THE NEW TENANT

THE NEW TENANT is a first-person psychological horror game about isolation, control, and sharing a home with someone who should not be watching you. You are a university student looking for a cheap place to stay. You find an ad for a shared apartment. The landlord is old, quiet, and polite. He has rules. Do not go out late. Do not lock your door. Do not ask about the previous tenant. At first, everything feels normal. You share the same kitchen. You hear footsteps at night. You notice small changes when you return to your room. Then, one night, you hear the sound of a chain lock. The door is locked from the outside. You rented a room to survive university. He rented you to survive loneliness. You are the new tenant. But you may not be the first.
