About This Game

Girl in the Attic is a visual novel survival game that blends tension, stealth, and quiet desperation. You play as a girl hiding in the crawlspace above a man’s house—unknown to him, or so you hope. Your only goal is to survive. To last another day. To sneak down into his home while he sleeps. To steal scraps of food, find water, patch the leaks, and maybe figure out why you're here at all.

But be careful. He hears things. He notices things. And he’s not alone in the house.

Every night is a gamble. Every choice matters. Stay too long, and you might not make it back to the attic. Stay too hungry, and you might not care.

How to Play

Explore and Scavenge

Slip out of the attic when it’s safe and search the house for food, water, and tools. Every room offers something useful—or something terrifying.

Stay Hidden

Time your movements, watch his routines, and avoid being seen or heard. Hide under furniture. Hold your breath. Don’t leave anything out of place.

Manage Your Needs

You’ll need to eat, drink, and rest to stay alive. Your mental state matters, too. Starvation can cloud your judgment. Sleep deprivation makes you sloppy.
