You’re not sure what led you to enter Hill House, that ancient and myth-haunted mansion just beyond the edge of town. Perhaps you entered on a dare, perhaps you were just curious, or perhaps you passed through the front doors in a dream. Whatever the reason, you come to your senses deep within the crumbling ruin, in the dilapidated main hall. The way back to the front door is gone, the House has you and it does not want to let you go. It will use every trick to keep you trapped within itself.
Can you navigate shifting hallways, shambling puppets, and your own changing body long enough to find the way back to the front door? And if you find it, will you even want to leave anymore?
Hill House is a game of exploration and transformation designed for a single player, inspired by the “Hill House” thread from the UnendingBE Addventure. In the game, the Player will build out the hallways and rooms of Hill House in an effort to find the exit, collecting items and avoiding Denizens. Most of the items will leave the Player transformed in some way, granting advantages or disadvantages that can affect how the game progresses.
The game is all print-and-play, and requires only a few extra bits (dice, something to use as tokens or markers). Download the .pdf below to read through the rules and get all the cards and tiles required to play!
