Outsmarting your own parents
The setup is simple and a little absurd: your parents caught the bad grade and put you under house arrest. Your job is to get out anyway. You wander the house in first person, hunting for useful items and working out how they fit together, one small riddle at a time. The parents are the real puzzle. They walk their routes, and they notice things: a cabinet left open, a door ajar. So you close what you opened, keep your footsteps quiet, and duck out of sight when a parent turns down your hallway. The tension comes from how ordinary it all is. No monsters, just your mother heading for the kitchen while you are halfway up the stairs. If you enjoyed the cat-and-mouse hiding of Granny or Hello Neighbor, this scratches the same itch, in a smaller house with a grumpier cast.
