HAUS is a survival horror game in which a boy named Lawrence must hide from nightmarish figures in his home while searching for his missing father. He cannot fight, so stealth is the only defence.

HAUS is a survival horror game in which the player controls Lawrence, a young boy who wakes alone in the middle of the night. After a strange event, grotesque figures roam the hallways of his home, and his father is missing. The player explores the house, uncovers the mystery of a ritual behind the events, and searches for Lawrence’s father.

Lawrence cannot fight, so the player must run and hide to survive. Wardrobes, boxes and corners can be used to stay out of sight of the creatures hunting him, and direct confrontation is lethal. While hidden, Lawrence panics, and the player must help him stay calm. If this fails, he is discovered. Puzzles block the player’s path as the house is explored.

The game uses a Gothic art style inspired by the work of Tim Burton. Jumpscares, death sequences and narrative moments are presented as hand-painted 2D cinematics, with an aesthetic inspired by the analogue horror series The Walten Files.
