Them: The Summoning

About

You arrive at a friend's home after his urgent call only to find him grieving his wife's recent death. His sudden and strange passing leaves you as the prime suspect in two murders. Navigate a shifting investigation where environmental puzzles and cryptic mini-games reveal clues. A ghostly presence offers fragmented guidance as you piece together truths hidden beyond reality's edge. Choices matter in this nonlinear mystery where survival depends on solving abstract challenges and outmaneuvering a determined investigator. The game's surreal tone and unsettling atmosphere set it apart. Puzzles range from clever to baffling, often defying conventional logic. Mini-games feel distinct but occasionally disjointed. While the 8-hour runtime leans short, the eerie visuals and unpredictable narrative create a lasting impression. Players drawn to psychological mysteries and offbeat storytelling might appreciate the ride despite some tonal inconsistencies. The ghostly companion adds a quiet layer of unease without overexplaining the game's stranger moments.
