A pretty funny 'horror' story about...the Death Shack!, September 15, 2017

Related reviews: less than 15 minutes

This game uses some of the more cinematic qualities of Adrift.

It's a speed-IF, so it was written in just 3 hours. But it has really fun animations and text effects. The death shack becomes a recurring character that destroys all in its path. I especially laughed at the hotel scene.
