THE PACT

They knock. You listen.

When you moved in,
you agreed to the Pact.

Keep the balance.
Let the real ones in.

Open the door for those who are human.
Welcome enough of them, and you’ll survive the night.
Ignore too many…
and the building forgets you.
You fade.
Just like the last tenant.

But be careful—
some are not human.

They know the Pact.
They wear familiar voices.
They wear familiar skin.

If you open the door for one of them… it’s over.

Trust wisely.

Listen closely.

Stay human.

Game Info:

Hi!

This game is called Knock Knock. It’s part of a short prototype series where I try to build horror game ideas in 1–3 days, just to get a minimum viable concept out there.

I should note, this is more of a "demo reel" than a game, just to get the feel of how a fully fleshed out product would be (if you quit after 2 minutes, fully understandable, I don't expect anyone to try to "play" it).

Once I’ve made around 5–10 of these, I’ll go back, gather feedback, and pick one to turn into a fully fleshed-out game.

This is Prototype #2 — my first was Lights Out, which you can check out on my itch.io: https://jibbyie.itch.io/lights-out

This one’s loosely inspired by the Mandela Catalogue and the whole “fake humans” genre. If you’ve got ideas for my next prototype, feel free to hit me up!

I’d seriously appreciate any feedback.
This isn’t a finished product — I built it in just under 3 days, but I got a bunch of friends to voice the characters, so I might actually turn this into my first full Steam release. Who knows!

Thanks for playing 🙏
