At Rest

I don't think it used to be like this...

It has been over twenty years since I last saw the home I spent my childhood in.
I thought I had forgotten what the house felt like, but now I find myself there again, wandering its empty rooms. It was a happier place, back then.

About the Game

At Rest is a short first-person experience about loneliness, loss, forgotten memories, and how dreams can blend all of them together. Travel through the four stages of sleep to sink deep into the story of a person's life – and with it, the story of another person's passing.

The game was created during a week-long Games Now! online jam in the autumn of 2023.
