A Home Between Us

A Home Between Us is a slice-of-life visual novel and life sim for players who want a quiet, grounded story over spectacle. The tone is heavy and reflective, with small moments carrying more weight than any big event.

Story

Riku raised his younger sisters alone after losing his parents too soon, trading away school, friends, and any future of his own so they could have one. Now they're grown and gone, and he's left alone in the same worn apartment, stuck in a routine that stopped meaning anything. A chance encounter one night with a NEET on his walk home starts to pull him out of that loop.

Gameplay

Play unfolds as a point-and-click sandbox seen through Riku's eyes, where daily routine — working, managing money, keeping himself fed — sets the pace for everything else. Choices about how to spend limited time and stats shape how the days play out, with a difficulty setting that adjusts how harsh that pressure feels. Around this survival loop, new encounters slowly open up paths away from the apartment ceiling he's memorized.

Features
