker craze and liking it. I did not remember anything at all, and after watching my friend playthrough it in 2025 it reminded me how special these little games were. There's so many creative ideas and just generally fun game design moments, but most of all, the story, while extremely simple is also really unforgettable. Amazing game.

One of my all-time favorite rpgmaker horror games growing up, and this remake does not disappoint. There's even a hard mode with added deaths, which I loved!

Fun enough game if you're into RPG maker horror, but unfortunately the short playtime does make it a hard sell given the price-tag. If you like the style of game and you can get it at 75% + discount it may be worth picking up.
